Letting the days go by – On my blog

By ~LS~ On May 14, 2009 · 2 Comments · In The Quotidian (yadda yadda) and tagged Tagged With: Blogging, Goals, Gratitudes, Threes

Facebook has changed the way I blog. I haven’t blogged since December, and even then it was only a single entry. Prior to the election, I only randomly surfed HuffPo when I was bored. As the election gave way to Obama’s cabinet selections and his first 100 days, I became addicted to following him in the news. You would think that this addiction would lead to more blogging, but it didn’t. At the time I figured out that all my blog posts would just point to the Huffington Post (the way HuffPo basically just points to the New York Times). So when I occasionally found an interesting, off-the-beaten-path link, I would just post it to Facebook.

I also got out of the habit of blogging in the Fall because I was teaching an overload. Boy, I will never do that again. Teaching an overload for me is like hitting critical [...]

Three interesting links:

1. NPR article on democrats losing ground in Louisiana. They cite LSU prof, Wayne Parent. It’s an interesting read. Apparently people in Louisiana comprise most of the 15 percent of the country who still support President Bush.

2. The FDA approved a marijuana pill, called Marinol. Ironies abound. The argument against medical marijuana is that the act of smoking it is bad for your health. But between feeding both the government’s war on drugs and the medical-pharmaceutical industrial complex, I’m not surprised that a pill form has been approved over the “street” form. Follow the dollar.

3. An article on why the next Harry Potter movie has been delayed. Apparently it’s due to Daniel Radcliffe’s penis.

Three things I don’t like about the semester:

1. Techniques of Speech from 10:00 – 11:00
2. Techniques of Speech from 11:00 – [...]

Last three movies I’ve seen

1. The Dark Knight
2. Hellboy II
3. Wanted

Three things I don’t want to do this summer, but I have to:

1. Go to Disney (again).
2. Serve on search committees at school.
3. Read the new public speaking textbook.

Three cool quotes from Donna Haraway:

1. Rage is not relativism in the sense that either facts or fictions are matters of “personal” opinion or “multicultural” difference. Quite the opposite. The colonialist epistemological dualisms of relativism and realism require tropic swerving in a spirit of love and rage. Anarchists knew that kind of thing; and anarchists made strong knowledge claims, not vapid truces. In the face of many established disorders we need to practice saying “none of the above.” (p. 3, Intro to Haraway Reader).

2. Michael Foucault’s biopolitics is a flaccid premonition of cyborg politics, a very [...]
