Universel Riche is a card-based RPG about shitty people in a bastard world. Use the magic of economics, sex, lineage, and trucks to become the top bastard. Or try to find love, I guess.

Here's yet another plea to read dense, deeply immersive literature and actual books. I try to argue why. You've been reading a lot of articles like this online over the past 12 years, haven't ya? I am not original here, at all. Tell me about your own difficult reads!

ecological, ceremonial, religious and political: weighty ethical systems collide and grind together in @aksijaha.bsky.social's encounter between a powerful, ancient and stable civilization and a newly sapient crowlike species emerging from a short prehistory in andataexpress.neocities.org/river-12
Palace, pillars. Star-traffic. Gears. Songs. Shows heard from the basil. Pillars, high pillars, strung with vines. Golden gates, eyelets, perhaps wide enough for an arm... 

And heat. Immense, suppurating heat. It was a furnace, it was impossible. I let my hands go, I stopped trying to spatially place myself, and only prayed, hoping that the magnetism would be enough. But I wanted Kali, not God. I wanted, wanted, wanted, wanted, like a child, like a dog, certain of nothing but want. Magnetism - my ribs were being magnetized from my body, away from the Heart, away from where my beloved had gone, and where my skill was too poor to go myself.

https://andataexpress.neocities.org/river-12What could she possibly expect here? She, so smug and so cruel, was she now here to convince me that she had been my gateway? That she had laid the road for me here, rather than dancing in fear?

And now she itched to talk. Simple creature. Power-sickened and unbearable. I tried to steady myself, to think of her knowledge, her expertise - but how could I respect in in a true way when she was trying to hock it at me!

"Do you think anything new? Being here, and seeing life in an unwritten course, overflowing. What," I asked, to jar her, "is a nymph to you now?Razina. "We are inside a new type of machine. A generator of life built, built to the designs of a new theory. There's power, an unroyal power, wherever that ends up. Hunting. Striving. Beginning. Parallels. I can tell, Sain- shand, that you're using different epithets - I know that
barely having met you. How many times have we spoken? Our main contact. And now you have subjects, advisors, goals..."

The basil was flowering again. In the pale daylight a luminous cloud of pollen drifted over the span of the field, gnats dancing within it, dust in dust. Its stalks of flowers and heavy seeds, like cargo splines in meaty,
inky purple. Rattling with fecundity, buzzing like pylons. Hamsters, fat and lanky and wild, shuddering through the undergrowth. Far away, the cypress.

https://andataexpress.neocities.org/river-12I held the body until it was sick and Minak de- manded I yield. As soon as it was out of my hands I was following it, dying. After e died, back to the city, it was a step, a second from the river there, fresh with blood of our kill, full and happy and so close to death, and then it was the river here, the river I had slept in, and the entire city massed around me.

Every soul watched from the banks. Every heart of the city but those that couldn't bear it. I looked to the trees, and began counting.

Harka gave me the knife. Minak, into the water, for the punishing task of collecting loose bones. 

Eir body was sick. Eir blood was black. I cut open eir proud ribs, to the keel; the blade slipped and caught a fingertip to the nail - a surge of anger filled me at that, that living blood should touch dead, the sheer disrespect - but it was gone, and I continued. I lowered the cavity into the water, the running water, from the dam, like eir body was a bowl. The water ran black. Little toy-organs.

the many-named ghost @noeticflux.bsky.social has extended the cybermodernist maximalism associated with sites like surfaces.cx into its vastest narrative architectures to date in Scarred Zeruel, a journey through the theopolitics of a hallucinatory multiverse andataexpress.neocities.org/zeruel-12
Lesia isn't within their grasp by the time it arrives, clutching at dead air, limbs flailing in crescents as if in mock embrace, as if miming romance or the kind of sweaty stuff that came up when the choker would OD her, so that she'd have to apply for fresh temperance licensing or else be isolated so hard it would be hard to call her a professional at much but lying around daydreaming. She's at their six, cut between them, and the surprised third Feral is offstep, runs right into a chromeplated knee slamming into him with the severity of a Shin Five Zero standard checkin; he lifts off like a rocket, crumples into where the doorhatch, blasted open, juts at a sharp angle. Spine first and Chére sees the body twist and fall.

https://andataexpress.neocities.org/zeruel-12As if on cue the kunoichi's eyes drop, and she quietens up; a languorous yet lazy wave of her hand ges- tures that she has something else to do, spiral elliptic in the weak light of Shin HQ. The chünin watching this go down realizes that this is above his pay grade-must've, for he's silent too, baring only with an arch of his eyebrow that he's waiting for the pair to leave. As Lesia's question catches up to him he shrugs.

"It's about time. As a R3plikoid you wouldn't understand. You don't know you can be off until you're off. To be human is to know you can and will be off. Not on. Not present in yourself." He rolls his shoulders again. "When the daylight goes this place isn't safe. It's loaded to the brim with black ice. We've rigged it with the most demonic stuff you can think of. What we call terror? We monopolize it. We own it. We are the night."

https://andataexpress.neocities.org/zeruel-12"Your weapons are nonoperational here, right,"
she says to make conversation.

"In my world we call them armata. It's true. There's a dry socket, a hollow where I should feel the use
function."

Chére nods. "That makes sense. Shin told us there's no white ice here." Staring out over the abyssal which is walled in to keep out the Nukeworld Frontiers- the walls had been black and covered with etchings and sigils, as if the night sky had fallen around them. We are locked in, she thinks, with the mooncredits, and all the hauntings that come with that. Not so much locked in as a reverse gravitational attraction; the walls only do so much. We draw the moon credits towards us like flies to rancid meat. That's why the mallform is growing so fast.

https://andataexpress.neocities.org/zeruel-12What she says next is a whisper that Chére has to strain to hear through the hologram field. "There are grids beyond the Grid. You know that, right?" She gestures to Lesia. "I'm not talking about your precious parallax. What I mean is that there are worlds other than this. We follow similar patterns but all remain distinct." She turns her back on Chére. "Never would've figured you for a Parallax chaser. Take it up with the Ferals. You'd get along." 

"I can't," Chére says, "because my Parallax friend imploded one with a reverse gravity well."

A long silence stretches then. Ivory crosses her arms. "I'm only here because I was selling to you. If you hadn't asked they never would've known. They didn't book you because you fit into their plans just roaming around undecked. How does that make you feel?" She glances over
her shoulder at the R3plikoid. "Respect, I guess."

collab between @baroquespiral.bsky.social, Escher McDonell and caraparcel brings literary First Contact milsf at its most dense and political: a leftist trans woman meets an alien who wants to help her reshape the Earth in exchange for our aid in a galactic war andataexpress.neocities.org/planet-12
"The unit commander there is one of Hadak's trusted fighters - not just someone who jumped on his bandwagon out here like the Irons Unit. Hadak even gave him a new name - Zsâkos Gâdor." Both obscure references to the cross-cultural folkloric figure of the "sack man" - known in Haiti as "Tonton Macoute". "His real name is Tyson Valladares, a Miami Cuban delinquent who went into Academi straight out of high school." Baugh had filled me in on this guy - he had been keeping tabs on him back on Earth, stuff that didn't get into his recruitment file, some of it even new to Edison Lens. "His main deployment was in Haiti, where he had an off-record... hobby of seeking out memorabilia, anecdotes, and anyone who could claim a connection to the Duvalier-era secret police." The noto- rious "Tonton Macoutes", who sold the blood of their pris- oners on the black market and used vodoun rituals to in- timidate their enemies. "He had a complete uniform, with a straw hat and mask, in his bunk, and a vintage machete he'd even take on missions."

https://andataexpress.neocities.org/planet-12It's not unheard of to blow things up, to alter the envi ronment intentionally. It's done to make Internexes, agricultural basins, chemical and ecological reservoirs, stableways... Or simply to control a collapse that's anticipated to happen anyway: What the Ribbons were doing was unprecedented because it was random, because they were aliens, who didn't know the terrain. Well that made everything exponentially worse for us, didn't it. (Also meant it would be harder to rally propa- ganda against the attacks on the mesa, although if we could prove somehow that it was a purely defensive strike...) There's a process, normally, of consultation with everyone in range to be physically affected... which was easier with the Network, of course. The Entangleweed positioned themselves as experts, they had connected all the local communities so they could do something like this again... I suspect they had some actual plan to use the remains of the mesa, it couldn't have been a lie or they would have lost credibility with everybody; they talked about building an underground plateau. Of course, now that this place is a threat to its environment, it's open season.

https://andataexpress.neocities.org/planet-12Malin had heard Sieh speak like this. Even when they captured the subject they spent days depriving them of water, reducing them to a state of desperation, of wanting life, whatever that meant. Even then she always wondered despite the coolness of Sieh's operations, had there been a point where he too might have been consumed in a different world that was unlike life as a civilian, or those routines that people supposedly did. Routines she could never adjust herself to, much to the chagrin of family so that when she worked para-military, even after the agitations or raids or operations, she would sit in her Toyota Liteace van alone until night, almost forgetting to eat so that when she came outside of it, there was a freshness to the bustles of marketplaces she walked in, but she knew it wouldn't last. When she met Sieh then, there was a guardedness in the way he looked at crowds disguised in leisure, how they glimmered almost taking a silhouette before blinking away, seeming that even in this sort of peaceful scene, they had the same shape as an enemy combatant. In another coun try elsewhere, there was a coup d'etat happening and that increased or lowered prices around it. Some of the people profited while others didn't. A kind of necessity around it.

https://andataexpress.neocities.org/planet-12"It was precisely because of him, I chose that course of action. Killing him after was something I considered but thankfully the medics stitched him back up. The only thing he'll know is that we can pull him apart anytime we want to, he'll think twice before even moving a finger. I
somewhat doubt he can even be an effective combat asset
given that."

"Your respect for life is as frightening as the way you can use a weapon... You make it look so easy..." Malin said.

"Life is not something that can be severed from us. It is what we are. Even this Mob here, debilitated but living just the same. It is almost inherent..." Sieh stated.

a legend of deranged e-lit since 2020's Neko Girl Magazine, nekosattva did the Slavic existential edgelord novel better than any of the Dimes Square girlies publishers fawn over and it's all sitting here for free. read it in full before anyone else with andataexpress.neocities.org/phosphor-11
THE TWENTIETH THOUGHT OF KALI HICHI:

« And who are the 'druzhina?' They are fed by the world, rejected by the world. They are told to be independent, punished for their independence. Entangled in the world, thrown away by the world. A thousand damnations. A constant embrace, a never-ending shrug.

And who is 'Kali Hichi?' A name that floats along to save one from drowning in the sea of namelessness. Just as the city is a name for countless different spaces, 'Kali Hichi' is the name that endures. The name is what can be grasped, what can be known of the city, of the 'monzhj.'

https://andataexpress.neocities.org/phosphor-11There you are! My little Lanka, sleeping soundly on the bed. Cozy underneath covers adorned with felt roses. Next to the bed you'll find my bookcase. I'd kept everything there because I believed it would somehow get into my brain while I was sleeping. And at the window sat my little bureau, partly wood, partly plastic. I'd carved a few things into it, including the names of girls I'd hated. Look out the window; you can see the kids walking to school, in clothes far too big for them. Across from the bookcase was my dresser; I'd always resisted wanting beautiful things in public, in private I relished them. For the sake of my popularity at school, I had to pretend that mom's beautiful woolen frocks woven with red and gold- en threads were antiquated and ugly. I'm sure that hurt her. I'm sorry about that.

https://andataexpress.neocities.org/phosphor-11"What do you like?" the bush warbler asks as it sits on the gate behind me. I like the way deer and rabbit run through the forest, free. I like the way the wild strawberries make your mouth pucker all up in the winter. And I love how you might lift a piece of wood and a thousand little bugs run for their lives; lives which are short and sparse in luxury, but worth living nevertheless.

"And what else?" a mustard-y kinglet demands as he sits on my shoulder. And I love the first snowflakes of winter that bring on Gaia's well-deserved rest.Strange. It's like you've been here the whole
time. You smile as I set the book down on the desk.

"Why do you like that one, sis?" she asks.

I'm not sure. Maybe it's good sometimes to know that someone else is thinking about the same things you are; you feel more at home in the world. Isn't that ironic?

"What does ironic mean?" she asks.

I laugh. I wouldn't even know how to describe it. In time, you just sorta know it when you see it.

"Strange," she answers.

*trailer voice* IN A WORLD... where belief is literally reality, and power fantasies power... heard this before? Kowloon's Curse writer @doremichazakiel.bsky.social imbues YA tropes with Gnostic ideas, cosmic horror, and social realism – and that's just part 1 andataexpress.neocities.org/moonlight-5
"Remind me to google what that means later. Murugan, do you know about dolls? The people that turn into literal puppets?"

No mistress.

"You're a useless sword, Murugan." That is not true, mistress. In the hands of a proper daughter of Tsukuyomi I am without peer as a weapon. If you wish to know things, you should use your 'google' artefact- the glass rectangle, yes? to look them up. 

I snicker. "You're right. I'll use my cellphone to look things up and you for battle. Now, let's go and wait for doctor West."

https://andataexpress.neocities.org/moonlight-5The lumbering man takes a deep breath, as if to calm building rage. 

"Don't make me out for a shallow nerd. Pop culture is the religion of the modern era. It in-1 forms our entire society, and if you stumble through life blind, without even absorbing the basics of the culture that shapes our entire world, do you then deserve to vote? To consume resources that real people need?" 

"Jesus, you really believe that, don't you?" Nozomi asks.

"What the fuck?" Nehelennia says.

"What court are you," I try probing her.

"Wouldn't you like to know, shadow-witch?" 

"Can everyone stop talking and go back to killing each other?" Jeremy suggests.

https://andataexpress.neocities.org/moonlight-5"They are ants, Murugan says. A chill goes down my spine, because I believe him. There are plenty of shadows on the university grounds, and I effortlessly shadow-step behind the police lines and drive my sword into the back of the man with the megaphone. Energy flows into me, and I split into two. In the confusion, it takes the police several seconds to open fire, and when they do there are two of me, running through their own ranks. All they hit is each other as several people start screaming hold your fire,' and half the cops and soldiers attempt to flee. The other Marieken and I weave through the crowd with staccato movement, staggered teleports mixed with running. Underneath the first helicopter we rejoin, and as it opens fire on us we merge with its shad- ow. I abandon my physical shape, store Murugan in my shadow, and turn into a mass of tentacles, mouths and eyes. I wrap around the helicopter, which immediately malfunctions as I crush it and devour it. Matter is matter, I realize. I can break down all matter. It doesn't have to be flesh. There is flesh mixed in with the steel though, and for a moment I am confused before I remember helicop- ters have crew. I laugh maniacally, as I turn back into a girl and swing Murugan around blindly, wounding several cops and killing at least two. My stores of energy replen-
ish at staggering speed, and I get high on killing again."

https://andataexpress.neocities.org/moonlight-5It is music. It is light. It's angelic, and it is horrific. A million years of the laughter of children, of artist- ry and sunrises and a billion quiet moments of religious awe. It is all these things, and yet this is only the sur- face. It burns, and it screams. The deeper, the stranger it gets. Who could ever imagine what magnetic fields dream about? Who could attempt to fathom that the processes of stellar formation and the math underlying evolution have thoughts to begin with, let alone contemplate what they hope for?

It is cruel, some thing that was once me realizes. There is no 'I' here, but there is still something that is, even in the absence of everything that once made this "thing' into Marieken Mithras. It is cruel, this light. A deep evil pervades it. A feeling of hate. All the light in the universe, everything good and everything beautiful, and it too can feel. It can dream. All it feels is hate, and all it dreams is nightmares.

the rupture of Hrae, digital painting
digital painting with a black canvas, orange oil paints on the background. a smattering of crimson lays like a line of tank treads on the bottom, on top of it: burgundy acrylics smeared over the first half, and yellow oil streaks on the left border. on the right side, cherry red streaks that look like the contours of a cliffside. at the top right side, the sky is invaded by belts of plague-yellow, cyan, and greens, like the eye of Gunfighter/Seraphaxxia, shaping like an axe at their end. a distorted barbed wire of cherry clamps around the left corner. above all of that is Hrae, the pitch circus disc, cutting a thin crescent over the middle and forming into zigzag shapes near to his terminus, then fading into a small hook.

a poem called "euridyce, you stupid bitch, can it wait"
euridyce, you stupid bitch, can it wait


Every now and then, I hear them
on the places that killed them. Less
directly than I used to; maybe some
of that is spite, but some of it is
time. The earth devours us all
and some it does slower. I'll see
something beautiful and think,
god, she'd have hated this. Or
loved it. I want her to see it,
at least get the chance to press
the button from common courtesy.
Who would notice if they let her –
who would know in a million years
if one of their sympathy likes was from
a woman who stopped living years ago?
Aren't most of them? Do you hear them
when they go, the ones you loved?
"Who is she" from a hallway stumble
barred from room to room in parties
turned to shiva on a standing room plan
and hear them, find the words to say,
turn and see a world they never knew?
How much of the day by day, the track
we make from foot to foot all forward
in the muck we make of things --
