No one understands Lacan. He's not a real thing.

http://www.richardwebster.net/thecultoflacan.html

He plagiarised his only idea. The only thing you'll get out of Lacan is forcing yourself to scour your eyeballs with his worthless Ecrits, edited by his faggot High Priest who won't let anyone know the spooky secrets of how he anoints the original source texts in the Sanctum Sanctorum, until finally it clicks, consciously or unconsciously, that there is just a short list of factoids you're supposed to know about Lacan if you want to be a "Lacanian."

That's pretty much how it goes, that's the general feeling you'll get from such writers, but especially from Lacan. Just try to picture what he is describing on a theatrical scene in the unconscious and try to make the best of it.

It helps if you go along with him even if you might disagree on some points, even fundamental points. The unconscious as a theater that I mentioned is such a point, even though it has itself been contested (by Deleuze & Guattari for example).

Even if you...

I am currently writing that book.

I argue that having children is a necessary step towards caring for a society's future.

I don't care about gender roles, though. The only people who defy them are the ones who wouldn't be very good at fulfilling them anyway, so there's absolutely no need to meditate over or enforce the concept.

No? No more singing? Then Iwill sing of the self
Myself, so numbingly Me and yet so utterly You
its very dial-a-cliche Iknow but its all Ihave

Unreal City! Insidious and so completely You
a dim-dashing-dim sprawl of ragged carpet
velvet swish ETCETERA.ETCETERA.

wave-stone like water wibbles
shores crash and echo
distilled semen
moonlight lifted off the waxy keyboard

As for me? I was just another out-of-business private eye with a half-tank of gasoline and too much curiosity for his own goddamn good. I yanked the wheel and my old black pony groaned, pulling off 9th Avenue onto the tunnel road. It glared up from below, the orange-lit maw of the city. One slip of the hand and it would swallow you up whole. I’d seen it happen before. The first broad.

Your subject-verb agreement makes me weep.

I didn’t even know about her until she turned up a floater in the Hudson. You could see it from the newspaper. Water in her lungs, and a pair of starry doe eyes that never stopped getting excited to be seeing the Big Apple first-hand. Pretty. The innocent-looking kind of pretty. Small-town Georgia girl sweet on a big-city guy doing his nation proud over there in Korea. She told him she’d wait for him when he shipped out; life has funny ways of making you break your promises. Thanks to some friends in low places, I got hold of the pictures that the press wouldn’t publish....
