This term has had an unusually complicated start -- I was originally doing three in-person classes, then two of those got canceled and replaced by two synchronous online courses, then the last in-person class was canceled and replaced by a condensed asynchronous online course, which I'm currently doing the preparation for, and I'll likely have another asynchronous online course, assuming it makes. The difficulty, of course, is just that at this point nobody quite knows what's needed until it's needed, so there's a lot of juggling going on by everyone. In any case, I only mention it because it explains why I am still finishing up Burney's Camilla for the Fortnightly Book and why substantive posts will probably continue to be only occasional for a while.

A lot of this is tied, I suspect, to something I've often thought, which is that wide support for abortion seems closely tied to how much people are entangled in a system and way of life that requires something like it.
