Reality checking The Future since 2027. Monday, August 8, 2011. But know that it will get worse from here. And let that be a warning to all of the Security Council plutocracies. Those shining turds lauded as the crown jewels of human civilizational venture with their "record profits" and 1.5% GDP "growth." You too, China? Go on, tread. Do it. What all these "politicians" playing their parts in kangaroo court democracy need is another holiday. A holiday in Cambodia. And they'll get it, soon enough.

Post Futures: Terminus Machina: The Firestopper
http://postfutures.blogspot.com/2012/07/terminus-machina-firestopper.html
Reality checking The Future since 2027. Friday, July 20, 2012. Terminus Machina: The Firestopper. Sunrise really, really had to. Sunrise tries hard not to be a baby, she really does. Her lungs burned bad, like the time she got the lung-glass disease. “Gentic Enigeering” mom said is what caused it. The metal shaft runs up the guide rails, the filed nock clinking against the trigger mechanism of the crossbow. Sunrise likes this sound and it makes her smile. The wind changes, the smoke gets in Sunrise’...

Reality checking The Future since 2027. Monday, January 23, 2012. Terminus Machina: Making Shift. Leeloo strode down Kurzweil and 3rd, past the Amazing Bass display windows that once showcased hardcovers and paperbacks, thick freshly minted tomes of deep thought and edification, great literature to science fiction to Big Idea bestsellers. She traced a single digit through the grimy ash acreeting on the glass like a child fingerpainting dreams into a breath-fogged backseat window. 8220;Insane to think a w...

Reality checking The Future since 2027. Friday, May 18, 2012. It’d been ages since he’d actually seen un-mediated, unpolished urban decay in meatspace, let alone actually had to wallow in it, and it made Jack’s skin crawl with a kind of ambient tension and Rousseau-esque guilt. It made his head hurt more to think about what it meant that he felt such revulsion toward reality. Visions of the Agent Smith-Morpheus showdown asserted themselves like popup ads into his mind’s eye. Jack pulled up the boy’...

Reality checking The Future since 2027. Tuesday, April 5, 2011. Terminus Machina: "The Troubleshooter". It started out a statistically average day. Jack Newman shuddered awake to a cliché post-nu-folk track piped in through a cochlear implant, autotuned Dylan croak squeezed into the skinny jeans of bit-rotted Atari music nostalgia. “Yes and how many times must the times go a-changing, before the last will be first, and first be last? And Jack continued his day, statistically average. Jack wiped the infob...
