The text of a short story goes thus:  Taking All of Her  So then I chopped off her other foot.  Then, when she could no longer stand, clinging to me, leaning on me and unable to leave me now for sure, I no longer wanted her.  So I went back to the huge furnace in the industrial plant, and I asked it, What can I do with her now, when she is no longer beautiful, when I no longer enjoy watching her even?  The furnace said to bring her there and throw her in.  Her bones would melt and become part of skyscrapers being built, trucks used to build them and no one would ever blame me.  Beneath the text is an ASCII illustration of the remnants of her metallic torso being top-fed into a crucible, out of whose lower portion molten metal pours out and forms new, useful shapes.

Mistigram: this dystopian piece of postcard fiction (describing what is to be done when the novelty of playing with the AI RealDoll wears thin -- unless it is an allegory of course!) and its attached #ASCIIart illustration of a crucible are the handiwork of ldb. They were included in the new science fiction-themed MIST0525 artpack collection.

In rhyming Dr. Seuss couplets, a young man extols the delicious and economical virtues of Kraft Dinner.

Mistigram: the Barenaked Ladies weren't the only ones to sing the praises of that uniquely Canadian culinary phenomenon, the prepackaged preparation of Kraft Macaroni and Cheese they presumed to brand #KraftDinner. This poem honouring the neon orange dish was written way back in the '90s by The Judge about his student days at BCIT, when he basically lived on the stuff, and was included in the new food-themed IMBIBE01 electronic magazine -- basically a time capsule of how the chronically online were eating 30 years ago.
