no. 19 on The Animal that I am (More to Follow)

As of now I have officially read by far the weirdest philosophical study ever made.
50 pages elaborating Derrida's thoughts on what his cat must have been thinking when he stood there, naked in front of it.

 Gosh, some people just had all the time in the world to think of theories while flexing naked in front of their pets.

Secretly, 
I wish I had that kind of brilliance.

And what does naked men and naked cats have to do with an architectural dissertation?
The only answer I can give right now is:
They're all making me dig my grave.

    The things philosophers got away with in those days. Imagine if you write all that in the modern day, people will admit you to the mental ward..
