The 20th annual conference of the International Association for the Study of Environment Space and Place is on in April. Looks really interesting - I'll be out of the country, but I hope lots of others are able to make it. iasesp.org/conferences/…

When it comes to movies, I still measure time by when I moved to the US. Before is long ago, after is recent. Thing is, I moved in 2003. I might have to update my reference point sometime. We're coming up on a quarter century.

The criminal gets another pass on his criminality. These charges could have been stayed until he was no longer president. Can we at least make all the evidence public? It's not the same as being held responsible in court, but it's not nothing either.…

95% of the discussion on Florida Facebook groups: Everything bad in Florida comes from somewhere else! Stay out of the left lane! Don't tell me not to speed! Miami sucks! No it doesn't! Yankees suck! Canadians suck! Everyone else sucks! I suspect some…

The MAGA doctrine of not taking responsibility for anything is going to run into the inconvenient fact that they control the Presidency, Congress, the Supreme Court, many lower courts, and many governor's houses. Still, everything bad will be all the fault…

Starting to wonder whether the US is going to disallow dual citizenship at some point (some other countries do). If that happens, I'm Canadian. Easy choice. But I assume I'd have a hard time getting a work visa then, so who knows if I'd still have a job?

Ok, I’ve had an account on this platform for awhile, but haven’t paid much attention to it. Let’s see what’s going on here. I’m looking for other philosophers (and humanities academics in general), Africa people, digital humanities people.

So, if anyone was looking to get my recent book, African Philosophy and Enactivist Cognition: The Space of Thought, but thought it was too expensive (yes, it was), there’s now a pre-order link for the paperback version, due out in the new year. …
