American, and British philosophers. Having both of these streams brought to my attention separately, I thought it may be interesting to bring them together for contemplation.

I'm not even sure I can say anything meaningful about the juxtaposition, only that I thought it striking. Shitmydadsays appeared previously.

Weird thing is though. I reviewed a recent book by Alain de Botton on my boeklog yesterday, and wrote:
de Botton makes the bleeding obvious a bit too bleeding obvious.
And what does he write on Twitter:
What we want from artists - to be helped to notice what we have already seen.
There is a whole school of thought based on this, I know. Stating that we wouldn't have recognized the bleeding obvious, if they hadn't described it first for us.

That's such a lame excuse.
