A dating app for people who are destined to die on the same day, the crew of a generation starship whose solutions to crises lead to even greater crises, a planet of the dead who won't remain still, a man who captures the emotions of people at their lowest points to sell to his subscribers, a timeline polluted by delivery drivers, a savior who may never reach those he's meant to save, Lovecraftian creatures going out for ice cream, all of these and more await you within. Relax now. Nothing will be asked of you. Bleeding is Easy if You Know How to Open Up.
