  3. Three books I'm reading /revisiting while working on new novel. Always find something new in The Spectralities Reader because how I think of hauntings is always changing. Bachelard's Poetics of Space is new to me and despite at times bombastic has a lot of interesting ideas. 1/2

    "...Ao3 has already been lost for 3 years. The only things left is this piece of paper and my (Weibo) ID... I often think of the 'big hand' that crushed all of this, about the growing ideological & cultural constraints - we will continue to lose so much more." Source: TG/ Weibo

    A most bittersweet thing is seeing old HK protest graffiti get painted over. But you can always see the words seared into our city underneath the whitewash. Proof our collective dreaming wasn't just a dream. "Ideas are bulletproof", and they refuse to fade away. Source: TG

    Lol. Your Codep*nk's version of 'no war' was Ukraine laying down arms and letting Russia take it. You deserve to be vilified.

    just had a long phone call with a friend in st petersburg - she narrowly escaped being arrested at a protest today and i think it’s worth remembering how scared many russians are, both of being arrested for resisting the war and that they or their relatives might be sent to fight

    Pravda Brewery, based in Lviv, Ukraine, has suspended its beer brewing operations and is now making Molotov cocktails for residents to use against invading Russian forces. The labels on the bottles say “Putin is a dickhead.”

    It's been one year. Remember the 47 pro-democracy activists whose national security law trial has still barely begun, the majority of whom have been languishing behind bars for 365 days now.

    There was a whiff of this during 2019 when some coverage was like ‘how can it happen to a rich international city like HK’. But the West also dragged their feet on our asylum seekers and migrants, so maybe it’s not the ‘civilised’ bit that matters to some. 🙃
