Mostly hopeful with a sprinkle of doom ... "Modernity is post-apocalyptic. It's been that way from the start. It is born out of devastation: the destruction of the fabric of the living world... It won't be OK, it never was and never could have been." amazon.com/At-Work-Ruins-Pan…

My essay for the new @darkmtn book tells the story of how @bjorkmananna and I came to start a school called HOME. It's also about why you can't order "food" in a restaurant and how come none of the chairs around our kitchen table match. dougald.substack.com/p/the-k…
