Doesn’t this just make you want to jump into bed with Žižek?

you’re leading me to sin, Roland!

If your eye causes you to sin …

I wondered for a moment why a picture of a bear in a bed would have that effect. Then I looked closer.

Do you think Analia has to put up with him talking all night?

Even (a vast amount of) cocaine wears off eventually. In his prime, Keith Richards slept twice a week (as he admits in his recent autobio) so I’m sure Žižek probably averages close to the same.

Response to Dan (below):
These days ‘Keef” Richard has given up the hard stuff (heroin and coke), and stoically limits himself to chain smoking ciggies and consuming his daily bottle or two of whiskey.
Keef’s biography has attracted attention from the medical profession. A few days ago an English prof of toxicology was asked by the BBC to comment on Keef’s “intake”. The prof replied that Keef obviously had a “remarkable constitution” and advised the public not to take the same chances with their constitutions….
Judging by the report, he didn’t have any advice for Keef.

As a nurse once said to me (actually my ex-wife), there is nothing wrong with heroin, as long as you can afford clean stuff. I wonder if the same applies to smokes and whiskey.

Perhaps he’s interviewing prospective faculty at an academic conference, doing the whole hotel room thing. I’ve heard stories that sound like not much different than this picture looks.

I have a somewhat shaky shot of Mieke Bal lying on a bed in a brothel, taken by myself, but I can’t show it since she vetoed it. Damn, Žižek would let me.

Why shaky, Roland? Was it dark?

I was in a hurry and wanted a shot before she got up again.

[...] This is more or less the standard Harvey line and a relatively uncontroversial summary of neoliberalism. In Jesus in an Age of Neoliberalism, there are areas of disagreement with parts of the standard narrative (e.g. over the upheavals and significance of 1968, Marxism and opposition). And there is also something worth adding to this narrative of the rise of neoliberalism: liberal masking, deflecting and/or justification of power. Here we might echo, among many others, Žižek’s critiques (sorry Roland) which partly function as an attack on a postmodern penchant for praising displacements, reapplications read as potentially ‘subversive’, and replicating ever more ‘sites of resistance’ where the old story is simply being repackaged for a new age but now with added credibility. Thanks Roland [...]
