With Feathers: wading through judith butler - accessability & academia

http://rachelwithfeathers.blogspot.com/2009/09/wading-through-judith-butler.html

Saturday, September 12, 2009. Wading through judith butler - accessability and academia. Working in any academic field necessitates a decision about what kind. Of academic you wish to become. will you be a teacher? An attempted amalgam, generally resulting (hopefully) in a longstanding position at some little liberal arts place far removed from the reality of american political culture? By equivocating and then accusing her readers of not being responsible or hardworking enough to wade through her impene...

With Feathers: May 2009

http://rachelwithfeathers.blogspot.com/2009_05_01_archive.html

Sunday, May 31, 2009. Writers should not underestimate children. i think it's an enormous pity when people treat kids as if they were all sweet but just a little mentally handicapped. as if they were puppies rather than reasoning individuals, albeit small and still developing ones. now, i certainly don' t think that a 5-year-old has my sense of mental acuity, because i am really, really smart. hah! The tv version of gulliver's travels. Perhaps i'm just bitter about never getting to talk about the complet...

With Feathers: July 2009

http://rachelwithfeathers.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html

Saturday, July 25, 2009. Lists of lists of lists of lists of lists. This post is about lists. i am obsessed with lists. a minor case of obsessive-compulsive disorder will get you only so far in life. lists allow you to not only act upon your disorder, but comprehensively catalog its various contours and enshrine these contours in documents, which can be saved and archived and added to over the course of days, weeks, years. My knowledge of the internet and technology is so fundamentally underdeveloped tha...

With Feathers: the power of camp novels: reading ayn rand

http://rachelwithfeathers.blogspot.com/2009/08/reading-ayn-rand.html

Friday, August 21, 2009. The power of camp novels: reading ayn rand. A certain amount of flexibility is required in order to become a good historian. this flexibility is particularly important because you will inevitably end up studying the one thing that you promised. Yourself you would not touch with a 10 foot pole. indeed, you should refrain from making these sorts of promises to yourself. the path to a ph.d. is replete with far more dramatic opportunities to let yourself down. And i'm finding that i.

With Feathers: david lynch embraces america (?)

http://rachelwithfeathers.blogspot.com/2009/08/david-lynch-embraces-america.html

Thursday, August 20, 2009. David lynch embraces america (? David lynch has begun an interview project. His carefully detached delivery maintained throughout, lynch somehow manages to convey a certain sense of caring in this clip - something he generally has a difficult time doing, probably hinged at least in part on the fact that he has spent a career fucking with our collective need to identify linearity in . . . well, everything, including movie plot lines. After all these years of twin peaks. And high...

With Feathers: June 2009

http://rachelwithfeathers.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html

Saturday, June 6, 2009. Down with the dictionary. I am continually amazed that books are still banned. whatever for? The financial rewards and occasionally unwarranted critical acclaim writers reap for getting their books banned ought to outweigh the temporary bad press emanating from insane right-wingers. S list of banned books from 1990-2000. Are we comfortable with combining morality and politics, while religion and politics ought to remain mutually exclusive. given this particular differentiation...
