Lily, the Immortal — Kylie Lee Baker
A rather good, thought provoking story concerning internet celebrities and what may happen to them after they die.
Imagine if some big corporation somehow obtained the rights to the social media channel, used all those hundreds of hours of footage to produce a deep fake, and then continued to use that celebrity for their own marketing purposes in whatever way they chose. And what about the loved ones left behind?
Best of all, you can read it for free over at Uncanny Magazine. There’s a podcast version but it doesn’t really work as the lesbian narrator of the story is being read by a man. It’s like getting a white cis-gender heterosexual to play a black transgender lesbian in a film.
