Has anyone written about why modern camper design is so terrible and how after the mid-to-late 80s it all just became black and white and beige and unhinged reject font graphics or should I? Write that? Book-length even?

Love that a FAQ on the City of Whitehorse "snow & ice control" webpage is "what does the city do?" I asked same when a tow truck tried to pull a stuck cab from my unplowed neighbourhood & got stuck, & when I found out a fuel truck left behind a Sarlacc Pit of danger after getting stuck also.

BLACK BEAR: A STORY OF SIBLINGHOOD AND SURVIVAL (Knopf Canada, January 6, 2026):
When Trina Moyles was five years old, her father, a wildlife biologist known in Peace River as “the bear guy,” brought home an orphaned black bear cub for a night before sending it to the Calgary Zoo. This brief but unforgettable encounter spurred Trina’s lifelong fascination with Ursus americanus—the most populous bear on the northern landscape, often considered a nuisance to human society. As a child roaming the shores of the Peace in the footsteps of her beloved older brother, she understood bears to be invisible entities: always present but mostly hidden and worthy of respect. Growing up during the oil boom of the 1990s, the threats in the siblings’ hard-drinking resource town were more human, dividing them from a natural reverence for the land, and eventually, from each other.
After years of working for human rights organizations, Trina returned to northern Alberta for a job as a fire tower lookout, while her brother worked in the oil sands, vulnerable to a boom-and-bust economy and substance addiction. When she was assigned to a tower in a wildlife corridor, bears were alarmingly visible and plentiful, wandering metres away on t…
