I’ve seen you mention structuralism and post-structuralism in some of your posts - can you recommend any books/articles/anything else on that topic?
tried to arrange in approximate order of most to least friendly for a reader unfamiliar with specialist philosophical language / concepts. also, this includes both secondary and primary literature and one might even say implicitly challenges some of the assumptions that structure that dichotomy. if one were in an impish sort of mood.

[ID: A screenshot of two Tweets written on Dec 8-9 by Richard Siken @/richardsiken on Twitter. They read:
"I am writing a screenplay where teenager cannibals are mildly fond of each other."
"Thanks to everyone for the head's up about Yellowjackets, Bones and All, and Hannibal, but my screenplay will be different because there won't be any love, desire, or sexuality in it. They are only mildly fond of each other. It's cannibalism as a metaphor for friendship." /end ID]

honestly kind of maddening that the jokes about shitty nurses still rely on invoking the ontologically evil mean girl who is just attracted to nursing for reasons of intrinsic personal badness, when what's actually happening is that pretty much any situation in which one person is in a position of structural power over another, and assumed to be more credible or reliable by dint of professional or social capital, is conducive to creating and enabling patterns of abuse
