Notes

T.J. LeCain, “Against the Anthropocene: A Neo-Materialist Perspective,” International Journal for History, Culture, and Modernity 3, no. 1 (2015). I would revise the suggestion to say, “not hospitable to the sort of intelligent life that humans have historically delivered.” As cognitive psychologists have repeatedly demonstrated, our intelligence is of a peculiar and habitually wayward kind.
