I love @oxfam and all who sail in her. But this is awful. For every "Maria" there are many others too scared to broach this tense subject.
Total solidarity with trans people. But society needs to be allowed to think this one thru with care and compassion. twitter.com/unherd/status/…

1/ The BBC really need to start doing due diligence on activist stories before reporting.
They claim that 100 Oxford academics signed a letter claiming that de-platforming is not a free speech issue.
No link to the letter, which made me suspicious.

I'm finally reading this and it is brilliant! I feel like an undergrad again as I'm taking so many notes. The book is historically grounded, based on deep contemporary fieldwork, and contains far-reaching arguments. Just one of them: "there are no inevitable climate futures".

Most irritating academic habit: authors inserting Latin phrases pointlessly in writing: pari passu, mutis mutandis.
I will also start inserting Punjabi phrases in my papers now.

"What we eventually run up against are the forces of humourlessness, and let me assure you that the humourless as a bunch don't just not know what's funny, they don't know what's serious. They have no common sense, either, and shouldn't be trusted with anything."
