Writing about one’s own depression is difficult. Depression is partly constituted by a sneering ‘inner’ voice which accuses you of self-indulgence – you aren’t depressed, you’re just feeling sorry for yourself, pull yourself together – and this voice is liable to be triggered by going public about the condition. Of course, this voice isn’t an ‘inner’ voice at all – it is the internalised expression of actual social forces, some of which have a vested interest in denying any connection between depression and politics.

I am promoted, which means I get a new manager. Every time he walks by my desk he punches me in the chest and tells me to think big. He has no face—just eyes and a mouth, both capable of screaming: “IMAGINE IF WE CANNOT BE STOPPED. IMAGINE IF NOTHING STANDS IN OUR WAY.”

We are attempting to provide tentative situations that may be manufactured by the activities of the present. For without any clear body whose responsibility it is to measure, evaluate, and interrogate the effects of the world today on the people of tomorrow, the burden falls on us.
