“In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back into a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.”

It costs a lot less to house people.

Anyone thinking of getting a library card in 2025?

Libraries can be safe places, places for workshops, for resting, learning, computer time, to take breaks from everyday life, warm places, and to read literature and to learn from history and fiction.

I think it’s time to make use of libraries.

So hey, thanks for diverting that hypothetical asteroid, 2024, and I hope 2025 can get its heels dug in and do its best.

I like to think that, anyhow. Since the universe probably doesn’t much care how I picture it, I’d rather have a valiant year doing its best than to spend twelve months muttering that this is the worst year ever. Better for my mental health, anyway.

So for all of last year’s calamities (and there were many) perhaps there would have been far more if 2024 wasn’t flinging itself between us and sundry misfortunes. Maybe it was so busy deflecting a dinosaur killer asteroid or stomping down a resurgence of Justinian’s Plague that the rest got through

Every now and then, as a writer, you come up with an idea better than you deserve, and for me, I always come back to a stray bit of wirldbuilding— idea of fiercely benevolent year-gods that go out to fight off the calamities that would otherwise befall us.
