And finally, Anara: "Responsible for the greatest administrative failure in recorded history of the multiverse."

The concept: What happens when the prophesied "Chosen One" is found 30+ years too late, and the world he was supposed to save is already destroyed.

... The silver belly bracelet, a band of intricate filigree resting just above her pubic bone, completed the constellation of metal on her body. With every step, the chains swayed, a faint, metallic chime lost in the market noise, but to Lyra, it was a rhythm as loud as her own heartbeat.

Each chain was a whisper against her skin: one to each nipple, one to the silver hoop in her navel, and the last, the most maddening, a slender thread of silver that ran down the flat plane of her belly, through the soft thatch of silver-blonde curls, to connect to the ring piercing ...

... everywhere at once, intimate and undeniable. Her nipples, pierced with delicate silver rings, tightened not from the breeze but from the constant, gentle tug of the fine chains that descended from the central ring of her collar.

That warmth was not merely the sun. It was the memory of other warmth, of hands and breath and the press of bodies, a persistent hum in her blood that had not subsided for forty-eight hours. The light fell across her bare shoulders, her stomach, the tops of her thighs, and she felt it like ...

Today she had passed the herb seller's stall at the corner, noted that the old woman behind it had better things to do than stare, and realized she had simply been walking, not counting steps or rehearsing expressions of composure, just walking, the afternoon light warm on her skin.

She was improving. Yesterday she had made it perhaps a third of the way down Wicker Lane before the heat in her face became visible enough for Ellie to comment on it.

Quotes from the a WIP: Lyra was becoming fluent in a new discipline, and it was nothing she had ever trained for. The discipline was this: how to walk through a public market wearing a silver collar and very little else, and to do so without either fleeing or dying of embarrassment.

May Day is more than a holiday. It’s a reminder that working people have won before by acting together. @milesklassin.bsky.social reports, the fight against billionaire rule depends on renewing that solidarity now.

May Day and the Potency of Solidarity Against Division

International Workers' Day, aka May Day, represents a fight for a different vision of society—one where we, not a billionaire minority, can make the decisions that impact our lives.

WIP, rough draft snippet: "Bryan watched as the boar came out of the underbrush. His dueling sword, was the wrong weapon for this situation but the animal was too close to use his crossbow effectively. Fortunately, the boar did not immediately charge. Bryan took a deep breath and tried to focus."

4/?: At least as a yeoman he was free to leave the manor unlike the serfs who were considered to be part of the lord's property.

Liam P Boyle (Down and Out in Dystopia) @liampboyle.bsky.social · 06/07/2025

3/?: He hadn’t even been able to grab his cloak before he needed to run. There was a definite chance of having his yeoman status revoked and then being forced to work the lord's fields in chains along with the other serfs.

Liam P Boyle (Down and Out in Dystopia) @liampboyle.bsky.social · 06/07/2025

2/?: He had just enough time to throw his crafter's book, healer’s kit, and supposed spell book into his backpack with a bit of travel gear after Conal the miller's boy had warned him the men-at-arms were coming. Other than that Lee just had his clothes and eating knife.

Liam P Boyle (Down and Out in Dystopia) @liampboyle.bsky.social · 06/07/2025

1/?: He looked into his empty purse before reattaching it to his belt. The lord's men had already come to remove him from the tenancy for failure to pay the rents and taxes owed. Not like he had anything to pay them with since his position as a scribe had been given to the lord's younger cousin.

"Rights" exist in equal measure to your own socio-economic power. The homeless are sent to labor camps until they can prove they are no longer homeless. Debtors' prison was brought back. Civil rights exist only at the whim of the state.

The "humanoid" species: Humans, Elves, Dwarves, Halflings, and Gnomes at least supposedly have legalized rights. The Elves' former slave species: Orcs, Hobgoblins, Goblins, and Duende have more questionable legal standing.

The population of the Earth was reduced to less than 3 billion, and no longer was all of that population human. Elves turned out to be just as greedy, ruthless, and sociopathic as humans had been. And their three century-long lives let them accumulate more power and wealth.

"Down And Out In Dystopia" isn't a story I'm writing -- it's a setting. After roughly a millennia of being gone from the world, magic and magical creatures have returned. But that heralded over a century of wars, pandemics, and mass death.

We are called to do our creative work, and it is a call we cannot ignore. But then there is survival. When we can get those two callings to meet it is glorious but when we cannot.... Well, something always has to give.

Yes, I do have a new day job but it doesn't start until the end of June. I'm just trying to get by until then. (Yes, if there's a local help agency I've already applied, that's all I've been 🤬ing doing for the last month.)
