Slavoj Zizek. On Belief and Otherness. 2002 5/6

[RationalEmotive]

Damn Schirmacher has to destroy the "How to Disappear Completely" anecdote :)

Cromwell, not Orwell.

Although a pertinent slip of the tongue

[brokennarcissist]

I hardt cultural theorist crossovers.

[aikigenius]

happiness seems a given in modernity..

fait accompli..

the consummation of the consumer

staving off fear of death/ fear of loss/fear of the other whose presence resuscitates these

happiness seems most of all to be, like zizek says about identity, a paradoxical thing we get from others.. even to death

thus its almost absolute status..

both from and to death.. with nothing left in-between

only Zizek would see genius in A Perfect Storm
