So glad I am staying indoors today. We have an incoming storm to #dayoop and I am ready with my #yummysmelling candles and fully charged up devices. Now to download some TEDx talks as an alternative to movies and music. . Watching Tabatha Coffey's TEDx talk currently. Such a powerful talk about being strong and passionate and to help empower others to do the same in a positive way. ❤ . Her positive alternative definition of a not so nice but often thrown around word is awesome: . Brave Intelligent Tenacious Creative Honest . So the next time someone throws this at you in an effort to dim your light or bring you down, remember the above acronym and tell them, "Thank you. I am the best one out here!" . . . . . . #tabathacoffey #tedxtalks #loveeachother #loveyourselftoo #positiveaffirmationsdaily #lifebyme #livehealthylivehappy #yoopermom #yoopergirl #gwinn #lifestyleblogger💖 #betruetoyourself💯 #ownyourthrone👑 #imabitchiknow #imabitchandiknowit #strongwomenquotes #inspireothers #beyoutiful (at Gwinn, Michigan) https://www.instagram.com/p/BwH_POHlF-4/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=s167dg6rs1kt

A brief explanation of the world of Anthology of American folk music, the short story series I am presently working on
Around let’s say 2020 (the year is not important) conservatives control all of American government in an increasingly teneous geopolitical standing
And so in a last ditch effort to maintain global supremacy the US pulls out all the stops and declares war on all non western countries in order to protect its trade routes and markets and ensure consumptive flow and production by introducing more low wage workers kidnapped from warzones
A major group which emerges in the fighting are mercenaries who either come from bloodied lineages with ties to America or reactionary movements who work for the US government and eventually increasingly become present in police action at home as the fighting abroad begins to sour
Many of these mercenaries eventually come to work under the Library of Congress who formulate them into the Army for the Remembrance of Content or ARC, as the federal American government begins to weaken, which it finally virtually collapses with the nuking of DC
With DC nuked (by unknown actors, perhaps the Library of Congress themselves, or their rivals in the Smithsonian in some suicide attempt after a merger) the ARC and LOC move their operations to (you guessed it) Michigan, even prior to this nuking they had many feelers in the state.
Several major warlords emerge from the ashes to secure their control over Michigan, though none are able to fully do it
Perhaps the most notable of these is a former academic known as Ronald Reagan II whose pederastic appetites have been sated by the LOC and ARC after he began to supply them with Heroin.
Heroin and drugs become a practical currency, serving as a recruiting tool for the ARC as the mercenary lineages begin to decrease in number. This creates also a demand for a new drug in the face of potiental subservience to Reagan II’s project.
Another notable figure who emerges is Bobby Symanski (this universe’s unabomber) who becomes the emperor of the Upper Penisula.
A recurring figure in this story whose role has yet to be fully decided is Uthman Ibn Al-Mawt, the son of an Iraqi Ba’athist official whose reputation is one of violence in the war, yet in reality is not nearly as bad as the people he works for
The future follows mostly the ARC, who long ago fully merged with the LOC with the main goal of preserving music. The ARC has a series of kidnapped and brainwashed children who serve as its collectors and mechanics in order to ensure their cultural supremacy, and perhaps one day lend their backing to a worthy warlord who will allow the restoration of civilization
Many of the future’s factions will be recognizable as having roots in the stories in the present/past, with The Imperial Real of DaYoop, the Republic of Trawerse, NeuNederland, Halamazue (the only truly new polity in the future), the Soviet of Keecago-Derought, The Oonited States, and The Sultanate of Al-Meshegaan all having traceable origins in the past.
There’s also flashbacks to previous points in American history- I’m mostly thinking the American “Revolution”, the Civil war, the Nixon presidency and the Reagan presidency (the American Rev and Reagan Presidency stories are already written!)

NASA reports that 2016 was the warmest year on record. As someone who has grown up in the remote #wilderness we refer to as the #upperpeninsula (or #dayoop), I know #climatechange is perceptible in the environment around us. How can we learn by observing patterns in our corner of the world? As makers, how do we depict the environment around us? How does this land/sea figure into our daily lives? What changes have you witnessed? What can we do to #adapt for a better future? What in your daily #landscape are you most thankful for? How do we impact/lesson human impact on our world? Tag your images and answers: #survivetheanthro . . . . #devosart #marquette #michigan #sidewalkscenes #safeharbor #marina #visualculturedoessomeheavylifting #lakesuperior #greatlakesseascapes #greatlakes #followtheraindrop #waterislife #watershed #seascape #icemelt #sharenmu #uppermichigan #someplacespecial PS go check out the exhibition, Surviving the Anthropocene, at the #devosartmuseum on the campus of #NMU. It open this Friday and will be on display through July. http://ift.tt/2jCse5W
