- How dare you accuse the all-white, selected-through-purity of-bloodline, former-heads-of-a-colonial-empire family of being racist!?
- As a mark of respect, the revolutionary uprising of the proletariat will be postponed for the foreseeable future.
- Why Won't You Fucking Work? The Political Economy of Eduroam.
- It's Karl Marx's birthday today, and reflecting on where I would be without his work, I can only conclude that I would have been a more well-adjusted, normal human being, who wasn't obsessed with how fucked everything is.

- My piece in @TWAILReview TheorizingWhileBlack symposium is out. In which I seek to think through - in a materialist way - how issues of racialisation and how they play out in the context of the academy.
