LOOK UP! PREPARE THE WAY! after forging our way thru starting to move (ick! blegh!) & having Just Too Much To Do, we're BACK!!
welcome to PART ONE of our angels episodes, The Great Work Begins! This week we talk about angels and how they factor into world religions, MCR, and the play Angels in America. We are NOT theology students but we ARE drawing some unexpected connections to dig into the links between religion and queerness in MCR.
Topics include: Frank's reverb sale, angel droppings, translations of ancient Hebrew, EJ's midwestern religious upbringing, Gerard Way's legitimate gift from god, making catholicism sexy, angel cum, God playing sims, Reaganism, Louis's terrible and still relevant takes, the work of survival, the absurdity of decay, Wikipedia pronouns, MCR as a Christian rock band, and incredibly stale discourse about Patrick Stump.

you didn’t think we would join the gender wars on the side of anything other than gender did u??????? episode 8 Gender Studies 101 is up hot & ready to be slurped like some fresh noodles
welcome to ur first day of Gender Studies 101! in this episode your esteemed professors take you through foundational gender theory texts: we’re talking about Judith Butler, Donna Haraway, Leslie Fienberg, and Michel Foucault. we’re also wading through the discourse about how we talk about Gerard’s gender, and what does it actually mean to be trans anyway? (also we’re wading thru some asks & sharing some Completely Uncontroversial Opinions that will Make No One Mad)
Topics include: the gender wars, wrangling the discourse, a history of gender expression, the inherent truth of gender, gender as a doing, “reality”, terms and conditions, what is a “woman” and what is a “trans person”, drag and subversiveness, bad takes from cis people and why they are wrong, X gender markers, identity politics and coalitions, cyborgs, hyperpop and posthumanism, Geoff Rickly and postmodernism, the normative politics of internet spaces, and meaningful community at live shows.
