There is something very, very odd about a society that is simultaneously more thoroughly and constantly saturated in media than any human group has been during the entire history of our species... but also finds it puzzling why studying art & literature might be worthwhile.
I agree that it’s high fucking time that we stopped acting like we need to grovel and constantly justify the existence of some of our most incredibly elemental and ancient human pursuits.
Are the humanities the only disciplines whose classes begin with modules speaking to the importance of studying the humanities? "Why study the humanities?" and "Why the humanities are important" must be cliches.

Portobello/Portabella mushrooms are not Italian, they're not even a species, they're the mature form of the common button mushroom.
Previously just animal feed, farmers in the '80s rebranded it using an "Italianish" name from a London road and marketed it to high end restaurants
