Scouted by a modeling agent when she was just sixteen years old, Cameron Russell first approached her job with some reservations: she was a serious student with her sights set on college—not the runway. But it was a job, and modeling seemed to offer young women like herself unprecedented access to wealth, fame, and influence. Besides, as she was often reminded, “there are a million girls in line” who would eagerly replace her. In her memoir, Russell chronicles how she learned to navigate the space between physical appearance and interiority, and making money in an often-exploitative system.

Story
Judge, jury, and executioner, Judge Dredd is the brutal comic book cop policing the chaotic future urban jungle of Mega-City One, created by John Wagner and Carlos Ezquerra and launching in the pages of 2000 AD in 1977. But what began as a sci-fi action comic quickly evolved into a searing satire on hardline, militarized policing and "law and order" politics, its endless inventiveness and ironic humor acting as a prophetic warning about our world today—and with important lessons for our future.

Story
Global networks have formed "anti-gender ideology movements" dedicated to circulating a fantasy that gender is a dangerous threat to families, local cultures, civilization -- and even "man" himself. But what, exactly, is so scary about gender? In this vital, courageous book, Judith Butler, the ground-breaking philosopher whose influential work has redefined how we think about gender and sexuality, carefully examines how "gender" has become a phantasm for emerging authoritarian regimes, fascist formations, and transexclusionary feminists.

We learn each day the new questions we are not allowed to ask, the new rules we are required to follow, and with each crisis the facade of freedom is removed. While our past saw us controlled through indirect measures like propaganda and finance, the new world system seeks to integrate biology and technology, and to use the latter to remake the nature of man into something new, something that can be ...
