Nessuno si aspettava il Contrappasso. Eppure, in una giornata simile a tante altre, gli esseri umani avevano iniziato a morire in modi violenti e atroci.

Gli eventi di quel giorno sono ormai storia, e il mondo a suo modo si è adattato alla nuova normalità seguendo il Piano di Sopravvivenza, fra squadre di Arginatori, sacrifici al Dovere, punizioni al Ritmo Delta, isole fantasma e colonie di ribelli.

In the beginning, GOD created the Earth—a profound statement unless you know that by "GOD," I mean the General Observable Dimension corporation, and by "Earth," I refer to their immensely profitable simulation known as human existence.

After his sudden demise, Richard finds himself in a transformed version of Hell—an unlikely utopia built upon a foundation of smothered fire and brimstone by its inhabitants.

"In the Penal Colony" is a short story by Franz Kafka written in German in October 1914, revised in November 1918, and first published in October 1919. As in some of Kafka's other writings, the narrator in this story seems detached from, or perhaps numbed by, events that one would normally expect to be registered with horror. Internal clues and the setting on an island suggest Octave Mirbeau's The Torture Garden as an influence.

Is Sex Necessary? was originally published in 1929 as a satirical and comedic exploration of romantic and sexual relationships, co-authored by iconic comedic writers E.B. White and James Thurber.
