  "textContent": "Hi everyone,\n\nI've been knocked off my feet by a nasty bug this past week, and, because I'm pregnant, trying to ride it out the old-school way with lots of ginger, lemon, garlic and anything else non-pharmaceutical I can get my hands on (any tips welcome!) On top of that, the deadline for the final draft of my book is the close of today! So in lieu of a written newsletter here's a talk I gave a few weeks ago at the Amsterdam Complexity School for Climate Change.\n\nRegular readers will notice a few common themes in this talk: violence; the importance of our bodies; the notion of a reproductive economy; freedom. In many ways, this talk is a bit of a sneak peek at my forthcoming book!\n\nI hope you all enjoy it! Please let me know in the comments what you think.\n\nI also want to directly thank the members who took out annual subscriptions after my last call for support. It is a huge relief to feel that these emails reach you, and I am very grateful to be in community with you all.\n\nThank you for being here,\nRachel\n\n__Planet: Critical investigates why the world is in crisis.
