About the need for smooth utopias
I write these lines the day after the elections to the European Parliament, the dark times, the triumph of the Reactionary International in the elections to the European Parliament. It was already in advance and it is the confirmation of the conservative phase we live in, but it creates fear. In fact, one of the great victories of neoliberalism is the loss of ability to think collectively about future stimulants. It is in this void where the right end finds its place in an uncertain present without desirable prospects.
In this situation I come to speak about utopias and their necessary need. To think about desirable futures, stimulants and emancipators to transfer them to our daily tasks. Surely the moment when the underestimation of those of us who want to talk about utopias strategically will receive new fifths. We have to find new forms of utopia, even though we met them with an island, then they've had moles, planets, red stars, states, compact communities and other forms that today will have to take the form of ideas and imaginaries that will help us along the way.
One of the great victories of neoliberalism is the loss of ability to think collectively about future stimulants.
The dirty, dormid, multiple utopias will probably be what we have to build in the future, since to work advanced and developed utopian ideas, they will have to have an integral vision, with living lives in the center, and that allow analyzing and developing all the possibilities of life, created by the soil, the mud. We must develop a transitional approach to think about the collective sovereignty of the areas that make possible energy, food, living spaces, leisure, care, technology, work and life, to carry out the transformation of our bodies and relationships beyond the cis, patriarchal and anthropocentric model. We need a transhumanist, material and stimulating imagination.
Dirty utopias have always been a reality in our daily lives, and we must learn from people who have lived before, because for us they were lives, practices and projects that would be utopian, and that still exist today. Those that may need to be transformed to expand, but that, while dirty, show us the way. In dark times, to activate the international of hope, we're going to have to work on the landing utopias, dirt stained, rhizomatic, from day to day. C. Ursula As Le Guin said, "because our roots are in the dark, in the land that feeds us."

When you work with older people or people with physical and neural diversity, you realize that the idea of competition in our society limits us a lot as a species. That is, our system puts you in value by doing things specifically, and what it doesn't do is incapable of the... [+]

I do not know if you also have the same perception – I recognise this: here I have started to write in a scientific way. I am referring to the natural extension of the word laziness. I hear more and more in the corners of Hego Euskal Herria: Basque, Spanish and, of course,... [+]
Many at Christmas feel more lazy than illusion when we think about meals and family gatherings. But we anticipate that it is not food that makes us feel collectively uncomfortable, but the normativity that defines the traditional family. Moreover, we would dare to say that the... [+]
I have always found the way in Spanish to the carriages that can be found here and there: humiliating. Isn't it a pretty light, white name or doesn't it have any connotation? After all, everything that was going on there had to be humiliated. It is known that for the god of... [+]
