As a public librarian and a Hurricane Katrina survivor, I’ve seen a lifetime of the results of deep structural inequity—up close and personal. I write political speculative fiction to imagine better futures, confront hard realities, and remind myself (and anyone listening) that real change is possible. Imagining better futures—political speculation, real-world stakes.

The TikTok Eschaton

Last week we all had a good gawk at the phenomenon of #RaptureTok, where the End of Days went briefly viral on social media, and people worldwide prepared themselves for the Second Coming.  People went hard on this prophecy – selling their cars, giving away their savings.  Of course, the Rapture did not arrive and the disappointed believers had a variety of reactions on that same social media.  It

R. Buckminster Fuller
“We should do away with the absolutely specious notion that everybody has to earn a living. It is a fact today that one in ten thousand of us can make a technological breakthrough capable of supporting all the rest. The youth of today are absolutely right in recognizing this nonsense of earning a living. We keep inventing jobs because of this false idea that everybody has to be employed at some kind of drudgery because, according to Malthusian Darwinian theory he must justify his right to exist. So we have inspectors of inspectors and people making instruments for inspectors to inspect inspectors. The true business of people should be to go back to school and think about whatever it was they were thinking about before somebody came along and told them they had to earn a living.”
Buckminster Fuller

“Creativity is an act of drinking water from the infinite, a way of communicating with the divine.”
Jose Ruiz, The Medicine Bag: Shamanic Rituals & Ceremonies for Personal Transformation

“I believe in [the] God who reveals Himself in the orderly harmony of what exists.”
