“Hey, are you already there?”. Runner-Up in Already Here Challenge.
Once upon a time, millennials lived in an era where we agreed to a plan once . You’d throw an arm up into the gritty Manhattan air, hop into the back of a yellow cab, and say four words to the driver: take me to Bungalow 8. And somehow, something unimaginable would happen. You’d both arrive at 515 West 27th street at around eleven.

The HPV vaccine story. Top Story - September 2026.
Fun fact! There was the exact same number of eight year old girls in Sweden on 1st January 1994 as 9 year old girls on 1st January 1995. Put simply – none of them died that year. They all got to celebrate a 9th birthday. Isn’t that beautiful? It’s a statistical anomaly – and has not happened before or since, but I love this statistic. [1] It holds an optimism about an imagined future. Accidents, negligence, crime and disease will always exist, but sometimes we can outwit them.

How to Summon Photons with our Fingertips!
Have you ever wondered about the humble light switch - the thing you flick without thinking, the thing so ordinary it’s practically invisible. But if you slow down and look at it the way a time‑traveler from the past might, it’s one of the most quietly science‑fictional objects in your life and home.

Where Are We Going?
Already Here challenge prompt: Write about one technology, tool, or habit in your everyday life that already feels like science fiction, and what it’s quietly changing. Some of the things we use every day would have sounded like science fiction not that long ago. Now they're just part of everyday life. Think about one technology, tool, or everyday habit that already feels like science fiction. It could be something you use every day or something you've only recently started to notice. Explore how it's changing the way people live, work, create, communicate, or think. Whether your piece is personal, analytical, or reflective, stay grounded in the present and consider what these quiet changes might mean.
