  The German word ‘unheimlich’is obviously the opposite of ‘heimlich’ [‘homely’], ‘heimisch’ [‘native’] the opposite of what is familiar; and we are tempted to conclude that what is ‘uncanny’ is frightening precisely because it is not known and familiar. Naturally not everything that is new and unfamiliar is frightening, however; the relation is not capable of inversion.

  Sigmund Freud, from The Uncanny, 1919. Via.

  The Right to be Lazy by Paul LaFargue

  There are whole swaths of this pamphlet I’ve only skimmed, but I suppose that’s appropriate. LaFargue was Karl Marx’s son-in-law (after more than 40 years together, he and Laura Marx committed suicide together), and I remember seeing this and feeling immense relief that there might be some theoretical underpinning to my general slouchiness. I love that the original cover price was 10 cents, and I think about it all the time, whenever I catch myself against that anxiety that somehow my life is a thing that I’m squandering, and not a thing that is bewildering and open.
