"Capital," new essay at On the Seawall

A new essay, "Capital," has been published at On the Seawall. An excerpt:

Evansville, Indiana is not, an Evansville, Indiana news station reports (based on a press release from the Evansville, Indiana police department), the meth capital of the world. The Russian-oligarch-backed website named Evansville, Indiana the meth capital of the world, and, yes, certain posts on certain social media sites have been popping up again recently, but Evansville, Indiana is not the meth capital of the world.
