At least someone is happy about it

Amna is thinking "get a load of this guy" and Jonathon is is thinking "give me the strength"

Will do thanks!

Hi Emily, do you know of any other resources that draw connections between queer and type-theoretic identities? I'm curious to learn more than what I can infer from the slides

Is this about someone in particular? Badiou maybe

In Chuang Tzu, the Emperor gets chewed out for trying to control the world.

Like, you have all these people in zip ties, surrounded by guns and fences--the fact that you can kick them and call them names says nothing about you, because anyone could do it. I could do it, a child could do it. If anything, the fact that you need to infict such a handicap shows your weakness!?

The dictator who believes they are the world's greatest guitarist because noone is allowed to say they're not. Something so weak about abject power

I guess it's like a vicious cycle, at some point there is nothing that is not evidence reaffirming your superiority

Like, do they even realize it's contrived? Or are they so high on their own bs? It just seems so pathetic in a way, like why would real power feel compelled to invent justifications for its abuses? Why would you need to wait for the flag to touch her at all?

I don't understand how this obviously contrived "stop hitting yourself" shit makes someone feel powerful. I guess the obviousness is the point

AAAAAAAAAAAAA I FKING FEEL THIS
