  1. 1. Colin Gets Promoted And Dooms The World

    A darkly comic satire that follows Colin, an unremarkable office worker whose unexpected promotion places him in a position where a series of thoughtless decisions, sloppy delegations, and naive attempts to please superiors set off a chain of bureaucratic, technological, and political failures; as mistakes compound and institutions respond with denial and spin, the story tracks how personal ambition, systemic incompetence, and public spectacle combine to produce escalating catastrophe, skewering corporate culture, the cult of leadership, and the precariousness of modern systems.
