The Great American Wasteland, Chapter 2 Pt. 3

When the Colonizers Arrive

It’s a special evening for some of you Down the Pipes loyalists out there, we’re getting back into my totally unfinished, kind of mortifying book thing, The Great American Wasteland.

This is a project I started on a career sabbatical in 2015 that ultimately changed the course of my entire life, though in exactly none of the ways I expected it to.

If you’re a free subscriber or first time reader, you can check out Part 1 for free, and if you’re a longtime subscriber or friend on the comp list then you should have full access to the paywalled version via your inbox or your Substack login. Everyone else: Consider a free trial, otherwise we’ll see ya next week.
