Oops

Today's prep work would be finished a lot faster if I hadn't accidentally stumbled upon a cache of Žižek articles for the London Review of Books.

There is a chocolate-flavoured laxative available on the shelves of US stores which is publicised with the paradoxical injunction: Do you have constipation? Eat more of this chocolate! – i.e. eat more of something that itself causes constipation. The structure of the chocolate laxative can be discerned throughout today’s ideological landscape; it is what makes a figure like Soros so objectionable.

(Seriously, that's an awesome article. How did I miss that one?)
