like there's real magic within his mind to write spike/oz. crackship king i literally feel faint

sex ed in the warrior cats universe must be abysmal considering how often the she-cats are surprised to find out they’re pregnant and how leafpool got away with giving birth to three kittens without anybody noticing. and was able to pass them off to squirrelflight without anyone questioning how she never gained any weight

squirrelflight: yo guess what bramblebae we have kits now

brambleclaw: but we never—hmm. ok well that doesn’t seem right but i don’t know enough about babies to dispute it. yayy

My offhand analysis of why tumblr usamericans are falling so hard for the 4b movement currently is that’s it’s straightforward vicarious revanchism, and you tend to see this sort of thing a lot with people who vaguely call themselves “leftists” but have no framework of material analysis and work solely off of vibes. The fact that it’s in a colonial outpost they can condescend to makes it even easier for them to indulge in the fantasy of it from afar

it makes me feel like a wild chimpanzee truly the total lack of any analytical framework that's being demonstrated. the amount of people in the notes of my post falling over themselves to go well ok so clearly there's rampant transmisogyny but maybe all those terfs found their way into this movement by accident. maybe political lesbianism is not inherently transmisogynistic? maybe bioessentialism is fine actually and sound material analysis? did anyone consider that?

like, i wanted to choose excerpts from lee hyun-jae's article focusing on specific real-life instances of transmisogyny to add in the post, but frankly i'm not even sure people read those. and they certainly didn't digest the display of blatantly trans exclusionary politics that are central to mainstream korean feminism. (which actively prevent the movement from critically understanding much less dismantling the mechanisms of patriarchy.) hooray those poor oppressed women in that terribly backwards country are standing up for themselves! well of course we can't expect them to care about trans women, they can't possibly have Our Expansive Gender Understanding and it's unreasonable to ask them to share their hard-earned resources with fake women uhhh people who can't hope to understand their struggle uhhhh let's circle around to that. how exciting that those people over there are Doing Something despite their horrific ignorance! isn't that inspirational for us enlightened people over here?

Dear professor this assignment did not nourish my fundamentally curious soul so i did not do it No penalty full 100 points please Goodbye!

i know tumblr’s the Blogging site but i’m tempted to use it like twitter as it is the only place i can just Post. whatever.

i forgot about the fact that dan used to be a LOST wiki editor and also that he was a part of the competitive DDR community and he has the audacity to call phil the loser

shitting on ~queer media~ (god I fucking hate that term) from the last 15 years as being irredeemably cringe and worthless while holding up stuff from the 80s and 90s as unimpeachable is Precisely the internet gay version of the old white people who go to the concert hall to go see die Zauberflöte or Aïda or la Bohème and bitch and moan about how far music has fallen and how bad pop music these days but if you asked them to name one album written this year they've actually listened to or one symphony or opera they've listened to that's not on the constant philharmonic rotation they'd give you a blank stare. It is the incurious attitude of someone who cares more about being seen to like the right art than any actual regard for art itself

a lot of radical-posturing academic humanities writing is like. decent-to-insightful as far as describing the problems but falls completely to shit when the authors try to present themselves as engaging in any kind of subversion or opposition to those problems because both by form and by institutional affiliation the work is constrained to operating in the domain of language and rhetoric. and it's not that speech doesn't matter or doesn't tell us anything about power structures or historical forces but if your radical action at root boils down to like calling something a different name or making a declaration or whatever then probably it's more useful for your own career advancement than as a political act and it would behoove us all to read such texts with these considerations in mind

what is danandphilcrafts if not toxic doomed yaoi. at the end of the day

when you forget to 1. be kind 2. have fun

it’s odd that two of the podcasts i listen to right now both have an extensive discussion about orange vanilla coke (could be because it was 2020)

not really feeling the hype for past lives but also being annoyed by koreans dogging on it bc they dont understand the difference between korean & korean american

the ultimate nim experience

anyways i think its completely possible to have a critique of sexual behavior and manifestations of sexuality that have a clear basis in power dynamics of social relations or are historically contingent and i think it is actually necessary but theres just no point in trying to distinguish between normal and abnormal sexuality or to find a type of kink thats untouched by problematic power dynamics. all sexuality is perverse in class society
