Worked on the arc for MINOS. Think I’ve cracked it… but I seriously need to work on BECKY instead as the Strange Horizon’s Copaganda contest is due November 21st.

I’ve been thinking a lot about the “starter pack” I got in life and the starter pack I’m providing my kids and keep getting reminded of how extremely lucky and privileged I am. Yes, I grew up poor-ish to immigrant parents, but I was born in the 80s in Canada. If you take away 1987’s Black Monday, that is a 18 year bull run from 1982 to 2000. My blue collar father got raises, we bought a house for 280k in the early 90s in East Vancouver, and I, as a son of an immigrant, went to university and catapulted, through a white-collar profession, my family into upper-ish middle class. I was blessed with my father’s memory, an above average intelligence, and an overabundance of energy, a somewhat higher set-point on the optimism thermometer, and remarkably little health issues after a somewhat sickly childhood. (So I got a dairy intolerance. Boo fucking hoo). I’m writing all this because this past week, I had encounters with several people who are absolutely, decidedly less fortunate than I am on the health side, physical, mental, psychological, emotional… and this past month or so, I’ve simply been more aware of it, and hoping I can in turn, be more sensitive to it.
