Sorry to hear about David Lynch. I worked beside him (same studio) while he was making BLUE VELVET. He answered my questions about his work with grace and honesty. I especially enjoyed his deeply existential comic strip, The Angriest Dog in the World.”

I've been rereading #TheSublimeObjectOfIdeology lately and trying to actually comprehend it this time. This led me to try to understand #HegelianDialectics, obvs. So I was trying to fathom this (from #Wikipedia):
