Dystopian science fiction writer Nicholas Stillman gives you the darkest psychology of the future:

"Five Years for Heartache"

In a perverted city nuked to rubble, the most pedantic man in the world could run out of breathable air rescuing a dream girl who loathes him.

"Grim-Faced Men"

In a future indoor Earth, four men with extraordinary talents must deliver insects more valuable than themselves.

"Only I See the Dots"

Exiled for rudeness, a rocket pilot must resculpt his manners to find companionship before he starves on the war-blasted barrens.

"Eraser of Earth"

In a society of broken-down emotionless men, an escapist gardener befriends a sentient Earth-destroying time bomb.

"Tougher than Us"

On a newly terraformed Earth, a poor couple must toughen each other to survive the mind-crushing boredom that worsens each second.
