Lighthouse 29 - The Thrutopia Issue How do we imagine the future? How do we get from where we are now to a possible, sustainable future? And how do stories help us get there?

I don’t think I posted this here, but my story Radio Wives was published in Lighthouse Journal this summer! The magazine is always a lovely collection of prose and poetry, though I may be biased

Python was awarded a funding grant, funding grant asked Python foundation to remove all diversity and inclusion initiatives they have.

Python foundation said no and rejected the grant.

The same black and white cat with a white lower face and breast, now looking up, still looking smug. One white paw is also visible in the frame.

A long overdue update on Pard: After Charles passed away in January, we had to situate Pard, thankfully to a familiar home and with personal assistants he loves and who tend to his every need, a place he stayed many times before. As the images suggest, he is both Fine and Doing Fine.

Made it through exams. Made it through the year. Every day keeps coming and we get caught in the wave. Today I’ve got my feet under me
