If you aren't following *Shannon Mattern* you may well be missing giant chunks of time re-examined, multi-disciplinary critical thinking, and a kind of hyper-sublime curiosity summoning new found critical epiphanies.

She explores historical medias, digital overlays onto archeology and social intersections that challenge our modern cultural reliance on siloed singular discipline knowledge bodies.

I just boosted one of her posts. Reflexively. Without examining it. It had the vibe. Upon examination I got lost in the rabbit hole. Wound up in an adjacent article on the same site regarding architecture and climate.

"Both material and social-cultural, both product and agent, architecture and climate therefore also have an opportunity to create alternative material and social-cultural configurations that nurture a different set of forces and functions. If architecture is climate, then climate breakdown is inherently accompanied by an architecture breakdown as well. Responding to the urgent need for reinvention in the way we understand, practice, and teach architecture demands an engagement with activism, politics, and education. Architecture must become relational, subjective, and interconnected; both planetarily bound and supported; inclusive beyond the human; caring, curious, and brave."

Nature, design, climate and consilience are here under the rubric of architecture.

Enjoy.

@shannonmattern Is *thick-time* a thing, an object of measure, a utilizable frame? Could it be applied to these structures of time embrasure, of future description, mutations, events and transmutations? I see you as an innovator in the juggling of temporalities, of time-presence consilience. Spitballing. Thanks!

@shannonmattern I'm indebted to Shannon Mattern for adding time to the critical thinking equations. Thickening Time is a sure schema-buster.

Today is the 50th anniversary of the *Roe v. Wade* decision. Heather Cox Richardson's daily *Letters from an American* is an accessible, insightful contextualizing of todays politics in history. An educational antidote to the ceaseless onslaught on our rights, and humanity itself, in the *Present Moment.* Follow on substack. Expand the time horizon.

Here's her brief lookback at Roe.
