NEW YORK—Calling it a “historic moment” in women’s basketball history, the WNBA announced Wednesday that the league would expand into three more cities as its Caitlin Clark cloning experiment neared completion. “Soon, Cleveland, Detroit, and Philadelphia will reap the rewards of our effort to bioengineer several perfect replicas of Caitlin Clark,” said WNBA commissioner Cathy Engelbert, adding that the league would have the capacity to populate 18 teams with exact genetic copies of the point guard once the clones were finally done incubating. “Fans all over the United States and Canada will be able to watch dozens of Clarkoids that have been grown in a vat of nutrient-rich solutions housed deep beneath the WNBA’s headquarters. And by 2030, we hope to launch even more teams filled with opposing clones of Angel Reese.” At press time, the WNBA had paused their new franchises after an entire team of Caitlin Clark replicas spontaneously began vomiting blood and exploding into piles of viscera just a few minutes into their debut exhibition game.

For the next six months, Reasons to be Cheerful is exploring the Mississippi River Basin, home to some of the most pressing challenges in the United States.
A symbol of America, the Mississippi River Basin connects a vast region of farms, cities, dams and natural habitats that support a range of biodiversity across hundreds of thousands of square miles. It is one of America’s greatest resources, providing energy generation, agricultural sustenance and transportation. These aspects make the river and the region a fascinating lens through which to view the country’s ecological, economic and cultural challenges — and their solutions.
I made this playlist for the series with songs about the Mississippi — not the state, though that too, but more the giant river and its watershed.
