I wrote an article for Unsustainable Magazine that is based around my dissertation research findings about what it means to wish for systems overhaul. The consequences of that desire are what I consider now in this article. It gets a bit personal; I am embedded within my own specific context and my observations come out of that situation.

Last chance to sign up for my online speculative fiction course, which starts on Sunday! 🔮
We'll spend 2hrs a week for five weeks exploring different forms of metaphor and how to use horror, science fiction, and fantasy to deliver social commentary 🐉🚀🎃
Prepping for my speculative metaphor course (details above; starting on Sunday, a few places left!) and you know, I think I might just drop in a little Derrida when we get to talking about slippery meanings... I'll make it fun though, I promise! 😁
It's also Jewish deconstruction day! In which we celebrate our youthful infatuation with the Jacques Derida and deconstructionism long ago and we do so by deconstructing our sukkah.... an act of deconstruction of which I'm sure Reb Derida would approve.

Philipp Felsch's book Wie Nietzsche aus der Kälte kam [How Nietzsche came in from the cold] was mentioned at the workshop on translation and the archive yesterday … It's a study of the two Italian editors and translators of Nietzsche, Colli and Montinari.
In the 1970s I was a partisan in this glorious rebellion, but in the Willamette valley, far from the salons of Europe (we had pubs). It was exciting - and baffling.
I still don’t fathom phenomenology. I’m like Clint Eastwood’s mule in A Fistful of Dollars: I just don’t get it.
But I’m told that baseball is best understood phenomenologically. #theory#LiteraryTheory#phenomenology#baseball#ClintEastwood
