Bucky Barnes/Winter Soldier in Captain America: The Winter Soldier (2014)
just got a call from the american psychiatric association. you old dogs, i said, picking up on the first ring. how many times i gotta tell you to lose this number. i don’t want you coming around here anymore. “listen, toots, we’ve been doing some thinking,” they says, and i says, guess there’s a first time for everything. “you’re a real funny dame, sugardoll. reviewing criticism, we’ve determined that the biggest issue with our previous diagnostic and statistic manuals of mental disorders is the anonymity of it all. we’ve been circling around a vague figure of the mentally well without defining the traits of a mentally well person. there’s no personality. what we need is a cute broad with a couple opinions to model the psychological norm.” so i’m saying back up and give it to me straight: i’m the new standard of sanity? can i get that in writing? and they say, “as the american psychiatric association we hereby state that you are the baseline and any deviations from your personality are deviations from the very concept of sanity, at least in the united states psychiatric system.” they’re making it public tomorrow. it’s a nice gig, if you really want to know. never thought they’d let a woman do it.
i'm pregnant... with the next great American novel! [looks directly at you, suddenly serious] and I'm getting an abortion
A problem with the way #OwnVoices got co-opted as a marketing tool is that there’s this implicit assumption that representation by a member of the in-group will always be GOOD representation (i.e., well done, not stereotyped, not bigoted against that group) and this simply isn’t true.
People have internalized biases, of course, but also, members of minority groups often have political reasons for attacking other members of their own minority group. Is “Yiddish isn’t a real language, it’s a hybrid jargon that represents a culture of filth and squalor” antisemitism? Clearly so. Is it still antisemitism when it’s the official language policy of the state of Israel, as it was for awhile? Hmm. Interesting question. It’s certainly SOMETHING unpleasant.
I’ve heard that Justine Larbalestier may have some Jewish heritage yet this doesn’t make me any happier that she published a YA novel whose narrative suggests that Holocaust survivor epigenetics make you into a manipulative psychopath who leeches money off your innocent gentile friends. I don’t think I’d have been happy with that one even if she were the Jewishest woman on earth, actually. My problem with the handful of apparently very Reform or secular authors who’ve written fantasies in which Judaism is the normative religion yet it still looks exactly like a highly assimilated Reform Judaism is clearly WAY less extreme, but it’s still a problem, and I still want them to stop.
People will use “they’re literally X” “it’s OwnVoices” to shut down discussion but I don’t think being a minority absolves you of being thoughtless about how you represent minorities. “Sherlock BBC can’t be homophobic because Mark Gatiss is an ENTIRE gay man 🙄” no it definitely can still be homophobic, and the fact that it is. Is worse 😘
gripping stevebucky tumblr by the shoulders and trying to explain cultural genocide to them and that steve would not speak understand or know gaeilge except for to say slainte and put the emphasis on the si part of banshee instead of the ben and that hearing it would be something akin to if he heard cantonese or somali or esperanto just infinitely more emotionally painful. smiles nicely and walks away but you can see i'm ripping a picture of oliver cromwell into little tiny pieces and muttering it's all your fault it's all your fault
“A curious childbirth practice recorded in the Smolensk and Mogilev provinces, condemned as magical in an early nineteenth-century Old Believer manuscript, appears to be a variety of couvade. In it the husband of a woman in labour had to lie on a shelf above the woman, with a thread tied round his penis. The midwife would jerk the thread to coincide with the woman's birth pangs, thus producing sympathetic cries from above.”
WF Ryan, The Bathhouse At Midnight (History of Magic in Russia)
a deeply underrated part of the gay taylor swift conspiracy theories is that if they're right and she really has spent over a decade sending subliminal messages based on minute details for people to decode then she's uuuuuh. I mean she's insane. she's jigsaw. she's the riddler. her dad bought her career because if she didn't have music to distract her she would have started building deathtraps.
