I have a new flash piece today for subscribers to both @[email protected] and @[email protected] . This one is about a very talkative moon eel with a few eggs ready to hatch.

‘I’ve done some more rummaging through here. What’s this other lifeform? Here you are some time ago referring to them as… babe. Babe like baby? Did you at some point harvest them from your own organs? Here it looks like you’re wanting to see them again. Is that natural? Would they find it odd? Wanting to see them after all this time away?’ // ‘The Moon Eel Bennett in Conversation with the Astronaut Who Came Back for It’, a story by R.T. Ester with art by Alex Maniezo

It’s January 9, and I just read the best article I will read all month.
“Social Quitting” by @pluralistic
“Once a platform has its users and business customers locked in, it can enshittify its service to the point of near uselessness without losing either, allocating all the useful surplus in the business to its shareholders.”
“The important thing about the Fediverse isn’t that it’s noncommercial or decentralized—it’s that its design impedes surplus harvesting.”
Contract signed on my first story acceptance this year 🙏🤞
