feeling sad and fantasizing about the two semester seminar style course i would teach if i had, like, a completely different job... semester 1 would be focused on language and political economy, often together... semester 2, of course, would be "oops all wittgenstein"
or like what's a word like earnest that better captures the "you are the duper and also the duped" quality that characterizes so much participation in this stupid economy
if i had to pick one moment to put into that "you bolt awake in the mountains of carthage" meme it would probably be when people started earnestly talking about using AI agents to do stuff
my hay fever brain fog makes me capable of exactly one activity---binging episodes of nz/aus television show guy mont-spelling bee---and i am only more convinced that any adequate theory of language must start from language's foundational calvinballness
