Vicky Osterweil is the author of an essay I liked in the New Inquiry called "In Defense of Looting," which she has expanded into a book that was recently published.

"[Looting] also attacks the very way in which food and things are distributed. It attacks the idea of property, and it attacks the idea that in order for someone to have a roof over their head or have a meal ticket, they have to work for a boss, in order to buy things that people just like them somewhere else in the world had to make under the same conditions. It points to the way in which that's unjust."

David Graeber's essay in which he presents a triadic model of bullying.

"We should imagine instead a three-way relation of aggressor, victim, and witness, one in which both contending parties are appealing for recognition (validation, sympathy, etc.) from someone else. The Hegelian battle for supremacy, after all, is just an abstraction. A just-so story. Few of us have witnessed two grown men duel to the death in order to get the other to recognize him as truly human. The three-way scenario, in which one party pummels another while both appeal to those around them to recognize their humanity, we’ve all witnessed and participated in, taking one role or the other, a thousand times since grade school."

This essay about quitting includes a beautiful map, a mileage summary, and some photos from the 100 mile hike in the Minnesota wilderness I did last year.
