finally here i share my
🫀 revolutionary books set🫀
which includes vintage covers and original inside pages for a series of mostly leftist /theoretical and some literary irl books! titles include the communist manifesto, gender trouble by judith butler, women, race & class by angela davis, orientalism by edward said, tolstoy's anna karenina, v for vendetta original comics, and many more.
fully functional and FREE!
all books have in-game effects: either skill increase or focused, inspired, flirty, or energized moodlets.
skills include logic, charisma, and research and debate
should be mostly base game compatible (but lmk if not and i'll do my best to address it), research and debate skill ones require Discover University EP
they are divided between leon's books and constance's books, since i created them primarily for my own and @chiamomo 's gameplay (constance is her OC). see below for the in-game previews:
but if your sims feel more literarily inclined, then i direct you to:
i made much fewer books for constance because the sims 4 already has a surprisingly wide selection of base game books about music, poetry, and parody versions of various irl literary classics that constance would be interested in reading. i felt a need to make leftist books particularly because there was none in the game (not surprisingly lol).

also shout out to @simkatu for creating such wonderful reading animation overrides for the sims 4!!
do not post any of my work as if your own and/or put behind a paywall.
I hope I'll die of an overdose of pleasure of any kind. Because I think it's really difficult, and I always have the feeling that I do not feel the pleasure, the complete total pleasure, and, for me, it's related to death. I think that the kind of pleasure I would consider as the real pleasure would be so deep, so intense, so overwhelming that I couldn't survive it. I would die.

By Inadequate Reason
Michel Foucault’s work on biopolitics, for instance, can and should be read as an attempt to interpret the new forms of knowledge and power enabled by molecular biology. Reviewing François Jacob’s The Logic of Life, he suggested that molecular biology represented ‘the foundation, under our own eyes, of a theory as important and revolutionary of what may have been, in their own epoque, those of Newton or Maxwell’. He stressed, in particular, the rapid crystallisation of a new concept of life that transmuted ‘living organisms’ into ‘beings determined by a program residing in the cellular nucleus’; ‘bacteria’ into ‘chemical factories’; the ‘cell’ into ‘a system of physico-chemical reactions’, and the human body into ‘a reproducing machine that reproduces its mechanism of reproduction’.

if you're curious about foucault and antipsych i really don't recommend madness and civilization: a history of insanity in the age of reason - it's one of his most famous books so it gets recommended a lot but plainly speaking it's, i would say, the work in which his slopiness in historical research and his limited pool of sources shines the brightest. it's interesting as a historical document but it's full of generalizations, approximations and flat-out inventions.
instead, check out psychiatric power: lectures at the collège de france, 1973-74. it has a lot of the same problems re: sources and generalizations but it has 3 significant advantages when compared to madness and civilization:
its scope is (at least after the first three lectures) much more recent - madness and civilization deals with a period from the 14th to mid-18th century, and people with no prior knowledge of those times are generally more inclined to believe made-up exaggerated bullshit (as if "we just couldn't know, so any guess goes") or accept a limited handful of sources as historical fact, instead of as (good or bad) theory. psychiatric power picks up right after, from mid 18th century to mid-19th century: obviously people say stupid shit about that period as well but it is slightly more difficult to get away with it.
it's not strictly speaking a historical work, and it doesn't pretend to be. in psychiatric power he doesn't get lost in conjunctures nearly as much. his sources are mostly how alienists of the time wrote about their own work, and what that means regarding the development of psychiatric power. that doesn't mean that everything he says should be taken prima facie but if you understand it as this - a book offering an (not the) analysis of power through the prism of the work of famous french and english alienists in that period - then you can get much more out of it.
finally, and that's where the fact that psychiatric power was written a full 12 years after madness and civilization really becomes relevant: it's about psychiatrization and not about madness. foucault himself talks about the changes in his approach since madness and civilization was published, how he reconsidered the way he discussed violence or institutions, or even the construction of medical knowledge. it's not an attempt to establish a sort of history of madness through the ages that necessarily thinks of it as a transhistorical object - here he restricts his study to the emergence of modern alienism/psychiatry which makes for a much more interesting and focused analysis.
