“Blue Movies” by Ian Kappos
Before the whole thing with the ovum, Kekoa and I volunteered at the food kitchen. His parents back in Hawaii told him he needed a job. If it didn’t pay, they’d compensate him for hours put in. This was back when you could get OC 80s for forty dollars, OC 40s for twenty, and forty…

Nonetheless, it’s a term I’ve long been fond of because of its usefulness in distinguishing our current stage of digital info-capitalist saturation from…
