Academic writing on critical cartography really does feel like people trying drugs for the first time

To be clear I think critical cartography is fine as a thing to do, I just don't know if I need to think hard on how maps are theoretically rhizomes in a state of becoming to appreciate critical cartography

@ingrid well, from my perspective, the whole maps are rhizomes thing is not only a 50-year-old thought, it’s based on 100-year-old misconception (the same one it was coined to displace!).

@mhedney OMG hello, your work specifically has been a balm and tremendously helpful (I am in the midst of quals reading)

@ingrid thanks! Wondrous reaction…much appreciated!! I do like empirically informed conceptual work!
