Leanne Betasamosake Simpson : Theory of Water - Tin House What would it mean for our writing, thinking, and living if we looked to land as pedagogy, or if we thought of theory as something embodied and kinetic? In Theory of Water Leanne Betasamosake Simpson ...

And if I may be so bold as to recommend some non-fiction though thatโ€™s not what you asked for, I highly recommend Theory of Water. If you donโ€™t read it, I think this podcast discussing the book is well worth a listen

As David Graeber said (paraphrased) & Birmingham proves: if nurses, mechanics, garbage collectors vanish, the effects will be catastrophic; without teachers, dock-workers, science-fiction writers we'd be lessened; without private equity CEOs, lobbyists, telemarketers & bailiffs things would improve.

I think most of who have worked in writing or entertainment know that piracy is a fact of life, and has been for a long time now.

But thereโ€™s a difference between a broke student downloading a PDF of your book, and a multibillion dollar company stealing your work for its own bullshit purposes.

"It used to be 'the economy' 
was the way we provide 
people with food, shelter 
and other necessities to 
keep them alive. Now we're 
all supposed to die for the 
sake of the economy. What 
is this thing they're talking 
about. Is it just code for rich 
people, Class power, or what?"

It is always worth knowing what the powerful mean when they use terms like "the economy."
