Clusterfuck

I haven't been posting on here the last few days because I'm trying to finalize my thesis. Which requires me making sense of the things I read.
So there's all these dead French dudes: Jacques Lacan, Michel Foucault, Gilles Deleuze, Felix Guattari and Jacques Derrida. And I go back and forth between them, knowing that my understanding of their writings is informed by my understanding of others' writings. So I read Foucault with Derrida and vice versa, etc.

And behind all this is a trio of thinkers that I consider foundational: Nietzsche, Freud and Marx. Sometimes Darwin sneaks in there too.

Because my brain wants to make sense of things, I'm a little scattered. Schizophrenic even.
