This talk has been cancelled due to potential strike activity on the UCSC campus, we will hopefully reschedule it for Spring 2022.

Taking recent discussions of "Copernican Forecasting" as a point of departure, this talk will look to historical and probabilistic arguments representing science in terms of ongoing demonstrations of the increasingly marginal position of humanity.  A sketch of some of the genealogies of these arguments and their representations suggest how ill-fitting they might be when set against varying historical conceptions of centrality, probability, and forecasting.
