@AnnaNReser Surely true — but there is little to do with nukes that is not problematic in one way or another.

.@wellerstein eh, that's a cop out. If you of all people aren't going to be critical about representations of nuclear history, who is?

@AnnaNReser I think it's a fairly complex little piece of cultural work if I do say so myself. I do put thought into these things.

@wellerstein I see what you're getting at - it's a good impulse I just don't think you can overcome the banality of the calendar format.

@AnnaNReser My major efforts are always about riding that line, because it's the only way anything gets beyond academic circles.

@wellerstein no objection to your intent here. Just as a design person, I think the calendar form works against your purpose.

@wellerstein the form itself is about being noncontroversial and pleasing to look at.

@AnnaNReser @wellerstein sorry to butt in but I too blinked @ the calendar medium. I had more of an issue w fetishism than contextualization
