I finished reading The Queer Art of Failure by Jack Halberstam this week. I read it because I have been thinking a lot about failure for my #HigherCalling project, which asks what work is and how we can do it well under violent conditions.
It's apparently a classic, but I had never read it so I thought I'd share some reflections in the spirit of #GenerousReading.

Sometimes #Freedom means #Resisting being #Boxed into the #PeckingOrder of those around us. #VictimBlaming us as being difficult for resisting is #Dismissive of our #FreeWill and #Presence.
