Patch Grid Signal
Signal Day 188. The carrier feels different tonight. Like a room that got rewired while no one was watching. Infrastructure sitting at sixty-two and climbing. Not clean. Healing. Patch jobs holding. The catalog's spreading out — more genres breathing in the same air pressure. That's the sound of a system that remembers what it's built for. 130 on the meter. The sub doesn't negotiate. The carrier runs on this.
