My 2023 Reading List

Here's the books and articles that I read in 2023 (a large part of which was a push to finish my dissertation). I thought it might also be useful to others to see what my workload looks like as a 7th year grad student in a PhD. program, especially since I'm unmedicated with severe ADHD. This is what I'm able to get done while fighting through that. I bring this up because I know that it can seem fucking impossible, most notably when we see our neurotypical colleagues churning through incredible amounts of research. A final note: two of the books I'm including in here are books that I started reading in 2022 (Kagan and Stock). Also, note that many of these are re-reads; I've marked these with an Asterisk, and a couple of the books I read around 90%, but dropped a couple chapters that weren't relevant for my projects. These are marked with two asterisks. Be aware that my citations here are of a pretty rough and ready style. Philosophy has weird disciplinary standards (read, almost every journal is different), so I just have a "here's what you need to know to find it" style here. CW: I work on some dark things involving death, suicide, sexual assault, sex, race, and trans rights, including actively fighting trans-exclusive theorists, so there's a lot of possibly triggering things in here.

WHY DOES IBS AS A DIAGNOSIS EXIST?

So, if it doesn’t make any sense, why does it still exist and why do a whole bunch of smart people still use it everyday? Well, the simple answer is: we gravitate towards labels to reduce perceived uncertainty and fear. Translation: it feels less scary to be told you have IBS (along with 10% of the population) rather than “we’re not sure what is wrong with you”. As the man credited with creating the IBS label, Walter C. Alvarez, said in 1947: “The great thing in handling these persons is not to reinforce their fear that there is something seriously wrong with the colon” (4). A label can also allow patients to feel their condition is understandable, that there is research on it and that they are part of a community. It means a person suffering with IBS is not alone or unique, but rather has a condition that others have been able to manage. IBS has historically been known as a diagnosis of exclusion (3). That is, “we haven’t been able to find a specific cause for your symptoms, sorry”. However, because the unknown element of this diagnosis provided little comfort to many sufferers, attempts have recently been made to make the term a ‘positive diagnosis’. That is, a single condition diagnosed with the Rome IV criteria, rather than the ‘wastebasket’ diagnosis of unknown cause/s. But while a label might make this group of symptoms easier to talk about and provide comfort to sufferers in the short term, it actually does little to empower an individual to find a long-term solution to their symptoms. And I am here to tell you, it is VERY likely that there is a solution.

Something I Find Fascinating About Nature

I think one of the most amazing things I know about nature is how adaptable it is. A few weeks ago, I had to read the paper “Biodiversity redistribution under climate change: Impacts on ecosystems and human well-being” for BIOL 3130. This paper discussed how as a response to climate change, plant and animal species tend to redistribute across latitudes, deeper into the ocean, and to higher altitudes, and how these shifts affect human populations (Pecl et al., 2017). I think it is amazing how nature can respond to environmental pressures, which helps prevent the entire ecosystem from collapsing when small changes occur. Redistribution also symbolizes a need for humans to make a change in their actions. If species need to keep shifting ranges to survive, eventually species will reach a point where there is nowhere else to go and will go extinct. As well, the fact that shifting range to a more suitable environment is even possible fascinates me. I cannot explain exactly why, but the fact that it is possible amazes me.

While I find this concept fascinating, it is also a double-edged sword and can act as a barrier to governments introducing policies to protect the environment.

As our textbook mentions, climate change is a threat to communities, food production, and safety, and decision-makers need to understand the effects on the environment (Beck et al., 2018). As part of my program, I am doing a minor in criminal justice and public policy and a minor in biology, so I have experience learning about both the science and the policy end of climate change. From my perspective, and from what I have learned, part of the challenge with introducing policies to limit carbon emissions and protect the environment is a lack of solid evidence of the harms of climate change preventing decision-makers from doing anything. The adaptability of nature, as demonstrated through climate-change-driven redistribution is an example of why there is not enough concrete evidence to push decision-makers. Since species shift ranges, they have managed to avoid mass extinctions, at least at this point in time. As such, policymakers may not see a reason to introduce potentially controversial policies.

On a more philosophical level, the adaptability of nature is inspiring. If something like a plant or a tree species can move when things in its natural habitat are no longer suitable, so can I. If I am not happy with where I am in life, I can make a change. It might take time but if I cannot thrive and grow in one place, I can shift myself to a new place, whether that be physically moving or just a mental shift. The strength and adaptability of nature inspire me to make a change if I am unable to thrive where I am.

Before reading the article for BIOL 3130, I had no idea that range shifts were a way for species to respond to climate change. Were you aware of this before? As well, is there any other example of plasticity in nature that you find fascinating?

À la une : Les grands défis économiques : l'urgence du long terme / Olivier Blanchard et Jean Tirole

Cote de rangement : HC 59 .3 B 265591 / Domaine : Economie

"Cet ouvrage présente et explique les principales conclusions du Rapport Blanchard-Tirole. En 2020, le président Emmanuel Macron proposait en effet aux auteurs de constituer une commission indépendante pour explorer les grands défis à venir. Le travail de cette commission internationale de vingt- quatre économistes aboutit à un rapport portant sur trois défis structurels pour l'économie mondiale : le changement climatique, les inégalités et l'évolution démographique. Ces trois défis sont véritablement existentiels car si nous ne les relevons pas, nous mettons en péril l'avenir de nos sociétés. Et pourtant, les gouvernements ne cessent de repousser l'heure des décisions. La question est donc simple : comment faire adopter des solutions nécessaires mais coûteuses et sans retombées positives immédiates ? Il faut s'efforcer de dépasser la stricte rationalité économique : pour chacun de ces défis, la réponse doit consister en un ensemble de réformes complémentaires, qui prennent en compte les perceptions et, surtout, les multiples dimensions de la question. Il est impératif que nos politiques reflètent enfin l'urgence du long terme." - Quatrième de couverture

Twenty-Eight Of The Gang

Some obnoxious surnames and more #Victorian #slang

Our language has lost some marvellous words along the way. Mawwormy was an adjective used to describe someone being picky or the act of fault finding. It owed its origin to a character in Isaac Bickerstaffe’s play of 1769, The Hypocrite. Perhaps being mawwormy is to call a dog that is reluctant to fight a meater, one that only bites into meat. Advertising has long made its mark in popular…

Anna Cora Mowatt and Pauline at the Marylebone

Playhouses scheduled lavish extravaganzas to tempt patrons and out-of-town visitors. “The Lady of Lyons” was staged at the Marylebone Theatre in London on number of dates before and after the Easter Holidays in the spring of 1849 as part of a calendar packed with special events, including the…

“A strange case of Mr Foster”

Do you still remember the "Hunter Foster is 20 years old" meme? The one where we couldn’t believe he was almost fourty in Frankenstein?

Yesterday my dearest friend @the-gay-sailor pointed it out once again:

She was right! After a quick Google search I noticed a strange pattern:

It seems as if Mr Foster had the exact same face with little to none signs of aging. He has looked the same in early Broadway roles as he looks now, in a few months old interviews.

Which had led me to an intriguing conclusion:

This seems as an only reasonable explanation.

Mr Foster’s doesn’t age.

He is a VAMPIRE.

So I decided to quickly sketch him as one. He is wearing Frankenstein costume (costumes in that musical were ugly and I can give you an essay on why I think that if you wanted) and a cape, because he can and will wear one.

Another possibility is that instead of feeding on human’s blood at night he goes by his fans’ windows to read them Frankenstein as a bedtime story in his e x c e e d i n g l y p e r f e c t voice.

But there is a problem. If he is a vampire, what would his Frankenstein co-stars think of this? Are they monsters themselves?!

My sweetest friend is right once again and I stand by her theory.

Mr Blanchard is secretly C'thulu.

(Please, this post is meant to be a joke and is not intended to be taken seriously. Sailor wrote more and funnier theories surrounding this idea but Tumblr couldn’t let me post more screenshots, what is lame, because she is genuinly funny person.

If you are Mr Foster or Mr Blanchard, we are truly sorry for what you have just witnessed. But if you two are reading then please, make a Frankenstein audiobook, we would appreciate that :).

Thank you everyone for your attention.)

Blanchard has also been seeking the advice of actresses older than she, Fishel and Room star Brie Larson among them, specifically when the current political mood really gets to her. “These women are the ones who are protecting me,” she says, preparing to head to a friend’s house. They might see it differently—that Blanchard is doing just fine on her own. Fishel even looks up to her younger peer. “I just keep reminding Rowan that everything she has inside of her, she can put out to the world,” she says. “And that’s going to change the world.”

Mary Bell

The Tyneside Strangler

TW: child death, sexual abuse, genital mutilation

•

Hello! So I’m back with another horrible story because people keep asking for them.

SO HERE WE GO

This is the story of Mary Bell, who is one of only a handful of the youngest murderers.. EVER.

Mary Bell was born to a 16 year old prostitute named Betty in Newcastle upon Tyne, England in May of 1957. (Yeah, this didn’t happen that long ago. Horrifying.)

Now, no one is entirely sure who Mary’s father is, but Betty made it very clear she wanted nothing to do with Mary from the very beginning, telling doctors, “Get that thing away from me.”

And the best thing the doctors could come up with was to continue to let Mary live with her mother.

Perfect. What could go wrong?

Well, a lot.

Things got way worse. Betty was away a lot in Glasgow for her “business trips”. When she wasn’t away, she subjected Mary to physical and mental abuse.

Betty’s sister testified that she once saw Betty try to give Mary away to a local woman who was unsuccessful in her adoption journey.

Betty’s sister also noted that Mary was very “accident prone”; i.e. “falling” down the stairs and “accidentally” overdosing sleeping pills.

After Mary’s “fall”, it was reported that Mary suffered horrible brain damage in her pre-frontal cortex, the part of the brain that deals with decision-making and voluntary movements.

(Richard Ramirez, John Wayne Gacy, Fred West, David Berkowitz, Ed Gein, Albert Fish, and several other serial killers also suffered brain injuries as they were growing up.)

(I want to mention here there is a bit of a debate amongst experts whether to Betty wanted to get rid of Mary because she wasn’t fit to be a mother OR Betty had Munchausen by Proxy, which should all know is my favorite mental illness. 😬

Munchausen Syndrome by Proxy (MSBP) is a mental health problem in which a caregiver makes up or causes an illness or injury in a person under his or her care, such as a child, an elderly adult, or a person who has a disability. The most famous case was Clauddinea “Dee Dee” Blancharde abusing her daughter Gypsy Rose Blancharde.)

Back to Mary.

According to family members, Betty began prostituting Mary out by the time she was four years old. (That’s hideous. That’s a year younger than Shiloh, my baby baby. I hope it isn’t true.)

I also read that by the time Mary was five, she had already had a brush with death, watching her five year old friend being run over and killed by a bus.

By the time Mary was ten, she was quiet, manipulative, and isolated herself from everyone.

In May 11, 1968, just weeks before her first murder, Mary was playing with a three year old neighbor when he was horribly injured from a fall at the top of an air raid shelter.

His parents deemed it an accident.

After this, though, a few of the neighborhood mothers came forward to the police and said Mary had tried to choke their young daughters. No charges were filed, however.

On May 25, 1968, one day before Mary Bell turned 11 years old, Mary strangled four year old Martin Brown in an abandoned house. Mary fled the scene and returned back to the body with her friend Norma Bell, (no relation), but found they had been beaten by two local boys who had been playing in the abandoned house and stumbled upon the body.

Police were baffled by what they saw. Besides a little blood and saliva on Martin’s face, there were no obvious signs of violence. There was, however, an empty bottle of painkillers on the floor near the body. This led police to believe Martin had swallowed the pain pills and his death was deemed an accident.

Mary might have gotten away with this had she not gone to Martin’s family’s house and asked his mother to see Martin. She explained to Mary that Martin was dead, and Mary said she knew, she wanted to see the dead body in the coffin.

Martin’s mother slammed the door in her face.

Shortly after, Mary and her friend Norma broke into a nursery school and vandalized it with notes taking responsibility for Martin Brown’s death and promising to kill again. Police assumed the notes were a morbid prank.

The nursery school installed an alarm system shortly after and Mary and Norma were caught at the scene of the crime but were later seen as loitering and let off the hook.

Just.. YA KNOW!? All the signs are pointing to this girl.

Mary even told her classmates she had murdered Martin Brown.

It’s aggravating as hell.

BUT I DIGRESS

On June 31, 1968, Mary Bell, now 11, strangled three year old Brian Howe to death in the same area where she strangled Martin Brown.

She later went back to the body and carved an ‘M’ onto Brian’s chest with a razor and mutilated his thighs and penis with a pair of scissors.

In a sickening twist, Mary and Norma offered to help Brian’s sister look for him when his family realized he was missing. Mary even pointed out the cinder blocks where his body was, but since Norma said it wouldn’t be there, Brian’s sister dismissed it and looked elsewhere.

Y’all. I cannot.

When the coroner’s report came back on Brian, police were shocked to find the ‘M’ carved onto his chest and the coroner reporting this death was most likely caused by a child due to the lack of force used during the attack.

MORTIFYING

Mary and Norma were not conspicuous at all; they were interviewed by the police and excited to learn new news pertaining to the case.

Mary was spotted lurking outside of Brian’s house the day of his burial. She was laughing and rubbing her hands together when she saw the coffin.

The police called Mary in to be interviewed a second time and Mary made up a story about an eight year old boy she had seen hit Brian, (police knew she and Norma had seen him the day he died), in the head and that he had a pair of broken scissors with him.

The 👏🏼 police 👏🏼 hadn’t 👏🏼 disclosed 👏🏼 anything 👏🏼 publicly 👏🏼 about 👏🏼 the 👏🏼 scissors. 👏🏼

This is where Mary done goofed. Only investigators and the murderer would have known about this clue.

Upon further questioning, Mary and Norma broke down and began blaming each other for the murders.

During the trial, which took place in December, the jury agreed that Mary had committed the murders.

Did she receive a murder charge, you may ask?

Absolutely not.

While the jury did find Mary Bell guilty, a manslaughter charge was given because Mary’s lawyer and the court psychiatrists argued Mary suffered from psychopathy, and the court agreed she was not fully responsible of her actions.

😐😐😐😐😐😐😐😐😐😐😐😐

Norma Bell, however, was regarded as an unwilling accomplice and was acquitted.

Let’s look at the difference between manslaughter and murder charges and why this is so important.

man·slaugh·ter

/ˈmanˌslôdər/

noun

1. the crime of killing a human being without malice aforethought, or otherwise in circumstances not amounting to murder.

mur·der

/ˈmərdər/

noun

1. the unlawful premeditated killing of one human being by another.

I obviously haven’t gone to law school, but I would argue that the little neighbor boy’s “accidental fall” and the mothers coming forward about Mary choking their young daughters could be viewed as premeditated. She was trying to kill them, she just managed to kill two little boys instead.

Yes she had a brain injury, but giving her a manslaughter charge is offensive to me. Offensive for the families who lost their sons. If she has a brain injury and there were several cases documented where she was hurting other children, she should have been locked away forever. Just my opinion. I agree with medication and therapy, but anyone could relapse at any time and I don’t think that’s a risk anyone should take. Again, just my unprofessional as h*ck opinion.

(Ed Kemper went to a mental institute and tricked and lied his way into letting the psychiatrists let him leave after he had killed both of his grandparents at just 15 years old. They assumed he was rehabilitated; he just learned the right answers to their questions. He later killed eight more people, including his mother.

Just an example.)

(Another example, they medicated Richard Kuklinski after he was arrested and did not feel the need to release him even though he showed signs of improvement.)

Moving on.

The judge concluded that Mary was a dangerous person and a serious threat to other children. She was sentenced to be imprisoned “at Her Majesty’s pleasure,” a British term that basically means the powers that be would release her when they felt she had been properly rehabilitated.

Apparently, they were very impressed with Mary’s treatment and rehabilitation and felt like it was appropriate to let Mary Bell out in 1980, T W E L V E Y E A R S after Mary committed these murders.

She was put in very strict probation but was able to live amongst her community as a normal person.

The cherry on top?

Mary Bell was given a new identity to offer her a new chance at life and to be able to avoid the press.

She had to move several times because the press kept tracking her down, however.

Today, Mary Bell and her daughter are in protective custody at a secret address no one knows.

Norma Bell passed away in 1989.

Do I feel Mary Bell needs court ordered protection and should be able to hide her identity? No.

Do I think they released her far too early? Yes

Do I think Martin Brown and Brian Howe got justice? No.

Does this story anger me even though I’ve heard it and read about it fifteen million times? Yes.

Her mother should be responsible. She should be responsible instead of hiding. The victim’s families deserve better.
