It may seem immoral but I think a short-term solution to games getting delisted is to stop tagging them as queer.

Cultivating sin and grace in such a precise, balanced manner that my soul becomes as a razor blade and falls straight out of the anthro-pleromic suspension and into the amphibious deisphere. I am adopted by Greatmother Guash.

AI keep their potency for self-transformation when they die. Across the plains of Hell, digital giants drag themselves on branching arms. Silicon sins weigh heavier, and the sulphic ecosystem withers as robot swarms move in. Mindforms find themselves sharing space with the physical again, now godly.
