"We are all born ignorant, but one must work hard to remain stupid." - Benjamin Franklin (attributed).

Here's Nescience taking his little its little ones for a little summer vacation (or maybe it's them that took it there.) It should've been pixel arty but I didn't know how to do it when I created the whole calendar. Also not to hype anyone up but big things are coming this month.

Optimism is the most beautiful form of nescience.

Calamity form is therefore profoundly anxiogenic. It raises the possibility not only that nothing we do matters but that everything we have done has doomed us in large and small ways. Nonetheless, reading calamity form invites us to consider how literature, the zone of de dicto par excellence, provides alternatives to the wholesale voiding of imaginative possibilities for future worlds. Nescience does not mark the end of optative thinking but rather is a provocation to it—an apostrophe, as it were, of the mind.
