really enjoying how the social construction of gender in wolf hall is so heavily interwoven with class, where all the other men at court are always acting as though and indeed openly saying that cromwell is not a man in the way they are men, because he is a blacksmith’s son who rose through the ranks instead of a nobleman born into his status. they don’t treat him like a woman — they still say insane shit about the inherent frailties of women to him like they expect him to laugh and commiserate — but he does end up occupying a sort of third-gender space in court that is closer to the position of a woman than the position of a man, in that everyone in the room is aware at all times that both cromwell and the women are all only there because they are owned by a noble man (the king or their fathers or their husbands). that is the only reason their presence is tolerated and they could be removed and silenced at any time if they lose the favor of the man who owns them.

and this third-gender space cromwell occupies is emphasized again and again by how for every scene where he’s let into a room with powerful men there’s a scene where he’s gossiping in a parlor with women, or conspiring in whispers in a corner with a woman, or being allowed into a pregnant woman’s chambers while she’s only wearing her shift. the women are just as keenly aware that cromwell is not a man like their king or fathers or husbands are men, so they bring him into their spaces and confidences in a way they wouldn’t with the other men. REALLY fun and delicious stuff.

I owe a lot of people a lot of things, but the people that treat me like I owe them my life are usually in my debt in ways they don't care to look at.

"you don't owe anyone anything" You are a tar pit. Speak for yourself. I personally owe the cafe employees my dishes put away and my friends a listening ear and small scared insects a cup and a gentle trip outside. Hyperindividualism is a rancid infection borne of capitalism and willfully misinterpreted therapyspeak and I will defy it by continuing to be kind regardless of whether or not it benefits me personally

i think the hottest look you can give someone after they commit acts of unspeakable violence is approval. like don't get me wrong if there's lust there too that's great, but staring at someone with gore dripping down their chin and coating their hands to the wrists with undisguised appraisal and admiration. maybe giving them a little nod as if to say 'well done'. THAT'S what says "yeah we're gonna fuck nasty later".

"South African entrepreneur Phumla Makhoba is on a mission to solve the “global south housing crisis.” And she’s doing it by using clothing waste.

Her invention, Texiboard, is a material that combines fibers found in textile waste with lime cement to create a durable, affordable, and circular building material.

The result is a textured, white square, almost tile-like, that is created with recycled materials — not emission-generating wood or concrete.

“It can be used to make furniture, flooring, walls, or even your entire home,” Makhoba said in a video for social media account We Got Earth.

The first iterations of the Texiboard included colorful cotton threads that were compressed together, with multiple attempts to remove cracks and seams and perfect the ratios of size, shape, and material mass.

With her design firm, Studio People, Makhoba has been working since 2022 to perfect the TexiBoard. 

Makhoba has since created a solid panel, with shredded textile fiber and natural lime cement fully cured. Finally, it can be formed into a full sheet of building material.

Once realized, the Texiboard will confront the estimated 92 million tons of clothing waste generated around the globe each year. But it will also provide safe and stable housing that Makhoba says only 20% of South Africans can afford.

“Growing up, I saw two worlds: one with polished buildings, and one built from scrap,” she said in a video. “I always wondered, why do some people get homes that last and others get homes that leak?”

Now, the Texiboard design is available as an open-source resource, and Makhoba and her team host in-person workshops for locals living in shacks to learn how to build their own supportive and sustainable housing.

“Just having a roof isn’t enough,” Makhoba said. “A real home should protect you from the weather, work for your daily life, and not fall apart in five years.”

Her approach includes a full theory of change. Right now, Studio People is in the input process, building partnerships and funding to scale their operation. From there, they hope to develop a fully sustainable supply chain to manufacture and sell Texiboards and help build affordable housing for people in need.

Once that dream is realized, Makhoba outlines the tangible output of this work: Economically inclusive waste management, circular building materials, green jobs, and a sustainable housing and manufacturing market.

“Informal settlements can be transformed when we all work together,” she shares on the Studio People website. “Texiboard is the seed of innovation that will create updated trade jobs in the innovative building industry.”

Although the Texiboard is still being completely perfected, the goal is to provide a weather-proof, cost-effective, and circular way to house people by democratizing the act of building.

“Our goal is to create an egalitarian and sustainable urban environment, helping shack dwellers and youth out of poverty,” Studio People shared on LinkedIn.

“We empower the underdog, including people and businesses, to co-create solutions in our fight against the housing crisis, unsustainable building materials, and unemployment — one board at a time.”"

You know, if people just acted like society was falling apart and the world was ending (which it is), if people really acted like that was the case, we might be able to save it.
