running curse of strahd has been fun but also is driving me kind of nuts on several fronts from a narrative design perspective.

I make myself in the sims like a ritual every time im in the depths of some truly bottom of the barrel miserable ass dysphoria. easier to think about the body in the process of trying to (re)create it (faithfully or imaginatively, depending). it's useful even if it doesn't help

I really need cis people to understand that for decades access to trans healthcare was about presenting and pandering in a very narrow, exact and specific way to meet a cis doctors fetishistic projections without them claiming it is instead your fetish.

I don't give a fuck if a piece of media depicts sexual violence, which is a flexible, expansive concept. Men are violent because our entire political culture enables them to be, not because 'evil' fiction corrupted them. When fascists come at you with a wedge issue you say "no," not "yes, and."

i dont really think this is true. i think ppl are uninterested in seriously educating themselves on the shared history of disability politics and labor rights and decide that the representative of all disabled people is some dipshit poster called like RainbowHeartSpoonie
every day this grows more true

Given how infrequently I encounter psych practitioners these days (exclusively when they are acting in their capacity as a means-testing barrier to other care I need) it's wild how much insane shit I have said to me by one of em in the last year.

i have zero interest in most modern low budget shlock because it’s doing this self conscious “haha so bad it’s good just like the 80s!” thing. but you can’t produce that intellectually. you need to be trying to make a normal movie and have it come out wrong because you’re a crazy person

It’s weird to me that scholars keep writing that John Singer Sargent was a very private man who left no evidence of his sexuality when his sketches are like the definition of being horny on main, 19th century style.
