Because it feels relevant as we continue to evaluate the media and our representatives’ statements, my favorite way to identify the active vs. passive voice.
A post by Rebecca Johnson: “I finally learned how to teach my guys to ID the passive voice. If you can insert "by zombies" after the verb, you have passive voice.” A tumblr respond from mightymur: “The final, brilliant word on passive voice. "She was killed [by zombies.]"<--passive "Zombies killed [by zombies] her." <-- active”

I literally gasped reading this - I really loved it too, thought I was alone! Can't wait to listen to this. I legit think in 15 years time we'll be talking about Him the way we talk about Jennifer's Body now in terms of how poorly it was received on its original release, despite being a banger...

I'm too fucking tired to debunk every stupid thing that Ryan Murphy said about Christine Jorgensen or how the public response to Ed Gein was catastrophic to the the perception of trans people so I'll just point to my book. We covered all of it.

Oh I *love* this Tim! If you are looking for other fun free stuff, Rorschach and Savageland are worth your time, and the entire Marble Hornets series on Youtube remains a found footage masterclass if you have yet to discover it 💜
