Citizen Sleeper and the Logic of Late-Stage Capitalism (Spoilers for the game included) I Wake Up, Again My body hums with decay, circuits cold under synthetic skin. I feel the weight of this day before I even open my eyes, knowing the dice I roll will decide whether I eat, whether I can buy another dose of stabilizer, whether I can keep going. I am a Sleeper, a borrowed consciousness in a rented body, owned by a corporation that sees me as a resource to reclaim.

My latest article is live on Play Meaningfully!

I write from within the experience of Citizen Sleeper, using its dice rolls, decay mechanics, and story paths to explore the broken realities of late capitalism and the hope we can build in the ruins.
