Your first major decision is what to call the penis. \u201cDo go for the etymological dictionary for epithets that feel historical: like, membrum virile, arbor vitae (from the late eighteenth century, for a type of evergreen shrub), wrinkly (early fifteenth century) or bole (early fourteenth century, from Old Norse bolr meaning tree trunk).\u201d From here, it\u2019s all smooth sailing.<\/li>\n<li>Today in creative responses to impending doom: Leslie Jamison has collaborated with the photographer Ryan Spencer on <em>Such Mean Estate<\/em>, which \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.guernicamag.com\/interviews\/scenes-from-the-end-of-the-world\/\" target=\"_blank\">interweaves photographs of episodes from apocalypse movies with what Jamison refers to as her catechism<\/a>: an essay structured as a series of questions and answers pertaining to the images on the page.\u201d \u201cI was really drawn to the sense of aloneness that rose from so many of these images,\u201d Jamison says, \u201cI also like the way that apocalypse scenarios in film sometimes allow an outsider\u2014a wacko scientist, ignored Cassandra prophet, loner\u2014to play some crucial or necessary role, to become part of his community again.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>Wittgenstein\u2019s language philosophy is surprisingly relevant to the way we interact online: \u201cThe shift to online communication, textual interactions separated from accompanying physical practices, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.slate.com\/articles\/life\/classes\/2015\/09\/take_a_wittgenstein_class_he_explains_the_problems_of_translating_language.single.html\" target=\"_blank\">has had a persistent and egregious warping effect on language, and one that most people don\u2019t even understand<\/a>. It has made linguistic practice more limited, more universal, and more ambiguous. More people interact with one another without even realizing they are following different rules for words\u2019 usages. There is no time or space to clarify one\u2019s self.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>Since humankind has essentially turned the planet into a mall, it\u2019s time to refurbish our concept of nature\u2014time to acknowledge, that is, that nature is a mall, and to maintain it as such. \u201cNo place is natural any longer, and so the entire environment has become in a certain sense a built environment \u2026 If the entire environment has become a built environment, would that not then mean that it was time to think about an <em><a href=\"http:\/\/www.utne.com\/environment\/environmental-ethics-ze0z1508zcwil.aspx?PageId=1\" target=\"_blank\">environmentalism of the built environment<\/a><\/em>? Indeed, one might even start to wonder whether the emphasis on the protection of nature\u2014if nature is gone, or even if nature is simply going\u2014might actually be an obstacle to clear environmental thinking: if most or all of the world that \u2018environs\u2019 us is not natural, shouldn\u2019t it be the built environment, and not nature, that is the focus of our environmental concern?\u201d<\/li>\n<li>Jason Scott is \u201cthe guy who can save bits of history right before they disappear.\u201d He digitizes things.
