Register for this USF-funded online international workshop, 'Feminising urban struggles', on the 6th and 7th November 2023: urbanstudiesfoundation.org/events/feminis…

Pawsome job! This adorable little pup with a backpack loves riding a scooter after a ruff day.

Wrote up with Adam and Jon an academic version of the Manchester Offshored report into MCFC/Abu Dhabi's land deals in Manchester. May be of interest for thinking through the role states play in urban enclosure! onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.11…

lineup goes hard: Asa Roast @roastfkll.bsky.social's spatial history of the dungeon, Paolo b.'s media theorization, nicolasnova's monster manual update, Luigi Monteanni's goblin anthropology, Rebekah Rhodes's review of post-Bosch art, Carolina Fernández-Castrillo's analysis of co-creation economies

VeDPH 胡子哥 @[email protected]/bsky, sannuvola.threads.net the core concept is to use the megadungeons typical of role-playing games and their features – infrastructure, procedural topographic generation, layering, gameplay logics, and ecologies – as a model to represent the complexity of the entire digital media landscape

New year, new paper! Very excited my collaborative work with Xiaobo Su on the connections between state-led venture capital (VC) investments & the urban process of capital accumulation is now published in Dialogues in Human Geography (Dialogues in Human Geography)! 🧵👇 journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/20…

This new article by Järvinnen & Mik-Meyer on "gendered service work in academia" made me go through all stages of grief on a loop and I think EVERYONE in academic should read it 👇journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.117…

“I’ll expect you to feed me, bathe me, brush my hair, hold my hand, recognise me when I have ceased to recognise myself and be the last human touch I may feel before I die. But I do not think, at the same time, that you deserve a family life.”

Delighted to announce that our upcoming public speech in Shanghai with Asa Roast @roastfkll.bsky.social “Philosophers have hitherto only interpreted the world in various ways; the point is to change it.” It’s time to push ‘meta philosophy of urbanisation’ out of ivory tower.

hardly ever post here any more, going to try posting here instead...? bsky.app/profile/roastf…

Assata Shakur summarized it best

Trade unions should hold vocational and skill competitions in various forms to motivate #workers and unleash their creative potential so that they can fully play their role in all fields and all sectors of society. bit.ly/3YzGhfI
