David Lammy, you can't hide!

Hundreds of people currently heading to his constituency office to call his complicity in genocide out!

Although it kinda makes you rethink your life choices when you're reading this while carrying your 10-weeks-old baby in a sling...

A very powerful book on love and how we all somehow fail at it.

It's a deeply political and personal critique of what it means to love (and be loved) in our patriarchal, transphobic and consumerist society.

Probably the most important book we will read this year!

Just read Chapter 5 of Marx's Capital Vol.3 on the Economy in the Use of Constant Capital as part of a reading group, and it is actually very useful to understand the whole Deepseek/Open AI stuff and how this relates to (lack of) innovation.

And that last sentence of the chapter is ever so topical!

Good piece on the whole deepseek thing!

📣📣 New paper out 📣📣

We explore why many rural Cambodians are borrowing money to bolster their health, and how these loans are in turn impacting their physical, psychological, emotional and social health.

In short, the rural poor in Cambodia are sick of debt!

Children in Gaza have made up the MAJORITY of casualties. Most of them being between 6 and 9yo. Most of them killed in their homes.

These statistics must become tragedies.

just spent 30min searching how we actually define the beginning of Spring and I can confidently say that I'm team meteorologists (1st March). Forget what astronomists say(20th).

Been wanting to read this for a long while. Exciting stuff!

The politics of the nuclear family in an age of overlaping crises.

Socialist communizing or barbarism.

A depressing (but illuminating) read on why Netflix movies are so shit, and why the platform couldn't care less.

That really stuck with me. How Spotify pushes a certain way of making music. So depressing.

Also has an article in English by Julian Go: 'Theorising racial capitalism: critique, contingency and context'.

2 hours spent in the pit at IDLES. One thing I love about moshpits is how most people do take care of each other. Always beautiful!

The final paper, by @sarastevano.bsky.social, extends the notion of DSR as a form of harm and explores how such harms emerge in relation to the increasingly concerning phenomenon of ultra-processed food (UPF). 5/7

The third paper, by Catia Gregoratti & Sofie Tornhill, sheds a critical light on a private form of replenishment—a corporate responsibility project that aims to reduce and redistribute unpaid care and domestic work in the Philippines and Zimbabwe. 4/7

The second paper, by Jay Lingham and Melissa Johnston, expands the concept of depletion. To understand depletion through social reproduction in conflict, we must expand the concept to include the depletion of social reproduction. 3/7

The first paper takes a critical look at 'green microfinance' initiatives. Rather than being the end of the (climate) shock they are intended to respond to, micro-loans defer suffering and are often the catalyst for other often harmful coping strategies. 2/7
