New instance, new intro! I'm a historian of science, speaker, and a monster consultant. My latest book is HUMANS: A MONSTROUS HISTORY, just out from the University of California Press as a general audience title.
I also wrote the award-winning RENAISSANCE ETHNOGRAPHY AND THE INVENTION OF THE HUMAN: New Worlds, Maps and Monsters (Cambridge UP).
Happy Halloween! A thread of my essays follows....

finished watching The X Files
Ah, simpler times, when the world's demise was orchestrated by competent people through clever conspiracies.
Wait, this is fiction, it was always a bunch of ridiculous, very public bros, concerned only with making the line go up. It was in plain sight all along.
QUEER NIHILISM
I have written a new essay (an hour of your time) which discusses "queer nihilism" or an anti-politics (that is, something against the politics of this world) of wild desire.
It is from a work in progress which is focusing on "the wild" as an alternative to our civilisations of death and oppression, a theorisation of anarchy.
It will interest those who have an interest in an alternative politics - and an alternative to politics - queer theory, nihilism, anarchism and all anti-civilisationalists.
