at Brown we learned you can only say “rest in power” about Gilles Deleuze

american public health's absolute fecklessness is not just a sign of moral cowardice and depravity but of intellectual bankruptcy. such a field that cannot find the basic words to condemn a health catastrophe is not one that is seriously committed to rigorous study.
