Love that feeling when my advisor tells me to read a bunch of Marxist theory and then instead I find something by David Graeber that explains it perfectly
Follow
like, oh THAT's structural Marxism, OK thanks
@ingrid I was GIS and data-smart but back then I was taught to not see those as meaningful skills
@ingrid I really should read/listen more to Graeber. Is it him or Fisher who's the doomer though?
@pettter Fisher is much more doomy; Graeber really approached life as a carnival most of the time
@ingrid That just pushed him further up the list, then, thanks :)
@ingrid i misread that as "[city of] Marxism, Oklahoma", thanks
@ranjit where the spectre comes haunting down the plain
@ingrid I felt like a dumbass through my geog MA because I had an exceptionally poor grasp of theory in a sea of smarties—it turns out accessible pubs and ereaders are what my visually impaired ass needed (and distance from abusive faculty members who caused me to question all my instincts)
