‘Habermas first lit my path as a critical theorist. I remain deeply grateful for that. But over the years the light he cast flickered and waned – until, with his stance on Gaza, it seemed to go out.’
Nancy Fraser on the philosopher, from the blog.

Glad to have been invited to speak about saunas, tearooms, and their dual role as spaces of refuge and control.

Does anyone know where to find funding for travel and accommodations for a conference at Aberystwyth University in Wales (February 7, 2026)? I've been invited to speak at the "French and Francophone Philosophers and the Development of LGBTQIA+ Movements in the 20th Century" conference.

I believe information about fees should be clearly stated in the call for papers. Otherwise it’s a bit of poor taste.
The event will be broadcast on www.youtube.com/@letrastv-un...
Tomorrow I'll be giving a talk titled "Del espectáculo de la tortura a la performatividad cotidiana: una lectura estética de Vigilar y Castigar" at the II Coloquio Internacional Michel Foucault, at the Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcos (Callao, Perú).
Doing a PhD–– or perhaps attempting to do so–– is like relearning how to write.
Funny. I've received feedback saying that my chapter "adds a scholarly flair to the volume that would have been 'vanilla' without it ". Cool.

Isn’t Radiohead a good playlist for writing sessions?
I share with you the program of the international conference 'Gilles Deleuze – 100. Thinking is an Event', taking place in Riga on October 8–10, 2025. Thanks to @zanelo.bsky.social and the organising committee.

Pleased to share here that my proposal, “Reframing Masochism: Deleuze, Žižek, and the Dynamics of Power”, has been accepted for inclusion in the conference “Gilles Deleuze – 100: Thinking is an Event”, which will take place in Riga and online, 8–10 October 2025.
Some shots from the incredible @eui-eu.bsky.social campus. Just one thing: it would have been expected more coffee.
Okay, KLM forgot my luggage in AMS. Cool.
Next week, I will participate in the highly engaging conference "Law & Revolution: Abolition or Prefiguration?" at @eui-eu.bsky.social in Florence, Italy. I will share a panel with esteemed colleagues and friends, and I look forward to meeting many more fellow scholars.
Let’s celebrate! 🕺
OK, I’ve uninstalled WhatsApp from my phone. First impressions: fewer interruptions and more focus on me and my tasks. I switched to Signal, but only for communicating with my family. It's much better so far.
It would be useful to discuss the link between research and benzodiazepines someday.

Great news! I'll be one of the contributors to a book set to be published in summer 2026 in the UK, where I explore sadomasochism as a framework to understand power relations and resistance 📚✨
I saw this thread and I thought: wtf, I still use WhatsApp. By now it is unlikely to be uninstalled from my iPhone. But I’m using a box to put it far from me and it has a chronometer with which you can set up the amount of minutes/hours you don’t want to be able to use it: tinyurl.com/mtph2p6a
Merci beaucoup Fran
