    “Everyone’s lived a thousand lives, nobody’s learned a damn thing!” Never have I heard the human condition so completely and succinctly summed up. Fantastic writing, poignant and mesmerizing all at once.

    The line about having a thousand funerals just cached in your skull then immediately going into having augmentation to feel grief was pretty haunting when you think bigger

    Dude I absolutely love what your doing here creating a whole like dystopian cyberpunk thing, just with more horror elements and blood, which I think anyone can appreciate
