- Super intriguing review of what looks to be a great read: www.historicalmaterialism.org/fully-emascu...
- God I hate the atmosphere of cloying salaciousness that hangs about all this Epstein stuff like humidity. Like, there's an oogling element, like wow, we can see the dirty underside and it's horrible but also in this barely concealed way really exciting for people.
- It's sick, a sickness equal to the crimes but it extends it also in its own way. I'm not sure that there's any 'proper' measure of reaction to any of this which is itself part of the abyss of the crime.
- The Deleuzian case for reading a shit ton of Kierkegaard is that K is an explorer of the incommensurable above all. It doesn't take much to read Fear & Trembling as a book not about faith but about becoming-imperceptible.
- Deleuze's incommensurabilities just happen to be worldly and, rather than occasions to exalt the divine, are opportunities to compose the New, to lay out planes of consistency presided over by the immanence and transcendence of Problems.
- The whole of F&T is basically K insisting on just how utterly imperceptible Abraham is, raging against all those readings that would subject him to apparatuses of capture. Squint, and Abraham becomes the figure less of faith than of the sui generis.
- Depressed astronaut who just needs a bit of space right now.
