In the soul-crushing beige of an Idaho IRS office, where fluorescent lights hum endless and the radio loops forgotten hits, Elliot toils over tax forms, auditing losses that mirror his own. Trapped in a purgatory of mildew-stained carpets and petty office wars, he’s haunted by dreams he never chased, a life unlived. Amid the droning despair of coworkers reduced to shadows, each clinging to their rituals of donuts, weather reports, and futile team-building, a spark of chaos ignites, threatening to unravel the fragile order.

These "psi-fi" stories explore the strange, horrific, beautiful, and often ridiculous nature of consciousness — how it can warp and twist in ways that seem unimaginable when it isn't warping or twisting. The collection asks us to question the nature of "the human condition" by viewing it through strange lenses, in the hopes of uncovering whatever insights our "normal" lenses are unable to capture.

Charlie has spent years inside a prison that swears it is a theater. One moment he is shackled in a concrete cell; the next, spotlights flare and a director's voice orders him to dance. That director, Robert Cooper, is also the father who never met Charlie's eyes when he was a child, and whose approval still glints just out of reach. Onstage beside Charlie stands Drew Fontaine, a flawless double who shares his face, his age, even his laugh—yet Drew glides through every routine while Charlie stumbles in the shadows.

A portrait of the poet as an office worker, plumbing the depths of the spiritual gulf between art and work. It’s the summer of 2017 and D__, a poet working by day as a copywriter at a retail start-up, can’t dispel a creeping sense of dissolution on the horizon. Whether it be the company’s...

The book takes place during a transitional period in man’s history: white collar professionals, specifically lawyers, are being replaced by robots, and the legal system is being taken over by a secret group known as The Machine Commission in Support of Artificial Intelligence. Presented as a collection of Judge Daylek’s recent decisions on sexual harassment, wrongful death, pollution, human rights, and intellectual property law, the hyperbolic fact patterns and the Judge’s unorthodox style parody mankind’s self-deluding grandiosity and foretell the future we are creating.

The world might be in disarray, but for one young woman, the very weave of herself seems to have loosened. Time and memories pass straight through her body, she’s afraid of her own floorboards, and ‘WHAT IS LOVE? BABY DON’T HURT ME’ plays over and over in her ears. ‘I’m sorry not to respond to your email,’ she writes, ‘but I live completely in the present now.’ But tearing through the slippery terrains of fiction and reality, the possibility for human connection seems to beckon from the other side – and with it, the chance for a blinding re-emergence into the world.

L'Empire du bien n'est pas un essai, c'est une charge, une provocation, un éclat de rire grinçant lancé contre le conformisme du monde moderne. Philippe Muray y démonte avec une ironie cinglante les travers d'une époque où le divertissement se confond avec la morale, où la critique est suspecte, où l'enthousiasme obligatoire dicte les règles. Dans la langue au panache aussi superbe qu'excessif d'un moraliste sous nicotine, Muray s'attaque à une société qui transforme tout en fête forcée et où la liberté de penser s'efface derrière le masque du bonheur collectif.

Humor is healthy. Author & narrator Alfonso F.R. provides a vital tool for snapping millions out of hip-hop hypnosis, this audiobook. You’ve heard a disgusting hip-hop song today, haven’t you? The most pervasive poison in society is difficult to avoid. This “music" isn’t to empower, educate, or motivate you. It’s to hypnotize you into becoming a hedonistic derelict. Do you think it’s natural to listen to percussion instruments with a guy talking about drugs, violence, and depravity? The tribalistic war drums tap into your instincts to condition you into a life of idiocy. It isn’t music.

Amane is ten years old when she discovers she's not like everyone else. Her school friends were all conceived the normal way, by artificial insemination, and raised in the normal way, by parents in 'clean', sexless marriages. But Amane's parents committed the ultimate taboo: they fell in love, had sex and procreated. As Amane grows up and enters adulthood, she does her best to fit in and live her life like the rest of society: cultivating intense relationships with anime characters, and limiting herself to extra-marital sex, as is the norm.

With wit sharper than the Queen's axe and characters as bizarre as your strangest dreams, this is the ultimate escape for the logically exhausted and the wonderfully curious. Step through the looking... no, wait—that's another story. Just follow the White Rabbit.
