maybe, although i imagine that would undermine the orienting goal of looking somewhat professional

i mean i go to the store and trying on any of the available pants would make me look like a biggest loser contestant wearing their “before” clothes

wym ?

once again dismayed that this country only produces clothes for fat people

you might wanna change it to an allowlist too so the 5th column doesn’t boop u

maybe i’m being a statistard but i do not like the methodology of this study. “manual transcription of the main (vocal) melodies into MIDI format from the top 5 songs of each year from 1950 to 2022, according to the Billboard year-end singles charts”

don’t worry chat we have now retrieved a fresh router that isn’t owned by an evil isp

i can come to you… less awkward to run away than kick you out

locked down by dumbass ISP… motherfucker NO I WILL NOT USE YOUR MOBILE APP TO PORT FORWARD

me when i cluelessly turn on the new coding assistant in all my workqueues

why can i not spend my life alone in dark closet? life is so unfair….

i lie i lie 😭😭 too open too open im coward, self-conscious, and don’t care too much for my body

aaaaa ok look i have some business trips coming up but after that? so like 4 weeks out? lol short time tho i’m too embarrass

i think i also mean to say this strand — all 3 of you find profundity in the superficial. the micrological contains all the significance you need

hhhhh this is precisely my point - maybe my mind is too full of my book companions, but i cannot help but find these as shared sensibilities. i think another one of your strengths is your malleability of metaphor, although you always seem to invert those of my book friends

when i say “rational” above i mean Rational in the strong enlightenment sense, as a guiding philosophical force, accumulating higher truths ofc there are many other rationalities :)

also i have thoughts and posts like these after we talk sometimes, that you are using nietzsche’s arguments against me

“turn away from all that bad air willow, maintain a distance further than the pathos of distance, as to not harm your vitality. pursue your higher aims, quit this all too ascetic descending spiral of self-imposed sufferings” okay prxr-nietzsche, you win >.<

ooooh good question - you would hate nietzsche the person, but i think if you became familiar, you would love mr. teddy adorno :) he’s much softer than most think.

even their work does not speak for itself, so it will depend on what interpretive mood whether you will like the content of their writing. the (hypothetical) first read, you would hate and burn the book. but second read, you may feel the warmth of the ice.

HHHHH YES OFC DO NOT READ THEM STAY PURE STAY PURE

for example, a rather subtle point in adorno’s treatment of ethics is that conceptual engagements (Justice, Good, Evil) are bound to be false and leading in the wrong direction, and that human experiences must be placed at the forefront, however “tainted” they may be.

for nietzsche, the shared affinity tends to be around themes of life-affirmation i think the common current is when these thinkers are anti-rationalistic, anti-philosophical. there are certainly differences (nietzsche is more aristocratic in impulse, adorno is more unceasingly critical),

but i think if you would read them, i would think you could find them to be the best of fellow travellers, and the most terrible enemies

so as a more pointed example for N, the ideas of amor fati (love of fate) and the praise for a (somewhat mythological) humanity exemplified by Greek life and action, unencumbered by the conceptual burdens of Grand Philosophy.

there may be a more positive appraisal of suffering as a part of this story, but i think if interpreted charitably, you may find this lovely (but in reality you will hate :P)

c-c-can we…. play together in hell 🥺👉👈

something i mean with a genuine admiration (although you may interpret as insulting) is that you are the most faithful nietzschean, the most faithful adornian, etc. while denouncing their every word. i am often astounded by this, and it makes interacting with you very rewarding (and confusing)

i would love such independent joys — unfortunately the existing totality prevents such independent individuality from emerging. i will remain steadfastly skeptical of the “the things they want to do”, as their desires are forged in compromised circumstances.

that being said, you would be correct to say that individual phenomenological vividness are the most indispensable and invaluable features of life, shining a fragmentary view of what could be.

there is no justice, there is no evil, there is no white; but there is black, that which ought to be avoided, demanded immanently.

you x me :3

yes, true. the theoretician exercises an aggressive critique not only against the conscious defenders of the status quo but also against distracting, conformist, or utopian tendencies within her own household; the working class is integral to capitalism rather than the embodiment of its negation. :)

most elegant picture….

🐱meow

oh oh prxr! i wanted to send you picture (but since you won’t friend me back i have to send it here)

yes yes yes pls

anarchist praxis

you're such a loser

*read this in the tone of me grinning widely and with abundant affection

i do not like peter gordon on adorno

stop trying to "redeem him from nietzsche". your political-philosophical disciplinary partisanship is showing despite your espoused rejection of academic fragmentation. a return to moralism as framing, no matter how mature, is entirely wrongheaded. the stench of habermas looms.

freyenhagen is correct if you don't interpret him incredibly stupidly.

i listened to a conversation between gordon and jaeggi and was absolutely floored to hear her describe freyenhagen's book as "the liberal negativism of fear'

And I saw your body covered in roses And I started screaming, nobody noticed The locket you gave me, thread intertwined Tearing taut at the seams when it started unwinding I fell out the trunk of your dad's four-wheel drive And we laughed it off when we called it a night Through the laurels and

brushweeds, we walked side by side God, you were so pretty, even when we were crying 'Cause the rust started falling, I ran out of time Watch the world invert into infrared light Lying lithe on the duff, dying embers dissolving The smoke in my lungs couldn't stop me from calling your name

i crave novelty and comfort and safety and risk and peace and excitement and warmth

"i'm wasting my life being a cop, endlessly chasing something unfalsifiable" have you considered not wasting your life like that then

i hope they re-hire this script writer when it gets made
