Just from a brief skim, Focauldian discursive methodology makes me wince but I'm liking the historical details in her constellation wrt Zizek and the Slovene Lacanian cabal

tbh the fact that a lot of this zizek stuff is also otherwise likely untranslated is useful

no i meant fuck jason walsh because hes clearly wrong, as i wrote in the applicable thread, and what i meant is that zizek on the throne means that jason walsh can be the Baddest Faith and people are just blinded by the sheen of zizeks grease and sweat



Zizek and Jay-walsh should collab on a Watch the Throne-inspired project a la kanye west and jay z.

The thread title seems a lil sensational to me - it seems no more offensive than anything else Zizek has written.

Good crowd, good crowd. I'll tell ya, I'm alright now but last week I was in rough shape, ya know? I mean, last week I told my wife we need a home improvement loan. She gave me a thousand dollars to move out.

I tell ya, there's always something. Love feels like a great misfortune, a monstrous parasite, a permanent state of emergency that ruins all small pleasures. Well, that's the story of my life - no respect! I don't get no respect at all!
