    It has now been a week since we revealed our grievance studies project. I'm going to have a reflective thread on it & then I'd really like to focus on other things. Like the Battle of Ideas!

        This was @ConceptualJames project and he put inordinate amounts of work into it. He is our supercomputer. He sees the patterns and systems and holds it all in his head and makes it work. Peter was in on it from the start and he is responsible for much of the creative madness.

        I joined the project three months in and my job was at first just reading the papers looking for theoretical red flags - things that don't tally with current theory. Then I started suggesting appropriate theories. Then I wrote theoretical groundings. Then I took the lead on 2.

        In addition to his job of doing some of everything & directing the project strategically, James had to spend a lot of energy on reining in Peter's wicked imagination & humour and my obsessive attention to theoretical detail & making them cohere.

        If it had been left to Peter, we'd have had 20 delightfully funny & insane satires. If it had been left to me, we'd have had 20 deeply theoretical & turgid legitimate papers. James had to incorporate both into a goal-orientated strategy. He only threatened to murder us both twice

        I went deep into feminist epistemology and James into masculinity studies and Peter into fat studies. We suffered so you don't have to. Christlike is our sacrifice.

        It's ironic how so many missed the point of your experiment. Instead of provoking a battle of ideas, many of them whinged and cried and indulged in self-righteous outrage. Looking forward to your thread.
