the problem with coop bringing up dune every five secouds isn't that it's taking away from the podcast (it makes it better lol). The problem is that now i dont wanna read dune ebcause i know im gonna be dissapointed when i find out paul atreidies doesn't quote deleuze every five secounnds and in relation to every problem he faces. No 'guys don't invade that planet, otherwise we will be deleuzers of the coflicft' epic pun? Is it even worth reading if paul atreides make taht punn?

Ur understanding of how deleuze interprets leibniz is so good I would’ve never thought of it that way (I rly need to find more leibniz uses / interpretations in continental philosophy in general, super interesting stuff) - really a lot to think about that the “God” of spinoza is what happens when you subtract “God” from a traditional system like leibniz
