I've read all the Fisher I could put my hands to, only this one left https://www.amazon.com/K-punk-Collected-Unpublished-Writings-Fisher/dp/191224828X

I will never understand how academics like him managed their output on top of the raw demands of that career (though maybe ir relates to ykw 
). Anyway, I won't pry on his personal meaning to you, but it's good to have a kindred soul about.

I try to be open about my own 'madness' as a small contribution against stigma in general, but the "sneering ‘inner’ voice which accuses you of self-indulgence" is so real, and /such/ a fucking fuck. If you ever wanna talk the politics of mental illness, don't hesistate, yeah?
Verylittlefishes
Well, spring fever (how weirdly it sounds in English) is probably the best time period for this)
Theodora
I'm not so familiar with that -- though I am trying to escape my own rut right now (yet it feels like that's a story of years) -- what language are you coming from where that phrase is more common?
Verylittlefishes

Theodora

Austria or Australia?
Theodora
Australia. I'm a migrant (not citizen yet, but Permanent Resident -- which I'm happy with, given the >10k AUD and infinite stress that went into getting that far), though I'm in Europe rn, for Reasons, and now trying to get back.
Verylittlefishes
oh, the Antipodes of Dreamtime land. cool.
Theodora
Unique place :D (just horrid borders)
Verylittlefishes

Ah cool :) yeah the continent has that if nothing else... the smell of gumtrees gets into your blood. I moved ignorant as could be, but since then Will Self's writing has come to resonate. It's a profound place in deep postmodern confusion. https://www.themonthly.com.au/issue/2015/october/1443621600/will-self/australia-and-i

Magnat boo, Australia should be your staging ground for island communism. (Just don't make me work plx.)
