To be frank, it wouldn’t matter if it were written in 2026.

I’m tired of the narrative that queer art with transgressive, complicated characters is only acceptable because the state of the world was so bad in the 70s or 80s, like “sure it’s not good by today’s standards but that’s all we had!”

Fuck that!

Sometimes you don’t want squeaky clean, buttoned up inspirational “representation”. Sometimes you want to get a little fucked up! Sometimes you want a psychosexual horror where a transexual alien that defies your norms and understanding shakes-a-you-up and forces you to confront what it’s possible for you to be or want, where fear and revulsion and desire and your very sense of self are violently beat together, leaving you forever changed. That’s as true in 2026 as it was in 1973, and I fear we have lost that understanding which used to be practically instinctual for queers.

Queer people should make queer art irrespective of whether the queer characters in it are “good representation” or everything in it would be okay to happen if it were real life.

That’s not “problematic”. That’s fiction.

If you’re asking whether Frank-N-Furter is “good representation”, you fundamentally misunderstand Rocky Horror; you are trying to force Frank to fulfill a role he fundamentally does not exist to fulfill, and putting Rocky Horror in a box it exists to transcend.

We need to stop limiting what queer art is and can be.

haw'akadi gyaawksu - i never left. sticker design for july!

on life during youth, growing apart and relative distance as an adult, and longing, inspired by the life cycle of salmon. born in the river, out to the ocean, and then back to the river. in the design, the salmon eggs are close and shrouded in darkness (proximity and safety); the adult salmon however are at the edges, facing away and toward the light (distance and exposure). the adults also have spawning phase colours, which to me makes this a hopeful statement - what is gone can come back. right?

Outsiders are not not saving a language by learning it.

While I’m personally grateful services like Tribalingual exist, creating some academic access to Indigenous languages, particularly for Indigenous diaspora (if they can afford it), I’m extremely dubious of the notion that a outsiders learning an Indigenous language is somehow “saving” it. There was a testimonial from some white American girl learning Ainu itak, and she spoke of it as if she were collecting some rare Pokemon card before it went out of print or something, framing it in typical dying Native rhetoric. What is she going to do with Ainu itak, except as some obscure lingual trophy?

If you want to save a language, save the people.

Language means nothing without history and culture breathing life into it, and in turn we are disconnected from our history and ancestors without it. Support Indigenous quality of life, ACCESS to quality education, quality health services (mental and physical), land and subsistence rights, CLEAN DRINKING WATER, advocate against police brutality and state violence, DEMAND ACTION FOR MISSING AND MURDERED INDIGENOUS WOMEN.

Damn, if you really want to “save the language” pay for an Indigenous person’s classes for them to reconnect to their mother tongues. I’m not saying outsiders shouldn’t learn languages they’re invited to learn, but don’t pretend like you learning conversational Ainu itak is saving it from extinction.
