Now in @aeonmag, my attempt to reckon with the complicated legacy of Walter Mignolo and his brand of decoloniality.

I wrote about China Miéville’s The Rouse for Jacobin. I liked it a lot and have things to say.
“The Rouse” follows a secret British effort to weaponize ghosts amid the Cold War and decolonization.
A supernatural spy thriller, a Marxist meditation on history, and a stylistic triumph, China Miéville’s novel is a masterwork two decades in the making. jacobin.com/2026/10/china-mi…
la teoría literaria no muerde chicos
A todo esto, ¿cuál es el problema de que una obra esté escrita con IA? Imagino que además habrá un trabajo de pulido y edición del autor, una intención, una guía, etc. No deja de ser un artista trabajando sobre otra materialidad. No hay mucha diferencia entre esto y la fotografía, o al premio a una banana pegada en la pared.
Mignolo? Full of shit? No way! aeon.co/essays/who-is-walter…
Didn’t expect Mignolo to respond to my piece! Wish he actually engaged with the argument tho instead of just repeating his general critique of Marxism & making observations about where I’m based (making me “euro-centred”?). He’s just reinforcing my point!

Spent a few weeks earlier this year roaming a Hollywood almost entirely reoriented around the production of “microdramas,” which are kind of like soap operas except they’re short and completely demented and optimized for your phone. Started as one kind of sad story and ended as another, differently sad kind of story. You can read it now in @NYTmag nytimes.com/2026/10/06/magaz…

Bueno, ahora las librerías independientes tenemos un lugar para que puedan buscar libros (fuera de ML).
Fácil, ponen el libro y te dice en qué librerías está y te direcciona a la tienda de cada una. No sé, quizás les sirve y Goliat no era taaaan grande :)
