"The Alchemy Lecture is a multi-vocal, multi-modal model that brings together a constellation of four thinkers and practitioners from different disciplines and geographies annually to think together and in public on the most pressing issues of our times."

New MMI piece! New housing sales data is out, and it's grim. Across Canada's six largest markets, new and pre-construction home sales are down 51% y-o-y. The slowdown isn't just a Toronto condo issue - it crosses geographies and home types.

All geographies are neighbourhoods: full of persons, whether these be human or no!

Saying climate change won’t spell the end of “humanity” embraces the deeply uneven geographies of vulnerability. By centring the resilience of industrialised nations, it disavows the disposability of others. We must resist these efforts to normalise climate necropolitics.
That's a very low bar.

Those most affected by climate change are those who have contributed the least to global CO₂ emissions.

Nailed it: “Longer-term it's far more efficient to bring people closer to good transit than it is to expand good transit to larger geographies. Land use - specifically increased density - is a crucial component to sustainable transit.” @starlinechicago.bsky.social
I really enjoy Joshua's writing, and I'm very happy to see him include this. Longer-term it's far more efficient to bring people closer to good transit than it is to expand good transit to larger geographies. Land use - specifically increased density - is a crucial component to sustainable transit.

geographies are also not neutral in the type of work available - some will have more work that's likely to result in a PIP claim due to poor health & safety, long term intergenerational effects etc.

I’m seeing people identifying this as the suburbs (probably because of the bourgeois white people).

Residential=/=suburbs.

The density and the urban mentality is one of the things that makes this more difficult for ICE. We need to get better at talking about residential geographies. They matter.

This AAPOR report is amazingly comprehensive. It's based on a massive data collection effort that compiled polling across elections at various levels and geographies extending back to 2000.

In museum writing there’s a push and pull between brevity and pedantry. I see a label like this and I know the writer’s pain: trying to be brief while avoiding any possible need for a caveat. The result is an intro that—with the removal of a couple proper nouns—could be about literally anywhere.

Even then I think its really bad: people *vastly* underestimate how much income inequality there is even within small geographies. I have this short paper I need to get off my ass and finish on this, but basically like 99%+ of income variation is within county, and like 80% is within *block*

3/ Anyway, in some geographies, bad effects of climate change (not just disasters) seem likely to pressure reductions in public funding of longer-term investments, such as research & education, even though that will hurt in long term.

History isn't just empires? This sort of visualisation is great, and what complements it is consideration of how people like us lived through those times and across those geographies. The ups and downs of societal history.

I think it’s important for people to understand that different geographies lead to different kinds of resistance. This level of spontaneous resistance requires density and a public-space mentality that is much less common in the suburbs. Different spaces require different planning and expectations.

Tomorrow, I'll be leading an on-the-land Indigenous geographies activity with a group of Montessori teachers in North Vancouver as part of the BC Montessori Teachers Conference!

I'm always excited for the opportunity to get outside with learners and teachers and teach about geography!

Spooky Season 2025, Book #17.
I credit @johnlangan.bsky.social with helping me see I had been negligent in ignoring the Horror genre. After The Fisherman, I decided to see what else I had been missing. I’ve discovered many new favourite books and authors, but Langan still stands out in the crowd.

Me thinking about the numerous Indigenous geographies professorships and scholarships that I'd be endowing with my half of that 967 million:

Like, sorry, North American college/university, your most prestigious chair is not named after some stuffy settler, but it's now the Niiyokamigaabaw Chair.
