I know for a fact that @suspendedreason has. Be warned that Dewey's writing on education—the only thing he's still known for—is basically crap. Not representative of the rest of his oeuvre.

Dewey's "Art of Experience", quite frankly, solved art in 1934. Five years before the Wake and only slightly more comprehensible on first reading. It was the inspiration for performance art itself, it contains the best written account of how art functions, it is the bible. Shocked to learn...

I assure you, there are many others. They lean towards esoteric interpretations, and some are more fairly Hegelian than truly marxist, but it's worth reading about say, Alex Karp's interpretation of the Frankfurt School...

doesn't seem to be a thread on them, am sure there are some good takes here my conclusion after substantial rumination is that Lotringer and Kraus cannot be understood other than as landlords, and semiotext(e) is terribly straightforward ploy to translate a stream of revenue derived from rent...

The "spiritual" objection to meal replacement is true boomer energy. Nobody is using them to replace fine steak dinners with the boys, or fantastic saturday morning pancake breakfasts, they're eating them when they're in a hurry and would otherwise have a pack of wotsits or a microwave enchilada.

you really think americans use utensils

Soylent is fine. Banana flavor the winningest choice. Illegal in the EU because they use GMOs like good Americans. Other meal replacement drinks are stronger though; I probably like Huel the most, even though it tastes a bit crap—lower glycemic index, I think.

when I was a kid I did the elaborate ritual where you cut with the knife in your right hand and then swap hands before bringing it to your mouth. must have picked it up by osmosis. seems completely unhinged to me now. these days i just move my head to the plate and grab what I can, like I'm...

no need to drop the phone in the thames, just uninstall the browser and anything with news or that lets you scroll forever what are you gonna do, text your friends for ten hours a day? read thousands of ebooks? spend your morning looking at satellite maps of kathmandu?
