Hey, that’s my unfortunately evergreen course on the powers and potentials of folk traditions in the face of crisis, violence, and rupture
Are you interested in Folklore? "The Folklore of Emergency" examines the discourses of "crisis" and "emergency." To learn more information about this course and others, visit the "courses" page on the GNS website! gns.wisc.edu/folklore-cours…
Coming Spring 2024 @UWMadGNS Folklore 315: Folklore of Emergency @UWMadison
Just 3 years ago?!?! The shape of time has changed. The speed of culture has warped it.
Dreams: On this day three years ago, TikToker 420doggface208 (real name: Nathan Apodaca) filmed himself skateboarding on the freeway, drinking Ocean Spray cranberry juice and lip-syncing to the song "Dreams" by Fleetwood Mac.
Isn’t the whole point of living in a town like Madison the ability to scooch right off the bike path and feed a pig some tortilla chips and apple slices? Get it together, folks! #keepmadisonweird #saverudi madison.com/news/local/gov…
@jessieopie where is the petition we can sign?!
@MaybeNotPayton in the hodag’s name we pray
h/t @MaybeNotPayton at Flyover Culture for making this #hodag love song, and doing all the fieldwork that went into it!
“It’s more than a creature…it’s more than an icon for the town; it’s kind of like a way of life up here in Rhinelander…[it] connects us all as one.” Watch this ode to #folklore, #supernatural storytelling, and Wisconsin’s favorite #cryptid: The Hodag! youtu.be/6zprRsGgLEo
@PaulaNiedenthal Noooo!! Rudi has been such a joy for my kiddos to visit on our daily commutes!!
