The Death of the URL
I don’t know about you, but a future without URLs and without the infinite organicity of the web frightens me. It’s not that I know what we’ll lose by removing this artifact of one of the most generative periods in history — and that’s exactly the point! The URL and the ability for anyone to mint a new one and then propagate it is what makes the web so resilient, so empowering, and so interesting! That I don’t need to ask anyone permission to create a new website or webpage is a kind of ideological freedom that few generations in history have known!

Saw this bumper sticker at Barton Creek mall. I parked in front of Sears and almost every third car had placas Mexicanas.
Hillbilly
At a Michigan grocery. This is what they think of Southerners up North. A bit essentialist
