“Being itself is relational. […] Our human agency and intentionality transforms the objects of culture into subjects, through the meaning we give to them and the uses we put them to.
[…]care : a constant attentiveness to the meaning and affect of our entanglement.
[…]politics : the hard, meaty detail of debate, decision-making, power relationships and status.”
-James Bridle, Ways of Being
“We had fed the heart on fantasies,
The heart’s grown brutal from the fare,
More substance in our enmities
Than in our love; oh, honey-bees
Come build in the empty house of the stare.”
–VI—The Stare’s Nest By My Window, W. B. Yeats.
Bernardo Arévalo, from the progressive Movimiento Semilla party, won Guatemala’s presidential election. (theguardian)
