I'd like a miracle please. I'd like someone really wonderful (Francesca Albanese? Bernie Sanders?) to be made omnipotent for a goundhog day style eternity until everything's fixed.

The UN gets teeth and somehow also proportional representation for all citizens meaning Russia, the US the UK etc lose their veto powers.

Trump, Putin, NutterYahoo and several others find themselves on a chain gang with itching powder in their underwear.

Haiti gets the help it needs.

Ukraine & the now Putin-free Russia call it quits.

Israel has their weapons removed. Gaza gets rebuilt for Palestinians.

Yemen, Sudan, Myanmar etc. etc. sort their shit out.

Nuclear weapons turn into festering pizza.

Humans realise that we live in a time of plenty and wealth isn't measured in money nor is it something to be hoarded.

Maybe then I'll stop wandering around listlessly failing to get anything done.

Biking between Berlin and the Baltic Sea and reading Luise Meier's utopian post-collapse novel Hyphen. Set in this region, it imagines a near future where the breakdown of electricity gives rise to mutual aid, collective care, and a post-internet encyclopedia - all growing like mycelial threads. A moral booster in these times.

Written in German, but hopefully translations are on the horizon…

Ihr wisst doch immer alles: Kennt ihr witzige, verspielte, kreative Seiten, Apps, Projekte oder so zum Thema „Utopia“? Ich suche noch bisschen Inspiration für eine bunte Seite. Es geht um reale und utopische Gedankenspielereien. Ich hab schon: Tiny Forests, dutschcyclinglifestyle.com, Infothek für Realutopien, die 15-Minutenstadt, den Parking Day und was zu Gebäudenegrünung. Cool wäre ein Bezug zu Kiel/ Schleswig-Holstein/Familien!

That's my wonderful British editor Cressida Downing and me last October in Kent where she promised to help me make my books (plural!) fit for the international market. My first fiction #book is out now in English! 🎉 Please have fun reading my utopian #novella "2042 – The Forbidden Library", a #ClimateOptimism book about wild animal help and #UrbanGardening in a post-war Europe in 2042. #Utopia #ClimateFiction
