Adorno, Adorno, Adorno
But critique is so delightful

“Assuming the theoretical scene I have imagined takes place in the street, the hailed individual will turn around. By this mere 180 degree physical conversion, he becomes a subject. Why? Because IT'S CHRISTMAAAAAAS."

There are rumours around that #JacquesLacansHootenanny is not really live but was prerecorded in 1967. Such claims are ideology at its purest. #hootenanny

This reminds me one of my lecturers went to a conference as a phD student and Derrida was there and he followed him round the breakfast buffet going "Hmm, so Derrida drinks orange juice. Hmm, so Derrida likes eggs. Weird."
