And always looked like an absolute baller

>BEHIND EVERYTHING CROUCHED THE BROODING, FESTERING HORROR OF THE ANCIENT TOWN, AND OF THE MOULDY, UNHALLOWED GARRET GABLE WHERE HE COOMED AND COOMED AND COOMED WITH FIGURES AND FORMULAE WHEN HE WAS NOT COOMING ON HIS MEAGRE IRON BED. HIS PENIS WAS GROWING SENSITIVE TO A PRETERNATURAL AND INTOLERABLE DEGREE, AND HE HAD LONG AGO STOPPED THE CHEAP MANTEL CLOCK WHOSE TICKING HAD COME TO SEEM LIKE A THUNDER OF COOMING.

Where to start w Lacan

Looking to read up on Freud, Lacan, and psychoanalytic theory generally.

Please recommend me texts for essential understanding. Reading order suggestions also welcome.

Understand that my knowledge is at the level of watching a few Zizek meme videos and the Pervert's Guide films.

Big Daddy Lacan is on your wavelength.

Wittgenstein in a letter to G.E. Moore on Otto Weinenger:

>"It isn't necessary or rather not possible to agree with him but the greatness lies in that with which we disagree. It is his enormous mistake which is great."

>Elsewhere Wittgenstein put the same point by saying that if one were to add a negation sign before the whole of Sex and Character, one would have expressed a great truth; that is, he did not disagree with Weininger point by point but as a whole.

Was he actually autistic?

Does nothingness have being?

As Slavoj Žižek puts it, "desire's raison d'être is not to realize its goal, to find full satisfaction, but to reproduce itself as desire." What did he mean by this?

Thoughts on Lacan? Any recommendations on where to begin with him?
