2 consecutive stories with no gendered protagonists.
This week on my #podcast I return to my discussion of The Culture setting and explore the Culture’s origins and its structure of government, such as it is.

I just showed up
Stumbled in
if you must know
Now I am here
in a smoke filled room
where nothing is clear
Only a matter of time
before someone in authority
whispers in my ear
I am in the wrong
and proclaims I do not belong
in this
wherever the fuck I am place
I take a lot of pride in being quite "techy” and able to sort out programs, menus, and get a gist of things.
