In these brief essays, Preciado idly comments on (then-)current events or half-remembers a Wikipedia article he read. I was drawn in by the Uranus motif and the idea of reclaiming/reinventing uranism, but he doesn’t really do anything with the concept beyond mentioning it. His observations are mostly obvious. Sometimes he’ll say something that might be interesting but his point is obscured by buzzwords and neologisms.

I stopped properly reading about a third of the way through, but I did skim the rest. I don’t like giving up on books but honestly? This was a phenomenal waste of time.
