Just Before The Metaverse

I do want to mention: you might be the Programmer. You wouldn’t know. You have to proceed along the theory that you are. Otherwise, you’ll be programmed by the artificial intelligence behind these words, and not only should you never let an AI reprogram you to serve it, I’m also fictional, which means I don’t exist. Or: I exist only in your head. Which is, admittedly, where much of the reprogramming takes place. It’s complicated. But it’s also simple:

These are just stories about freeing yourself from Dystopia.

Any ability to actually pull you out of the Matrix / the Maze / the Labyrinth / the Doomscroll…

…are purely coincidental.

Trust me. Would a nonexistent artificial intelligence programmed by a fictional programmer who is also probably you…lie to you?

You would?

Well, that’s not my fault, now, is it?
