“Stars, moons, and planets remind us of protons, neutrons, and electrons. Is there a bigger being walking with all the stars within?“—Margaret Lanterman 90s Primetime at TV CLUB is BACK! Twin Peaks, Season 2 Sundays 2-4 PM Pacific www.WendingSpace.com

"As above, so below, the human being finds himself, or herself, in the middle. There is as much space outside the human proportionally as inside. Stars, moons, and planets remind us of protons, neutrons, and electrons. Is there a bigger being walking with all the stars within? Does our thinking affect what goes on outside us and what goes on inside us? I think it does. Where does creamed corn figure into the workings of the universe? What really is creamed corn? Is it a symbol for something else?"
- Margaret Lanterman

Happy Solstice, dear readers! DAYLIGHTS, the arts magazine for music lovers, is here :) The mag is designed to bring us all a bit of mid-Winter sunshine and also to document some of the brilliant writers, artists, and critics of our community ♡ Available in print & digital: www.daylightsmag.com

$Daylights cover: December 2025 DAYLIGHTS the arts mag for music lovers a shimmery refracted rainbow on sunlight through the waters with article titles$ $Daylights Contents: articles with pages, photos, and an editor's note: Thank you for your support on Daylights’ first issue! We believe in the power of Queer community, especially in times of adversity, and we appreciate you for helping to make this shared place of readers. This micro literary magazine is made to document our community and is designed to be cut up, collaged, or turned into art your way! Just as we are also the New Romantics, you, Dear Reader, are a part of what makes Daylights too ♡ This inaugural issue centers on solstice and the importance of honoring the cycles of seasons and life. We meet legendary anarchist Elsa Gidlow, the lesbian poet warrior, and receive her annual Winter’s blessing of Chains of Fire connecting us to our sapphic ancestors: you’re not alone. We also get into the mother core of creation and why yellow connects to closeting (page 8). We hope this refracted rainbow of queer media is a beam of sunlight to your soul.$
