Bloody hell - how good's this?! I missed it some months ago: @drcfleming on "Huts" (Heidegger's, Wittgenstein's, Adorno's* (* "the last philosopher who would be caught dead in a hut"), Kaczynski...) In:
@OverlandJournal overland.org.au/2025/08/huts…
Chris Fleming retweeted
“With the hut as his base, Heidegger would set out on walks where he would collect water from a well and think philosophically.”
This is different, but in a good way: a comic by Chris Fleming on philosophers and their huts.

From the #SRBArchive (2019): @drcfleming on being cool in Theoretical Cool.
‘To compound difficulties, outside of these focus groups, cool is largely an unspeakable art and its artisans will rarely admit to practicing it – to being cool, that is.’

It’s a phrase often bandied around – but what does it mean? And how relevant is the notion of ‘the end of history’ today?
"It is, no doubt, a memorable and dramatic phrase – but it is as unclear as it is striking," writes @drcfleming (@westernsydneyu). bit.ly/3GmD0Ha

'To simply point to a gap says nothing about why that gap should be filled. It is the hoarder’s – or the dentist’s – logic.' Love to see new work from @drcfleming on @SydReviewBooks today.

as i was editing Clean, i was dipping in & out of @drcfleming’s incredible memoir ON DRUGS. this quote in particular struck me because it captures the fantastical possibility of storytelling within the realm of addiction.

"I’m a scientist myself, not by training nor by profession, but I share their disillusionment, their libido for unweaving rainbows and saying that x is “nothing but” y. I do this all the time. Or I used to. I believe I did this." | @drcfleming's 'Limbs'. satpa.pe/limbs79db2

'Before it was all Kondoed into the sea, literature helped us to imagine other lives, other times, with no guarantee, sometimes not even the pretence, that these were true.'
Why literature, wonders Chris Fleming: sydneyreviewofbooks.com/essa…

For @WestWordsWS, @drcfleming reads an extract from On Drugs – a searching and insightful memoir of his experience of addiction, that confronts the pathos and comedy of drug use.

Politics has never been a gentle pursuit, but these days the “left” and “right” perceive each other not as participants in dialogue or even rivals, but as mortal enemies. How did we get here and what's next? @drcfleming joins @DavidPZone1 on @RadioNational ab.co/2G0TNmJ
