Well, now that you've brought it up, if/when you find it, come back and tell us. Me at least, 'cause I'll be picking at it all day.

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020
I was about to say "serial". That's the only other "s" synonym for chronologically I can find. The other being sequential.

Because books.
"two people in a dark room"
In the dark there’s nothing but the green lights of the machinery, the vague rustle of the doctor’s coat, until a light comes on over the chart on the wall.
“Can you read the bottom line?”
He can, a string of meaningless letters, just like always. He rattles them off, uninterested.
“Your vision’s still perfect,” the doctor says, stool’s wheels whining across the floor. “Good news for a man your age.”
It’s not a surprise. He fingers the unexpected pink slip in his coat pocket as he leaves, bill in his other hand. Even so, he didn’t see that coming.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
