Why did you abandon your blog, you piece of shit? No one wanted that stupid book about porn, and now we don't even get the articles.

Thanks, I'll check them out. Going through some of the early posts on suicide right now, a lot of Alone's writing still goes way over my head but it's not as bad as when I first discovered the blog.

Im not a fan of these witty sayings that try to condense a useful thought into something you can post on facebook. This one has a fairly simple idea behind it though, and i can appreciate it.

They tend to be either false, tautological or meaninglessly vague.

At least Derrida is fun to read though.
