“Katrina, it turns out, wasn’t a singular anomalous crisis. It was the beginning of a new era in which the reality of the storms and coastal surges was plain to see and looked nothing like the past. People began to realize that adaptation was less of an option than it used to be. Many simply had to leave. Almost every parish closest to the coast…has been fast losing population” https://www.propublica.org/article/climate-migration-louisiana-slidell-flooding re: #managedretreat et al.

On mechanical slavery, on the slavery of the machine, the future of the world depends.” https://www.counterpunch.org/2024/02/14/how-we-can-achieve-american-social-democracy/ *maybe just me but seems a weird way to frame/introduce #FullyAutomatedLuxuryCommunism ?

"For all of Americans’ faults and missteps, irrationalities and peculiarities, this was a country that I always assumed, on some level, made some kind of sense. There were strange tales, but they were blips, errata, diversions. But the more time I’ve spent in this country, the more I’ve come to see these moments of oddness as central to the American story. The United States, in a word, is eerie." https://www.atlasobscura.com/articles/column-mad-gasser-of-mattoon via #AtlasObscura
