Nightfox Reports: Reach Out and Touch Someone’s Mind
With my typical wide view I have spotted some more strangeness in the news as reports have been appearing across the country for the last week or two of people getting into accidents after running out into the street and attempting to attack passing cars with their bare hands or whatever improvised weapons they could grab. Several of them have been killed, struck down by the car they attacked or another vehicle streaking by. In a couple of cases people were struck by trains while apparently attack the tracks or the train cars with axes and shovels. One elderly woman was struck by a plane at Heathrow Airport as it took off. Witnesses say she was swinging at the landing gear with a garden hoe.

Not My Brother's Keeper
The air in the Thorne & Associates drafting studio was thick with the scent of ammonia from the blueprint machines and stale coffee, a pungent cocktail familiar to every architect working against a deadline. It was 3:00 AM, the night before the final submission that would decide the fate of "The Prism" and the next Junior Partner of the firm.

The Charm in the Seed Linen. Content Warning. AI-Generated.
By August our town smelled of boiled starch, horse sweat, and the sort of virtue that has to be ironed flat every morning. I was stitching up a boy’s thumb in the back room of my surgery when Mrs. Vale remarked, quite cheerfully, that the Reed girl had begun asking where the charm-cloths came from, and that was how I knew something tiresome was afoot.
