Today I am finding inspiration in Gibson-Graham on the question of scale: "Western Enlightenment thought tempts us to attach meaning to otherwise 'empty' scales of analysis and the global comes out a winner again"
No more payphones in Athens. Remnants of another era, they are now in the process of being removed. Perhaps it was about time, given that they have been abandoned and are no longer in use anyway
Best news of the day: I am now supervising my first BA thesis!
