The paper is really interesting, but the framing of the reporting around it is honestly hilarious. "Honey, we're going to have to cut back on our climate change this year. With the car payments and little Timmy's braces, we just can't afford it."

We'll be welcoming all of the new undergraduate students to @KBS_Kent over the next few days. As part of my "Welcome to KBS" talks, I give them all these challenges for their first year.

"Doomist thinking is dangerous because it breeds paralysis and disengagement, which is precisely what the forces of climate inaction seek" is a really interesting mechanism of affective control/a way to enforce mandatory hopefulness. https://t.co/gCo9nNqnTm

The truth about global warming is bad enough. We don’t need harmful hyperbole

I apologize in advance to anyone in my life who comes to me with a genuine problem in the next year, and has to watch me pause, think carefully, and then say "I have a solution: Wolves". In my defence, it's a good solution.

Resisting is a part of the process & even the acceleration of capitalism's destructive tendencies can easily become part of its process. We thus conclude that teaching in a business school is a necessarily depressing affair. Thanks to @fdevaujany for the editorial support 4/4

Drawing on the work of Deleuze and Guattari, we explore a vision of capitalism that fully grapples with its ability to liberate desire. Under such a reading, any strategy that one adopts will be re-appropriated and recaptured by capitalism and used to further its own ends. 3/4

In this paper, we explore the pedagogic impasse that many of us who work in Business Schools today find ourselves in. We want encourage resistance and have a positive impact on the world, but no strategy seems capable of producing change. 2/4

Happy to see this paper out. If one wanted to encourage critical, revolutionary, sociopolitical change, what would one teach in a Business School? 1/4

Spent the last week greenfield camping in a field in Barham with the @scouts and other leaders of 16th Canterbury. Everyone had an amazing time doing archery, air rifle shooting, incident hikes, cooking over fires, and telling stories etc. Now to get home and have a proper wash!

As epistolary, queer, posthuman, romance: 9/10. Beautiful. Heartrending. Involving. As a metaphysically challenging book about a time war: 0/10. Contains no mention of syzegetic lemurs. Sometimes book covers can in fact be misleading.

A Biden administration report required by Congress outlines research options for a last-ditch effort to slow the heating of the planet. But the White House says it's not changing its climate strategy.

Don't mind me, I'm just collecting stories about sewage for very normal reasons that have nothing to do with spending too much time reading Libidinal Economy.
