Dustdaughter at Uncanny Magazine is lovely and intensely communal and--hopeful.
Deriving Life at Tor.com made me fucking sob my eyes out, be cautious with it if you have issues with self-hatred or suicidal ideation. A little too close to home, gave me a headache from crying.
Some Breakable Things by Cassandra Khaw warnings for suicide again, and parental abuse, and also this one doesn't really have a satisfactory conclusion ime.
Do Not Look Back, My Lion at Beneath Ceaseless Skies made me cry. The pitiless machine of war, and the helplessness of those within it.
Okay, Glory at Lightspeed Magazine I regret reading at 3am, I spent like half an hour unable to stop thinking about it while trying to sleep afterward. Brutal isolation and the psychological horror thereof after the narrator's AI smarthouse is hacked and turned against him.
Thirty-Three Percent Joe at Clarkesworld (via
isis) is a scifi military thing narrated mostly by the autonomous AIs powering a not-very-good soldier's replacement body parts.
