"you could watch the trees growing in real time, budding branches and unfurling leaves. Even in the vids and holos they show us in school, the trees look so sturdy, so real—so permanent—that you could forgive someone for believing that they’d grow forever." @jenniferhudak.bsky.social @escapepod.org

This is a lovely, creepy little story. I'd compare it to the "Cosmic Bliss" subgenre. Just a cozy story of a [someone] and their not-a-dog.

New SFF story by @madpelletier.bsky.social “It’s rare for someone to be born with a genuine gift. I certainly wasn’t. Only thing I ever saw in a crystal ball was my own reflection, not that it stopped me taking the coins off the hopeful and the hopeless.” www.unchartedmag.com/stories/come...
