Added 2025-09-06 04:25:02 +0000 UTCEpisode III on Bruce Fink's Lacanian Subject (1995). We crack chapter 5 to discuss the Other, mOther, Big Other, and importantly, why Disney's "Tarzan" sucks from a Lacanian analytic.

I'd like to learn more of the criticisms of IFS, as its used prominently in a work book I've been using to deal with childhood trauma. I think its been quite useful, but also recognize this workbook is only tangentially related to IFS perhaps and im unaware of how its implemented in other applications. Also I'm not a psych major.

2025-09-21 03:02:55 +0000 UTCvery very very brilliant w the tarzan and zettlekasten experiment. outdone yourselves! Is Tarzan AI? Still, he has a body that will die… but if he is this division between ape body and machine language with no symbolic mediation, he can’t figure death. ….. it’s too cool a thought experiment. (u know of course , edgar rice burroughs was william burroughs uncle or some relation… Tarzan a writer’s creation…)
