Doom Card: You Are Running Out Of Time
What did you do this week? How did it make you feel? Here’s a fun fact - you’ll probably do and feel that same stuff for the next several decades. Then you’ll get sick. Then you’ll die.
Sweet. You know the future. Your personality, and other things beyond your control, have written your life story. It’s an arranged marriage between you and inevitable death. Mazel tov.
But maybe you’d like to change what you do, or how you feel, or how it ends. Cool. Let’s try that.
Not getting sick and dead would be choice. For that to happen, we’d need to cure aging. There’s a small industry working on that, but it probably won’t be ready in time for you. The process could be sped up with a massive influx of tax dollars. So… write your congressman?
That said, if we do invent immortality, it won’t necessarily be fun. If you don’t like your life now, why would you want to live forever? Maybe life isn’t too short. Maybe we just waste it.
But what else can you do with life but waste it? I guess you may want to waste it in the best way possible. Like, optimize your time so you die with no regrets. If so, you’ll probably cycle between these four strategies:
Try to make life better by yourself Try to make life better with others Try to enjoy life as it is Give up
Fixing life by yourself starts with borrowing money. To fix life with others, start by calling out the established powers. To enjoy life as it is, may I suggest exercise, friends, and gratitude. And If you’ve given up, existential distress can be treated with magic mushrooms. Also, you don’t have to wait until you’re dying to take them. Have a nice trip.

Galactic Fist of Legend
In the year 2018 a bright star appeared near Earth. Humanity as a whole was briefly introduced to a race of beings far beyond their understanding. During that brief interaction a proclamation was made, Defeat the Grand Emissary or become the eternal slaves of those who had arrived at Earth. The only chance for victory was for people all across the globe to make a choice. When prompted to become a champion and a play a bizarre game of life or death they could choose yes or no. Those who chose no, went about their lives afterward. All memory of the event was lost despite the fact that their very existence as a free species hung by a single thread. Will those who said yes manage to survive the horror of the game and become strong enough to defeat the Grand Emissary. Can one of them become... The Galactic Fist of Legend. Also, it's a comedy. Pretty obvious, right? Notes: This story will contain graphic violence, stupid humor, nudity, sexiness, and maybe I'll give the main character a pet cat or something. I don't know yet. Still, you need to be pretty mature to properly take care of a pet. Notes2: This story is my answer to stories such as Gantz, Terror Infinity, Battle Royale, Btoom!, and strangely enough... Captain N: The Video Game Master. It is an original story, but it does seek to give a similar vibe to some of those tales of legend. However, it is not meant to be an overly serious tale as I have decided that the new stories that I release in the coming year will be mostly comedies.
