Julia Kristeva (Bulgarian: Юлия Кръстева) (born 24 June 1941) is a Bulgarian-French philosopher, literary critic, psychoanalyst, sociologist, feminist, and, most recently, novelist, who has lived in France since the mid-1960s. She is now a Professor at the University Paris Diderot. Kristeva became influential in international critical analysis, cultural theory and feminism after publishing her first book Semeiotikè in 1969. Her immense body of work includes books and essays which address intertextuality, the semiotic, and abjection, in the fields of linguistics, literary theory and criticism, psychoanalysis, biography and autobiography, political and cultural analysis, art and art history. Together with Roland Barthes, Todorov, Goldmann, Gérard Genette, Lévi-Strauss, Lacan, Greimas, and Althusser, she stands as one of the foremost structuralists, in that time when structuralism took a major place in humanities. Her works also have an important place in post-structuralist thought.
She is also the founder and head of the Simone de Beauvoir Prize committee.
In return, female subjectivity as it gives itself up to intuition be- comes a problem with respect to a certain conception of time: time as project, teleology, linear and prospective unfolding; time as departure, progression, and arrival-in other words, the time of history. It has already been abundantly demonstrated that this kind of temporality is inherent in the logical and ontological values of any given civilization, that this temporality renders explicit a rupture, an expectation, or an anguish which other temporalities work to conceal. It might also be added that this linear time is that of language considered as the enunciation of sentences (noun + verb; topic-comment; beginning-ending), and that this time rests on its own stumbling block, which is also the stumbling block of that enunciation-death. A psychoanalyst would call this "obsessional time," recognizing in the mastery of time the true structure of the slave. The hysteric (either male or female) who suffers from reminiscences would, rather, recognize his or her self in the anterior temporal modalities: cyclical or monumental. This antinomy, one perhaps embedded in psychic structures, becomes, nonetheless, within a given civilization, an antinomy among social groups and ideologies in which the radical positions of certain feminists would rejoin the discourse of marginal groups of spiritual or mystical inspiration and, strangely enough, rejoin recent scientific preoccupations. Is it not true that the problematic of a time indissociable from space, of a space-time in infinite expansion, or rhythmed by accidents or catastrophes, pre- occupies both space science and genetics? And, at another level, is it not true that the contemporary media revolution, which is manifest in the storage and reproduction of information, implies an idea of time as frozen or exploding according to the vagaries of demand, returning to its source but uncontrollable, utterly bypassing its subject and leaving only two preoccupations to those who approve of it: Who is to have power over the origin (the programming) and over the end (the use)?

also the quote is hilarious; it's like a parody straight out of the Sokal hoax.
Anywho, I think getting a Reliant model would make a good Cutethulhu picture.
Yes, but I left them at home. I'll get them to you either tonight or tomorrow, sorry about that.
the "no true scotch man" fallacy.
You da man
Stuff.
Other things.
Confusion.
Daxon as a farmboy trying to milk chickens.
The jeans I ordered are too small but my new shoes fit perfectly. Gotta send these jeans back.
Getting cancelled with a rushed finale without even seeing Hordak wasn't.
that cartoon was pretty sweet
I still think that looks like Podly.

That man isn't even trying.

Also, 10-year-old me and my friends thought Skipping Stones was really deep.
He-Man, obviously.
Best starship or bestest starship?
that's not the Defiant
also not Voyager
Good point.
Second best starship or second bestest starship, then?
Paradox forums, why would you mod Heart of Iron II for this?
I always enjoyed the Kaiserreich mod.

Grats on new shoes, I've been tempted to get another pair of sneakers, but having more than one pair of dress shoes, a pair of sandals, and a pair of sneakers strikes me as wasteful.

It's toxic in roughly the same way that modern Republican discourse is toxic
which is to say that it is not a toxin but damned if too much of it won't make you ill
Daredevil vol 1. You've already read some Miller Daredevil, this is the begining of his run. It's a bit slow because the first few issues aren't his but it does have the introduction of Elecktra and a bunch of other staples to DD's world.
Wolverine. Claremont writing with Miller on pencils. Yes, Wolvie is overexposed but this arc is why he was everywhere in the 90's.
God Loves, Man Kills. My favorite of Claremont's work on X-Men.
The Longbow Hunters. Mike Grell's reinvention of Green Arrow. No other capes, no gadget arrows, just Green Arrow trying to stop another archer while dealing with crime.
All of those are on Amazon.
Any more recommendations before I pull the proverbial trigger?
EDIT: Thom you read my mind and are the man.
I'll let you know what I pick up!
boo everyone always needs new shoes
take a hint from imelda marcos!
I don't know -- a few pairs of casual shoes with different looks are hardly a Marcos-level self indulgence. If nothing else, my mom always advised me to wear different shoes so that my feet aren't being stressed in the exact same ways every day. I've never actually looked whether that's true, because it sounded logical.
I have one pair of dressy bessy shoes that need to be replaced, three pairs of sneakers, and two pairs of Clarks now with this new black pair.
I am in this limbo of not wanting to wear teenager shoes but not wanting to wear overly dressy shoes (officewear is just jeans and casual attire), so the hunt for the perfect middle ground continues.
This is terrifying
