Re-sharing this from "The Road" by Cormac McCarthy, it's so good.

"He was a long time going to sleep. After a while he turned and looked at the man. His face in the small light streaked with black from the rain like some old-world thespian. Can I ask you something? he said.
Yes. Of course.
Are we going to die?
Sometime. Not now.
And we're still going south.
Yes.
So we'll be warm.
Yes.
Okay.
Okay what?
Nothing. Just okay.
Go to sleep.
Okay.
I'm going to blow out the lamp. Is that okay?
Yes. That's okay.
And then later in the darkness: Can I ask you something?
Yes. Of course you can.
What would you do if I died?
If you died I would want to die too.
So you could be with me?
Yes. So I could be with you.
Okay.
He lay listening to the water drip in the woods. Bedrock, this. The cold and the silence. The ashes of the late world carried on the bleak and temporal winds to and fro in the void. Carried forth and scattered and carried forth again. Everything uncoupled from its shoring. Unsupported in the ashen air. Sustained by a breath, trembling and brief. If only my heart were stone.

Upcoming co-op driving and looting horror game The Road looks like a good laugh

I hesitate to use the term "friendslop" but The Road seems to fit in nicely with the recent rise of online co-op games and actually looks good fun.

Posted for the #BlueSkyArtShow taking place all day Saturday, 27 September 2025. The theme is #TheRoad
I’m not sure that reading #TheRoad at bedtime is the best way to ease into a restful sleep.
