The first of these is the distinctive personal journey which led to its publication. Building on this analysis, Fisher identifies some key tensions and contradictions in the ideological armour of contemporary capitalism and extrapolates from this some tentative strategic propositions for the anticapitalist Left. You live in an era where capitalism has been presented as the only realistic political-economic system, and it permeates your. Fisher seeks to illuminate the major cultural and social effects of a post-Cold War politico-ideological condition in which (according to Žižek’s well-known observation) ‘it is easier to imagine the end of the world than it is to imagine the end of capitalism’. Mark Fisher’s Capitalist Realism: Is There No Alternative? is a provocative polemical analysis of the narrowing of political horizons that has occurred over the past couple of decades and of the powerful ideological grip that capitalism holds on the collective, social psyche, destroying our capacity to imagine political alternatives. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Uncertainties is an anthology series - featuring authors from Canada, America, the United Kingdom, and the island of Ireland - each exploring the concept of increasingly fragmented senses of reality. “Ghost stories,” as Elizabeth Bowen observed, “are not easy to write - least easy now, for they involve more than they did.” But these twelve writers take up the challenge, each in their own way, with expert awareness of the genre’s limitless possibilities. “Surely all this is not without meaning.” - Herman Melville Watt, Gary Budden, John Darnielle, Kristine Ong Muslim, Lucie McKnight Hardy, Marian Womack, Nadia Bulkin, Rebecca Lloyd, Timothy J.

The source of the confusion is a 1967 song from the country and gospel group The Statler Brothers that cleverly made a pun of the proverb. ‘Kate and Edith Too?’ It don’t make no sense.” Some Twitter users claimed the proverb was really, “you can’t have your Kate and Edith too.” One user was incredulous: “So the saying is really you can’t have your Kate and Edith too? I know I ain’t the only one saying, ‘you can’t have your cake and eat it too.’” Another: “How am I just now learning this at 23?” Another: “It’s definitely the cake one. The popular English proverb is “you can’t have your cake and eat it too,” which means, according to the Cambridge Dictionary, “to have or do two good things at the same time that are impossible to have or do at the same time.” The shorter version would be “you can’t have it both ways.” In October of 2020, Twitter lit up after people discovered they’d been misquoting a popular idiomatic proverb all their life. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() You have two, correct?
