hola amigas del club de lectura @debs @vicky @dania @alon @loena @celia aquí va un algo q sino me olvido

soooooo radical intimacy means fostering ways of interacting with others that disrupt/resist/create an alternative to the existing system aka (you guessed it) capitalism. meaning: care-based, community-forming, grassroots ways of doing things. the author goes over a few topics (mental health, relationships, housing, death) and first tells you everything that's wrong with them atm (and it's a lot) and a little bit about alternatives. as it often happens: long on the problematic and short on the alternatives. PITY! in any case, let us imagine further and create these alternatives ourselves!
