In this episode we discuss (eventually) Roland Barthes’ 1973“The Pleasure of the Text”. We dive into the cut between pleasure and bliss, administration and abolition, comprehension and noise. We travel vertically through time, trying to escape the horizontality of property, debt and prisons. How can we find the vertical when we are forced to wait? How can we reclaim agency from the narrative fantasies we are told to desire? Can we find a nihilistic truth at fantasy’s ultimate end point (hint, a special guest returns that no one asked for). Oh and Melletios somehow makes Tim paint again.
