This is what ecocide looks like.

Prometheus Rex

Prometheus in tears, bound AND unbound

Prometheus abyss / Promethean hyper-shame / Promethean shamelessness

Det er lige så naturligt at “producere” 25.000 svin hver dag som det er for mennesker at trække vejret, lige så naturligt at der dør 9 millioner pattegrise om året som det er at trække vejret, lige så naturligt at dræbe natur og danske fjorde som det er trække vejret - jeg holder mit fra nu af

Hatten af! At sammenligne en samfundsskabt, kapitalistisk, naturfjendtlig dødsmaskine (også kendt som dansk landbrug) med mennesker der trækker vejret og udånder CO2 er alligevel noget

New article in Global Studies Quarterly - the first academic piece developing my “materialized science fiction” framework. Thiel, Musk, and Andreessen don’t just love SF; they’re turning it into a blueprint for sovereignty. Fully open access: academic.oup.com/isagsq/artic...

Lige tids nok til at ramme alle landets konfirmationsgaveborde

It will be out in April 2027 !

You will! Hopefully it will be translated into English, German etc and sell millions of copies around the world 🌍 💰 📕

Think Greta Thunberg's The Climate Book, Bini Adamczak's Communism for Kids, Varoufakis's Talking to My Daughter About the Economy, Malm's How to Blow up a Pipeline, The Three Investigators, Olsen Banden, Bugonia etc etc etc

Thrilled (and a bit surprised) to have just signed a contract with Forlaget Grønningen 1 for a new Danish climate book for readers aged ≈ 11–16. Part non-fiction (letters), part fiction (a crime story). I can’t share the title or details yet, but it will be wild & cute & involve a kidnapping!

What is, in the eyes of the economist, the Milky Way if not "a pile of material that was provided without any clear motive, which means that its existence can in a sense only be explained on account of some cosmic incompetence and lack of business acumen.” (Günther Anders)

Back to the drawing board

Electro-Capitalism Ours is the age of transition: from fossil capital to electricity capital. The future that emerges will be determined by the fierce struggles of the present.

"In the battle between fossil and electricity capital, there are good reasons to think the latter will win in the long run. Of course, in the long run, as JM Keynes said, we are all dead."

We're recruiting 2 PhD candidates in human geography here in Uppsala, one position focused on urban/housing issues and one in political ecology.

Please spread the word/repost etc. Being a PhD student in Sweden is a good gig.

I wanna know the answer!
