Great stuff, I just had a peek at it and it says what we expected. They come down on Wittgensteins side, so I am looking at it as a way into Wittgenstein mostly.

Just got myself a copy of 'Gender Trouble' by Judith Butler. I'm interested in Butlers' 'performative turn' which links her to Foucault, as well as Queer Theory, which may shed more light on Derrida.

I'm reading lots of stuff as usual. A really nice one is this thin little book called 4000 Bible questions and answers.
For Philosophy or Mysticism its a book on a Korean Buddhist named Taego.
Tons of other books aforementioned and continuing to be read.
I have a big pile of books next to my head on the bed. One pile deals with all sorts of Semitic stuff and includes the Bible there. I want physical copies of transliterated religious texts though.
I have lots of stuff I am bookmarking on my phone. The reading seems endless and worthless, as I won't be able to use it for anything communicative for the most part or anything anyone cares about. I just read to keep finding things to be inspired by or to wrestle with. I don't even particularly like any of it. I think slapstick is much more profound than anything anyone could ever say. Just tripping and smacking ones face into table being the ultimate truth made manifest.
