but anyway

Waving the photographer off, he points in the distance across the Slovenian capital. "Over there, that's a kind of counter-culture establishment – they hate me, I hate them. This is the type of leftists that I hate. Radical leftists whose fathers are all very rich." Most of the other buildings, he adds, are government ministries. "I hate it." Now he's back in the living room, a clinically tidy little sliver of functional space lacking any discernible aesthetic, the only concessions being a poster for the video game Call Of Duty: Black Ops, and a print of Joseph Stalin. Žižek pours Coke Zero into plastic McDonald's cups decorated in Disney merchandising, but when he opens a kitchen cupboard I see that it's full of clothes.

you;re an idiot for posting on an idiot board to begin with. this place is doomed to fail, and anyone who posts on it is at the least tempting fate, who is such a vindictive bitch, i mean she;s a big enough of a cunt that its just asking for it to ... but whatever, it;s your life

we're all doomed to fail: eternal recurrence is a lie. sell your pokemon cards while they still have value. the truth is out there. ron paul's meinkampf (thankx defbypills, good rec')

i'm almost done with journey to the end of the night, halfway through riceour's freud and philosophy, which is just monumentally incredible; i'm well into elaine scarry's body in pain, which has completely transformed the way i look at torture, and we're only on the first bit - it's not exactly fun reading, but she is known for doing what she does, and she does it.... also, trying to read phenomenology of mind.... what else .... ah, yes, i;m reading another short book based on some of Gadamer's lectures... Gadamer is someone you want to know if you are interested in Hegel... oh and I am buing research chemicals off the internet and probably irredimably hurting my brain

what kind of research chemicals
