And I don't know if the answer is: everyone is too traumatized to do work and we need to reinvent society. Or if it's more like: generations are losing their cognitive abilities and willpower due to destructive technologies. Or: we all have post-viral brain damage. Or: all of the above.

At this point, our intro comp/first-year English course has been so heavily revised, it no longer includes a novel, or "extended reading" of any kind, no "specialized" or "historical" reading, mostly in-class assignments, no research essay...and we are still seeing a 40-50% rate of AI misconduct.

Of Sometime Lofty Towers I wrote, 'That’s David C. Smith, who’s been around for ages, but like Late Yeats or Late Shakespeare, the late phase is a sting in the tail, it’s layered, it’s saturated in experience, it’s complex and disconcertingly simple.'

The printing quality exceeds my expectations, and the colors came out exactly as I wanted them this time around.

I'm over the moon.
