Published six books, head of gender studies for four years, general editor at TSQ, numerous successful supervisions and turned down for promotion to associate professor for seventh time while colleagues with far less are promoted without difficulty. I am even supported by head of school and dean.

No exit strategy under conditions that are increasingly intolerable though preferable to those one is increasingly vulnerable to and without agency to affect. Read either in personal or political terms, the question of what is to be done turns increasingly to the question of how do you cope.

Finished reading this. I don’t see how it’s β€˜reinvented’ volume 3. Better described as a companion piece to vol. 3. Approached accordingly and it doesn’t disappoint

Here's a staggering fact. So staggering that I can't conceive of how it's possible. But according to the BBC, if you stretched out all the mycelium (the root-like structure of fungi) on earth, it would span half the width of the Milky Way Galaxy which is 100,000 light years across.
