Teeet of the year!

He’s the John Cleese of post-punk.

And I don't know if the answer is: everyone is too traumatized to do work and we need to reinvent society. Or if it's more like: generations are losing their cognitive abilities and willpower due to destructive technologies. Or: we all have post-viral brain damage. Or: all of the above.

"...Hook, Neill and Vanheule provide what we were all waiting for: a detailed commentary which does not aim to replace reading Écrits, but to render it possible. ..."

What a guy! Really makes me want to scrape some shekels together for it too

What’s bottom left?

Is that the new Wrecked Lightship?
