its beautiful how anthropology went from one the most racist social sciences to that_friend_whose_too_woke.png
As an anthropologist, if the only thing I ever did all day was remind people that before the privatization and commodification of land humans had way more free time and peace of mind, it would still not do a dent in how deep this myth has burrowed into people's colonized minds like a parasite
Liberalism is pretty good actually, it's why we have the time and peace of mind enough to even be having these discussions. Every tangible step towards civil rights is founded on the stability brought about under liberalism

had to drive into downtown a bit ago for something and i was like "damn, do you guys really do this every day"
Trying to drive in Toronto is hell
Half of business owners on this Toronto street estimated that more than 25% of their customers arrived by car.
In fact, it was 4%.
And the % of customers who who walked or cycled? 72%.
Retailers routinely overestimate the # of “car customers.” Via @carltonreid.com www.forbes.com/sites/carlto...

the whole "medieval life expectancy is skewed by childhood mortality" thing makes me wonder if anyone's tried estimating, like, a formal mortality table for 1400s western europe
