Women in Love Chapter I SISTERS Ursula and Gudrun Brangwen sat one morning in the window-bay of their father’s house in Beldover, working and talking. Ursula was stitching a piece of brightly- coloured embroidery, and Gudrun was drawing upon a board which she held on her knee. They were mostly silent, talking as their thoughts strayed through their minds. ’Ursula,’ said Gudrun, ‘don’t you REALLY WANT to get married?’ Ursula laid her embroidery in her lap and looked up. Her face was calm and considerate. ’I don’t know,’ she replied. ‘It depends how you mean.’ Gudrun was slightly taken aback. She watched her sister for some moments. ’Well,’ she said, ironically, ‘it usually means one thing! But don’t you think anyhow, you’d be—’ she darkened slightly—’in a better position than you are in now.’ A shadow came over Ursula’s face. ’I might,’ she said. ‘But I’m not sure.’ Again Gudrun paused, slightly irritated. She wanted to be quite definite. 2 of 903 Women in Love ’You don’t think one needs the EXPERIENCE of having been married?’ she asked. ’Do you think it need BE an experience?’ replied Ursula. ’Bound to be, in some way or other,’ said Gudrun, coolly. ‘Possibly undesirable, but bound to be an experience of some sort.’ ’Not really,’ said Ursula.

  • By David Rothfuss Fireworks and Sex! Is a New
    ABSTRACT FIREWORKS AND SEX! by David Rothfuss Fireworks and Sex! is a new religion I’m launching so I can get rich without paying taxes. The religious document that follows, which you’re probably not even allowed to read on account of copyright restrictions, is pretty standard as religious documents go, providing you, the religious consumer, with 205 pages of morally ambiguous poems, fables and doodles to base your life upon. It is by far the most American religion out there, and a sure-fire path to a shinier existence, with the average follower experiencing 74% more happiness, 93% more freedom, and 87% more American Dream than those in other religions. If you were allowed to read it, which you’re not, it would provide you with an inside track to God and eternal salvation.

  • Postcolonial Assembly Protocols for Unnamed Automation Projects
    Postcolonial Assembly Protocols for Unnamed Automation Projects Hemangini Gupta Middlebury College [email protected] Abstract This creative contribution offers a sardonic manual to navigate the exuberant world of the startup economy in Bangalore, India, once known as a backend site of technological labor. As Bangalore fashions itself to become a “new” StartUp City, this manual continually tacks between the material sites and discourses of these seemingly new practices to bring into focus the persistent and revised forms of inequality that undergird them. Adopting the form of annotated keywords allows the manual to recast the circulating buzzwords of startup capitalism within their larger social and cultural histories. Each index entry expands a site of ethnographic investigation and cultural critique to allow the reader to explore the manual across registers: as a sardonic text, as a movement between words and their histories, and as an introduction to academic work that contextualizes technological experimentation. Since the 1980s, the south Indian city of Bangalore has been developed by local state governments as a site for outsourced technology work. By the time I arrived in Bangalore to conduct ethnographic fieldwork between 2012 and 2014, entrepreneurs and technologists were uncoupling themselves from the tag of “outsourced labor” to fashion a new “Start Up City.” State and private funding are channeled into the entrepreneurial economy, galvanized by the national government’s emphasis on a “Make in India” policy. Bangalore is now imagined as an entrepreneurial ecosystem: a hub for technological innovation with Gupta, Hemangini (2020).

Trade the price of the drinks and your hourly rate for hours of boring hoop-jumping in cash? Oh, thou horrible criminals! Disgusting! I would LOVE to do a study of all the men in maximum security, with just one question: In the 24 hours prior to committing the offence that got you jailed, had you either had satisfactory sex or been in a position to lawfully get some if you'd wanted? And I'm willing to lay heavy odds that there would be a significant difference between their average degree of frustration and that of a similar group of non- serious offenders. We're all real keen to allow PMS as a defence or mitigation for anything up to and including murder, and yet no-one wants to admit that being on testosterone can make you want to hump any leg in sight, or thump the hells out of the first thing that pushes your buttons.

  • Episode 116 How to Be Hopeful with Bernadette Russell
    Episode 116 How to be hopeful with Bernadette Russell Zoe Blaskey: Hi, everyone, and welcome to another episode of the Motherkind Podcast with me, your host, Zoe Blaskey, where each week I chat about all things motherhood and well-being. My mission with this podcast is to help you reconnect to you—to feel happier, more joyful, calmer and a little bit kinder to yourself. Because I think life as a mum in this hectic modern world is hard enough as it is. I believe becoming the happiest, most alive version of ourselves is the most important and inspiring thing we can do for our children. Hi everyone and welcome to this episode of the Motherkind Podcast. I hope you are really well. This week, today, we are going to be chatting about all things hope and kindness. How beautiful is that? And don't we need a lot of that at the moment? I know that I need constant daily reminders and practices to keep me connected—compassion for myself, compassion for others and hope. And Bernadette Russell is my guest, she is an expert on hope and kindness. She's written a Little Book of Kindness, a Little Book of Wonder and her new book, which is called How to be Hopeful, which is a celebration of the power of hope. So in this conversation, we talked about kindness about how one small incident totally changed the trajectory of her life. And we really deep dive into hope, and how actually Bernadette, very wisely says that hope is daring, and it is daring to hope because we might feel that if we don't get what we hope for, we'll be disappointed.
