Judith Butler explained for the internet, using cats.
This most Internet-friendly breakdown of a modern philosophy comes to us from Hannah McCann‘s blog BinaryThis, which earlier this week posted the also excellent philosophical FAQ Foucault Explained With Hipsters, which originated as a handout for a gender studies course McCann taught.
HAHAHA
I want to go here. August. Please.

"Go after her. Fuck, don’t sit there and wait for her to call, go after her because that’s what you should do if you love someone, don’t wait for them to give you a sign cause it might never come, don’t let people happen to you, don’t let me happen to you, or her, she’s not a fucking television show or tornado. There are people I might have loved had they gotten on the airplane or run down the street after me or called me up drunk at four in the morning because they need to tell me right now and because they cannot regret this and I always thought I’d be the only one doing crazy things for people who would never give enough of a fuck to do it back or to act like idiots or be entirely vulnerable and honest and making someone fall in love with you is easy and flying 3000 miles on four days notice because you can’t just sit there and do nothing and breathe into telephones is not everyone’s idea of love but it is the way I can recognize it because that is what I do. Go scream it and be with her in meaningful ways because that is beautiful and that is generous and that is what loving someone is, that is raw and that is unguarded, and that is all that is worth anything, really."

Here are three new pieces of miniature street art created by the ever-awesome Slinkachu (previously featured here) in Wandsworth Common, London. Slinkachu had this to say about the new work:
“I was humbled to be asked to work with War Child, the charity who support children affected by war around the world. The three installations above were created for 20 Years of War Child, a new exhibition celebrating 20 years of the charity’s work. The show is being staged at The British Music Experience museum of popular music at the O2 in London, and will feature my works alongside photography and album artwork showcasing War Child’s long-running collaboration with the great and good of the music industry. The exhibition opens on Tuesday 19th February and runs until 28th March.”

Be a dork, tell your friends you love them. Resist the temptation to view those around you as objects and use them. Recognize empathy and vulnerability as positive forms of strength. Resist the internalization of capitalism, the reducing of people and oneself to commodities, meant to be consumed. Resist psychic death. Don’t allow the world to make you into a bitter abusive asshole. Cry in public. Don’t judge other people. Learn to love yourself. Acknowledge emotional violence as real. Figure out how the idea of competition fits into your intimate relationships. Decide that you’d rather learn stuff than prove you’re right all the time. Believe people when they tell you they are hurting or are in pain. Recognize, you are not the center of the universe. Recognize your connections to other people and species. Make additions to this list and/or think about why you don’t agree w/ some of what I’ve written. Don’t assume people invent pain in order to manipulate you or make you feel bad. Close your mind to the propaganda of the status quo by examining its effects on you, cell by artificial cell. Trust.
