In the single bathroom we all shared, a thick paperback with a glossy cover showed a shirtless pioneer, bronze muscles bulging. He held the tiny waist of an otherwise buxom woman clutching what appeared to be an animal hide to her otherwise naked body.

I recently started watching nature documentaries with my daughter, thinking it was going to be a relaxing, educational answer to the moral dilemma of screentime-brain-rot. I imagined us both marveling over interesting facts about the earth and the animal kingdom, looking up various locations on a map, talking about hemispheres and the distance between the poles. I would get to introduce her to the endlessly delightful world of collective noun trivia.
