If you submitted something to us, we want to let you know that we are behind on our 90 day turn around time. Some things happened behind the scenes (turns out that when your shadow beckons you to follow a hallway that you don't remember being there, you will get VERY lost).

Red Blue Oreoes, Cherry Pringles, Flamin Hot Toothpaste Are you real? Are we real? Is this effervescent glowing screen real? drabblecast.org/2025/02/27/d… Author: Shaenon K. Garrity @shaenongarrity Artist: Bo Kaier @BoKaier Narrator: Norm Sherman
A group of people stand in a wide street. The image is wrinkly, like crumpled paper. In torn scraps of colored paper are the words "Drabblecasr #500 The Repairers of Reality" in various fonts and handwriting styles. The cetner person has blue hair and is doing a cat's cradle. The other people are also holding a chikden, knitting a red scarf, reading a book. The background is abstract and looks like a landscape, but it's half formed.
