Embrace accelerationism, Geoff. 5000 years of civilization are at least 2000 too many. It's much too late now. The candle must be lit at both ends. All resources depleted. All thought ended. We've gone too far. It's terrible to live so late. Time for time to begin again.
Imagine humanities scholarship that was serious, diligent, heterodox, witty, awe-inspiring, and respectful about our civilizational legacies. It used to exist. It could again. Everyone would benefit. #draintheMLA

What does serious humanities scholarship look like? Its not ever going to look like math or science. At best it could be like philosophy.

This is what my idealized, former, understanding of what humanities study was to be. Sigh, so tragic.
