>>7289778This is the sign you've been waiting for, Nick. No more fucking around - you put down those news articles, you leave your tablet on the table next to you, you get your bony ass to the study room and start doing some actual work NOW. No excuses, Nick. You're not old enough to retire yet, you whingebag, and there are better, more qualified sinologists out there conducting better, more rigorous geographies of the country - focus on the politics and philosophy, mate, it's what you're good at. Do. Your. Job. You're not a law unto yourself, mate. Everbody's got a job to do, everybody's got to work. Head down, bum up, this instant! You haven't written anything about Australia yet, for example, or really, the growth of any nations that aren't China - are Australia and New Zealand as fucked as you claim the rest of the West is? What's going to happen to Africa? There's a workforce there; there's money there. We want your opinion, Nick. We want a comprehensive NRx/cyberfeminist framework we can run our ideas through, not necessarily to agree but just to be that little bit surer we've considered every possible one of the intelligent counter-arguments, because you are, Nick - you're intelligent. You've got a gift, and you're fucking wasting it, Nick, tweeting memes about the immigration crisis all goddamn day. Get your ass to the study room NOW!
