„They burned the bread
before we touched it
Names were buried before
we memorized them
Dreams were painted in ash
& smoke
We are echoes wrapped in silence
Tell me... Will you taste your
freedom? (…)“

Remnants of the South Shore raid and interviews with residents who lived through it reveal some hints, including a mysterious map of the building found in the complex and make-shift door stickers that took inventory of occupants in some units. trib.al/MSrUVTL

Neighbor shielded 7-year-old during South Shore federal raid: ‘I didn’t want them to take her’

During the Sept. 30 raid one tenant protected a terrified girl and her mom. Remnants at the complex, including a detailed map of all the units, offer clues to what authorities may have known before that night.

Dead Operators All the Way Down by Everett Alistair

Something’s in the stalactites, Operator 46 thinks. He shines his light over the needle-sharp protrusions covering the ceiling but there’s nothing, only shadow.

Six years ago, I wrote most of the Tragedian dialogue for Pathologic 2 in iambic pentameter. I'm back now doing the same for Pathologic 3. I figured it was helpful to write a guide on *how* I did it – in case I get hit by a bus and the team has to carry on without me.
