Honestly the whole of my PhD has been worth it to discover the UN officials’ glee when they discovered that, for a couple of hours, the Katangan ministry of the interior was fucked over by a massive swarm of bees. Every archive I’ve seen mentions the Bee Incident at least once.

The idea that someone cannot make autonomous decisions about their own life below the age of 25 is a direct threat to the autonomy of all young people. What separates gender from access to abortion or the right to vote? This is a very dangerous and harmful proposal.

i'm so excited about the new chapter i'm writing for my book on peacekeeping. i decided to pull my timeline forward and look at the late 1940s. it adds so much to the start of the narrative & i wish it had been part of the thesis. ho hum, it's here now !!!
