Yes, hello, is that God? Yeah, hi. I have a complaint. You gave me this brain that’s designed for finding berries and avoiding lions and now people are ‘just circling back’ to see if we can ‘move the needle’ on ‘key initiatives’? NONE of those things are berries.

No one I know is mourning Khamenei because he was a mass murderer. We’re worried because we also know what the Americans and Israelis are: mass murderers.

Correct — it’s simple but at the same time it’s hard because it involves being vulnerable, something that many dominant cultures don’t encourage. The minute you are kind to someone, you open up the possibility of them taking the piss. And yet you must try

I just found out about this via the Uncanny Landscapes newsletter and I'm very excited to read it! Very relevant to some of the @futurenatures.bsky.social work on English commons and the things that landscapes mean to people, and why it is good to think about struggles in commons & commoning now.

What’s going on with meat in South Africa? “Durban’s wealthiest minibus-taxi family is said to have recently purchased a couple of cattle farms that will supply their taxi-rank butcheries with a consistent supply of slaughtered meat.” repairproject.org/Blog/getting...

Getting beyond the formal/informal divide - REPAiR project

A simple distinction between 'informal' and 'formal' meat production in South Africa is misleading, and may generate unhelpful responses in policy.

I came to Minneapolis to report on what's going on, and one of the main questions I showed up with is "just what is the scale of the resistance?" After all, we're all used to the news calling Portland a "war zone" or whatever when it's just some protests in one part of town.

The state uses religion as a tool to enforce fascism, and they do so badly, all over the world. Most religions boil down to "be good to each other" and most of the religious people I've met in my life know that.
