I did like 8,000 words of straightforward political economic history, so I get to start opening paragraphs like this now:

A snippet of text, reading: "In a dream I once saw a kind of psychic barometer for misery. Such a device would have let scientists quantify the global load of human pain, measuring daily as well as annual fluctuations in suffering. Given that social scientists are already an unhappy enough lot, it is probably for the best that this tool does not exist – but if it had, it would have registered the neoliberal restructuring of society as an epochal transition. We will cover the quantitative effects of these policies on things like wages and the labour-share of national incomes in the next chapter, but in a sweeping historical sense, this is the"

so like this section is a history of the world economy from 1929-todayish, and it's obviously dry. instead of just struggling through I've just been giving my own Mystery Science Theatre-style running commentary on what I'm talking about. I hope this is a good idea lol

When I'm giving a lecture and I can see that people are getting bored or checking out, I just start telling jokes or swearing so they get pulled back in. I've been really dragging on this part of my book so I've started just doing the same thing and writing down how I actually think about this stuff

the hardest part of being a precarious academic worker is that you need to have research outputs to get a big girl job, but in order to get a big girl job, you must write job applications instead of working on research outputs

we're good! Kendra's PhD is coming along, and my book is just about ready for me to send it to the publisher 😭😭😭 This student and I were talking about managers and professionals in the class structure and they were only really familiar with much weaker analyses than yours - they seemed excited!

As our press spokesperson @cannibality.bsky.social explained on this Marae panel, the FBI Wellington office must close, because it will further subordinate us to American capitalist imperialism through it advising New Zealand Police to more effectively repress Māori, Pasifika, workers and the left.

you'd have like ex-Black Hundreds joining the Red Army and shit too. Like it definitely doesn't mean we need to coddle reaction, but it does show that giving people a working model for the world and letting them adopt it can matter. Puyi in Mao's China is a more extreme example lol

Our press spokesperson @cannibality.bsky.social will be speaking at this rally against the FBI's new office in Wellington tomorrow at 1PM at the US Consulate on how the office is part of the American capitalist imperialist regime's efforts to export their policing model to ensure Pacific domination.

The American spy base opening in Wellington is a backdoor to American imperialism controlling our country. We must reject our comprador government's attempts to tie us into the American empire. Join us tomorrow at 1pm outside the US consulate and show we want these spies out!

I can't remember if I read in Stone or Serano the framing that doctors wrote books about how to distinguish the few worthy trans people from the unworthy crowd and then had a profession-wide meltdown when they discovered that trans people can read books
