Hurricane Harvey Update

Here's a podcast featuring Tim Morton, speaking from the flood. He and his family are OK, though a bit wet. He's discussing the hurricane and philosophy. "But is it a hyperobject, Tim?" Tim gets this question ALL the time now, as though he's adjudicator-in-chief for hyperobects. He is not, and, yes, Hurricane Harvey is a hyperobject.

Hey, Professor Tim? Is this flotilla of fire ants a hyper object?
