Working my way through Ken Burns's "The American Revolution" and wasn't aware that VACCINATION WAS KEY TO WINNING THE REVOLUTION!?! This point feels...relevant to the present day.
Watercolor still from "The American Revolution" documentary depicting of one of George Washington's army recruits being inoculated against smallpox during the Revolutionary War.

When I last taught my critical economic geographies course, one of my exam questions asked students to think like a capitalist and devise a spatial fix for an overaccumulation scenario that was eerily similar to today's new rash of data centers. Feel free to offer your own response!

Seeking geographic accounts of grift by 10/17. We expect your abstracts to have the integrity of the President of the United States! Thank you for your attention to this matter!

Rubio looks like he is corroding from the inside and Trump looks like when you look in the mirror on hallucinogens. 💀😱

Taught about finance and debt this week through Ananya Roy's idea of the south as a structural relation rather than a location, reading @radicalcarib.bsky.social, Sage Ponder, Kathryn Furlong, Destin Jenkins. Love how this idea helps students make connections across scale and geography!

Uppsala dispatch: the snails here are disconcertingly large. (Toe for scale)
