The Radical Potential of Getting in the Way

I picked this up off the new books shelf at the library bc I was like “yeah! great cover! great title!” but I think this is more aimed at an academic audience and semi-specifically a British academic audience? Like despite the way that it's formatted into “killjoy truths” and little Buzzfeed like segments there's like a lot of Judith Butler quotes and discussions of phenomenology that left me dazed and confused. Like I'm a well-educated person but also I intentionally did not choose to pursue a career in academia. For me I would have preferred to just read like a zine or Buzzfeed summary of this. But still some very important ideas and validating phrases in here for sure.
