  • Even the Machine Gets a Cushion
    Oct 24 2025
    You know how algorithms already try to make hiring fair, filtering resumes to remove human bias. A logical goal. But what happens when that logic takes over completely?

    Imagine your next job interview isn't a conversation. Instead, you walk a 'Confidence Path' while sensors analyze your heartbeat, your micro-expressions, your authenticity. What does a system like that do with a flicker of raw, messy honesty it wasn't programmed to expect?

    The following narrative is a thought experiment that walks that very path, exploring a world where your most human flaw might just be your most valuable asset.

    This is Even the Machine Gets a Cushion.

  • The Sound Under Everything
    Oct 22 2025
    You flip a switch, and the lights just… work. It’s easy to forget the immense, complex machine humming just beneath the surface, keeping everything running.

    Now, imagine a future powered not by coal or wind, but by the Earth's own furnace. A world where engineers have drilled miles deep, right beside veins of magma, to harness geothermal energy on a scale we can barely comprehend. It's clean, it's powerful... but it's also profoundly dangerous. When this system fails, it doesn't just flicker the lights. It threatens to boil the very ground beneath your feet.

    What does it demand of the people who have to maintain it? This story is a thought experiment about the human price of progress, set in a world where keeping the lights on means sending someone down into the heat.

    This is The Sound Under Everything.

  • Nine Minutes, Anchored
    Oct 20 2025
    You hold a carefully edited version of your life in your pocket. A gallery of your best moments, where the bad days can be deleted with a tap.

    Now, imagine a world where you can’t hit delete. Where storage is so cheap that everything is recorded, and a public, decentralized ledger ensures that certain truths can never be erased. This creates a fascinating paradox. A perfect, unchangeable record is a powerful tool for justice. But what if the proof you need to expose a crime is forever tied to your own ugliest moment? Would you publish it to a permanent archive, knowing you could never take it back?

    This is a story built to explore that exact dilemma. A thought experiment about the price of a world that refuses to forget.

    This is Nine Minutes, Anchored.
