I am on vacation from work until the week after Thanksgiving. And I’m only working one five day week before the end of the year. Hurray for accumulated vacation days!
I’m not planning on doing a whole lot of work on my break. The links post will also be on vacation, but I am planning on getting some work done on an essay that I’m hoping to publish in the next couple of weeks. I also have some personal projects I’m planning on working on, including some painting and cataloging my TBR (remember me when I’m gone). Gotta get all my personal project ducks in a row because I’m pretty sure that the workload I’ve been dealing with the last few months is only the beginning.
I’ll also be taking a break from most social media, with the exception of the wandering.shop Mastodon instance, which is lovely and slow and reminds me of Twitter in the Before Times.
- On eBay, a Fantastical, Earnest World of Haunted Dolls
- The Unforgiving Minute: “Because you made everything precious in our lives conditional on not making a fuss.”
- To The Men Who Are Not Responsible For My Problem
- Sexual Assault: We Might Have to Throw The Whole Hollywood Away
- I Tried to Break the Louis C.K. Story and It Nearly Killed My Career
- Louis CK, Roy Moore and a glimpse into how #MeToo might end
- A 13-Year-Old Girl Is Not “All Grown Up” – Mara Wilson on the Sexualization of Child Actresses and Millie Bobby Brown I cannot believe we are having to have this conversation.
- How Systemic Racism Fueled Jeffrey Dahmer’s Killing Spree
- First I read this: Something is wrong on the internet and then I listened to this: We’re building a dystopia just to make people click on ads and I’m starting to think that Twitter, Facebook, and Google have broken the internet.
- A Net Before the Web
- New Bio of Sabina Spielrein: Raped By Carl Jung, Then Murdered by the Nazis And erased by her profession:
Spielrein’s story is a case history of pathological patriarchy, anti-Semitism, Stalinism, Nazism, and genocide. It is also the story of an incredible pioneering thinker whose ideas were freely borrowed by the Great Men of Psychoanalysis whose followers conspired in defaming and demonizing Spielrein’s character and all traces of her subsequent 30-year history of intellectual and clinical work.
- Vivian Shaw Answers Seven Questions I never got around to writing a review of Strange Practice, but I utterly adored it and want for there to be more books in this series; despite some gory bits, the setting and characters are simply wonderful.
