Below is an abstract from the journal "Qualitative Inquiry" written by the lead author Susan Nordstrom. Also, as coauthors, are her two cats: Amelie and Coonan. I thought this was a joke, but it isn't. The long and short of it is that this author had a cat and it had to be put down, and this was devastating to the author. But what a bunch of embarrassing word-salad gibberish.


Guilty of Loving You: A Multispecies Narrative

Susan Naomi Nordstrom, Amelie Nordstrom, Coonan Nordstrom


Abstract
We recognized the urgency of our shared multispecies inquiry, with the recent death of one of the cats, Amelie. In the intense singularity of death, we became very aware of how we tune and tend together—everyday practices in which humans (themselves animals) and animals live and perceive together—and how these practices shape our everyday lives. These practices are acts of multispecies survival in which we learn how to live and die together. We weave our multispecies living–dying together with the theories of Haraway and Rautio. Writing together as we disrupt the categories between humans and animals, human-centered philosophical concepts, and human-centered narrative inquiry. In so doing, we offer an evocative multispecies narrative that tells a different story, a becoming with multiple species in naturecultures.

Did you ever have a teacher at school who was dead weird?
Well the one who taught me Chemistry about 7 years ago in year 11 was today on national news for raping a blindfolded girl and filming it.
He was a creep who none of the girls in my class liked, but never would have thought he'd do such horrible things.

Really odd seeing that pop up on the news.

My lad got his mountain bike robbed off him on the Loop Line in Halewood this afternoon by two creatures on a moped with balaclavas on.

It's a Bergamont Roxter 4.0 if anyone gets offered it.

There's a reward.
