No but in all seriousness, this is a truly wacky (derogatory) convergence of bioessentialism, eugenics, toxic masculinity, and fascism

Liz Soto and Savanna Batten are 2 of those sentenced to 50 years in prison for Prairieland. I visited them in a north Texas jail—11 months into their incarceration over a July 4 noise demo—to meet the Trump admin’s “Antifa terrorists”. from behind glass, Soto said, “They didn’t like my book club.”

Somehow pundits have convinced Americans "elite" means "people with a college degree" and not "the handful of billionaires who own almost everything"

Yeah, I don't see how we could fix this through better course design (especially for online asynchronous courses). I don't know what the solution is, but telling teachers to just do better and figure it out sure isn't working!

I’ve been sitting on this really cool historical document about life in Indigenous 16th century Appalachia for seven years. Since today is Indigenous People’s Day, I’m going to translate it and put it on my website instead of waiting for the perfect moment.

Imagine interviewing a guy about some shitty unbuilt dam in Colorado and he just eloquently lays out the whole of US history in this snappy little quote. King shit.

It wasn't the vision and principles of our forefathers that made this country great. It was the huge unused bonanza they found here. One wave of
immigrants after another could оссиру new land, new land, new land. There was topsoil, water—there was gold, silver, and iron ore lying right on top of the earth. We picked our way through a ripe orchard and made it bare.

Ok no need to be rude! People who were 10-15 around 9/11 are in their mid- to late-thirties now and don't seem to be the primary drivers of the Y2K nostalgia wave (which is more a Gen Z trend, as you alluded to)

I wonder if this holds true for cohorts who were 10-15 during tumultuous eras? I'm thinking of post-9/11, early covid, etc.

Yes! I saw a talk years ago about how the completion of Tioga Rd in Yosemite (1950s) fully reoriented visitors' experiences around car culture. It basically turned the valley into CA's most scenic traffic jam for a few decades. Roads make "wilderness" more accessible but also more consumable
