Discovering that oil palm was unravelling dreams, stories and worlds... "a multispecies existential crisis" that called for more than advocacy as usual... The Shadow of The Palms is @Sophie_MH_Chao 's vital more-than-human offering to these entangled questions - launching now!

Grateful to be associated with your peak sync @tythily! 🥲 And here is the link to the beautiful rountable "Theory as reproduction" with @Anthrobeader, M Jolly, @benj_hegarty, @shiorishakuto & @CarlySchuster youtube.com/watch?v=lGxV0AGt…
Replying to @tythily
it felt like this thing @ShadowEcologies captures beautifully: "As we come into motion, we simultaneously forget ourselves and become more than ourselves. I do my best thinking in such spaces and feel part of an emerging, co-created, livable future..." muse.jhu.edu/article/711247

Stephanie Kane at #RAIConservation looking at how bird categories/species names fly through policies. Thinking with stone curlews, she asks, "who does the lexical maintenance work of tidying messy realities into forms ready for evidence based policy?"

It might be the middle of the night here in Sydney, but I'm feeling awake and excited to be at #RAIConservation listening to Darren Ranco sharing on #Rematriation and #Landback movements led by Wabanaki people!

Gave my 54th lecture for the year today. Final one for 2019. Reflecting on lots but, just for now, I'm letting myself be thrilled at these impromptu student messages. I wouldn't usually share this kind of thing, but... Kindness! It means so much to me that it came through :')
