Over at @negationmag.com I went long on Everyday Resistance, Revolution, and the Rarity of Politics. Along the way I get some help from Marx, Lefebvre, Scott, Certeau, Ranciere, Badiou and of course the GOAT, Sylvain Lazarus. www.negationmag.com/articles/mar...

Hello to our new followers! We're sorry for being woefully absent over here on Bluesky; we'll be sharing our work more regularly going forward. In the meantime, here is a collection of things we've released since we've last posted here:

CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS: DOSSIER ON ORGANIZATIONAL CULTURE We are preparing a dossier, and we are looking for writing on organizational culture, or the relationship between culture and organization. Send us your pitches here: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

I know that this is late, but I am asking for good "sunken place" memes. Things that use the concept to discuss politics.

We must not waver in our support for the Palestinian people. Here are some relief funds helping the victims of the ongoing Zionist atrocities in Gaza: secure.everyaction.com/b00t33wD-EOV... pcrf1.app.neoncrm.com/forms/gaza-r... www.palestinercs.org/en/Donation www.map.org.uk/donate/donat...

Been chatting about multitude (the concept and the book) for months at this point. Finally got the chance to solidify some thoughts in writing. It's turned out okay thanks to the Herculean efforts of the other editors. Give it a read if you're interested in important class-related discussions.
