Thanks for your patience during our recent outage at scalar.usc.edu. While Scalar content is loading normally now, saving is still slow, and Scalar's 'additional metadata' features have been disabled, which may interfere with features like timelines and maps that depend on metadata. This also means that saving a page or media item will remove its additional metadata. If this occurs, you can use the 'All versions' link at the bottom of the page to restore the earlier version. We are continuing to troubleshoot, and will provide further updates as needed. Note that this only affects Scalar projects at scalar.usc.edu, and not those hosted elsewhere.

Not my problem

People have a tendency to view things as someone else's problem. Lynn sat around waiting for rescue because she transferred the responsibility for her very life to someone else. People in the modern world do the exact same thing. There is a trend of human beings abdicating responsibility for anything in their lives and it will result in living under tyrannical dictators at best, or imminent enslavement or death.
