On my mind / in my bookmarks:

• archives, and history, and the difference between art and pastiche

• analog photo albums as personal history and community archive

• personal data, and the collection and resale thereof

• on the contrast between what is described as an “epidemic” of male loneliness and the treatment of women-as-infrastructure

• on privilege as the expectation of immunity from upheaval, and how that informs how people react to change

  There were no great truths
  
  revealed to me then. No wisdom
  given to me by anyone. I was a child
  who had seen what a piece of polished wood
  could do to a face, who had seen his father
  about to lose the one he loved, who had lost
  some friends who would never return,
  who, later that morning, bent
  to the earth and went to work.
