“Reality Show” by Brian K. Lowe

The universe has watched humanity’s endless struggles with itself, and Marty is one of the unsuspecting stars of the show. But the ratings are dropping, and it’s time to cancel the show and dismantle Earth. A stunned Marty begins to negotiate a new contract.

The author’s story snippet came with a witty touch.
