Ok folks, I’m back after a little raging against the machine and an unannounced vacation. The summer job has also been an on-and-off pain as usual. This semester starts in the ‘burgh on August 27th, so I’m planning on getting some more writing practice in via blogging again. I’ve taken somewhat of a break from the Deleuze Logic of Sense reading, mainly to do some history of philosophy research and to come to terms with the fact that I desperately need to overcome my aversion to Lacan.

While on vacation, I picked up Two Regimes of Madness and The Anti-Oedipus Papers. These ought to come in handy for my independent/side research on Deleuze, as this coming semester will be concerned with Aquinas on God and Being, Kant’s 1st Critique, and a whole lot of Merleau-Ponty.

Also, I need to get into blog form some of my meditations on ancient Epicureanism, speculative naturalism contra obfuscatory mystification, and the heterogeneous aspect of radical difference in the natural world…
