That was a wild ride, but overall I’d say I’m positively impressed by the conference. There is so much to play for right now, and how the populist left in the UK takes shape in these next few months will be incredibly important. Now for the 5 hrs home via rail replacement (pls nationalise railways!)

Thanks! I’ve now gone down the rabbit hole of self-pub vs informal print run, but will update once I have a plan

Thanks to @amkanngieser.bsky.social who put me on to it

It’s an astute and thought-provoking piece, well worth reading. I do think it slips too easily into a set of rather tired dichotomies, even straw figures. Yet I can catch myself making the kinds of appeasing moves Tenorio critiques and I appreciate the provocation to question that impulse

Placing fieldwork alongside examples of visual and performative practice, the chapter reflects on the significance and future direction of queer-trans ecologies in critical geographical enquiry.

Doing fieldwork while queer and trans can be difficult, vulnerable, and uncertain work. Together, we consider the processes through which we came to understand both queer-transness and ecological frameworks as integral to the critical geographical projects we were developing 🧵

The chapter offers an entry point to trans geographies and their wider implications, suitable for both students and established geographers. It's a shortened and re-contextualised version of my argument on vulnerability and radical femme politics (open access here: doi.org/10.1111/tran.12358)
