My name is Nick and through literature, through music, through friends and laughter and late night adventures, I try to be caring and engaged rather than cynical and distracted.
I'm not good at translating my thoughts into blog form, so this is mostly reblogs. Generally, topics include marxist philosophy, feminism, semiotics, literary theory, quite a bit of humor, and anything else that comes along.
This is my wonderful girlfriend.

"It is therefore, I think, a mistake to think of the individual as a sort of elementary nucleus, a primitive atom or some multiple, inert matter to which power is applied, or which is struck by a power that subordinates or destroys individuals. In actual fact, one of the first effects of power is that it allows bodies, gestures, discourses, and desires to be identified and constituted as something individual. The individual is not, in other words, power’s opposite number; the individual is one of power’s first effects. The individual is in fact a power-effect, and at the same time, and to the extent that he is a power-effect, the individual is a relay: power passes through the individuals it has constituted."
Foucault, Michel, Society Must be Defended, ed. Bertani and Fontana, trans. Macey (Picador: 2003) p.29-30 (via fuckyeahdialectics)
i mean you COULD blog about feminism, or you could enjoy the web as it was originally intended: to share military codes and messages 2 help win the cold war
"The imaginary is not formed in opposition to reality as its denial or compensation; it grows among signs, from book to book, in the interstice of repetitions and commentaries; it is born and takes shape in the interval between books. It is the phenomena of the library."
Michel Foucault (via wordpainting)
