Catrina Davies
“I remembered how Dad used to say that possession is nine points of the law. I still didn't know exactly what it meant.
But I did know exactly where the key to his old office was hidden.”
Catrina Davies, Homesick: Why I Live in a Shed

Shoshana Zuboff
“Uncertainty is not chaos but rather the necessary habitat of the present tense. We choose the fallibility of shared promises and problem solving over the certain tyranny imposed by a dominant power or plan because this is the price we pay for freedom to will, which founds our right to the future tense. In the absence of this freedom, the future collapses into an infinite present of mere behavior, in which there can be no subjects and no projects: only objects.”
Shoshana Zuboff, The Age of Surveillance Capitalism: The Fight for a Human Future at the New Frontier of Power

Shoshana Zuboff
“It was there, in Spain, that the right to the future tense was on the move, insisting that the operations of surveillance capitalism and its digital architecture are not, never were, and never would be inevitable. Instead, the opposition asserted that even Google’s capitalism was made by humans to be unmade and remade by democratic processes, not commercial decree. Google’s was not to be the last word on the human or the digital future.”
Shoshana Zuboff, The Age of Surveillance Capitalism

Catrina Davies
“I would spend my adulthood watching the world I loved disappear, grieving, counting the losses one by one, trying to find my way home.”
Catrina Davies, Homesick: Why I Live in a Shed

Catrina Davies
“The house in Bristol belonged to a family who were traveling the world on our combined rent.”
