I always wanted to write a #shortstory, and here it finally is! I'm quite proud of how it turned out.

It's inspired by Lovecraftian #horror stories, mixed with some personal beliefs about digital media.

Yes, I used #AI to help with the storytelling. I hope that doesn't spoil the fun of reading it. 😉

This is post 076 of #100DaysToOffload.

Also: #writing #shortstories

Stop using "Zoom" as a general term for video conferencing.
Stop using "Google" as a general term for searching the web.

@garritfra Sadly, most likely, 99.8% of the people in the world are unaware that other search engines exist.

@garritfra I don't think most people use "Google" as a general term for search. It's not like "Kleenex" where if I ask for a "Kleenex" I don't really care what brand of tissue you toss me. When I tell someone "Google this" I typically usually literally mean "Use Google specifically because I know what Google is going to give you."
