Foul Murder

cheaphalloweencostume

not to get too deep on main but did anyone else have such deeply rooted issues with their self worth for so long that they thought as a kid/teen that their only redeeming feature was being “low maintenance” and now as an adult you give yourself guilt pangs asking for any more than the barest minimum in virtually any relationship because asking for things might negate your only good quality which is just “doesn’t ask for things”

it’s endlessly amusing that Corkus always seems to appear in Guts’s friend flashbacks

Hmm

Better to buy a Switch so I can play DP2 when it comes out, or better to wait for a PS4 version to be released?

This is the question that matters

There’s an artist on Japanese deviantart who just draws pictures of Jotaro Kujo as an owl and it’s the greatest thing ever

Yeah “het ships are boring” but let’s not shit on het ships w/ trans people, black women, fat people, disabled women, and other groups that have been treated as “unloveable” by culture at large in preference for a ship between two white pretty boys.

let’s not forget: a ship consisting of two bisexual people of different genders is not a “het ship” thank you for coming to my ted talk

bullyfemme

A ship consisting of even one bisexual person between two people of different genders isnt het either! Bi ppl are not het and cannot enter het relationships and their experiences and attractions to different genders are fundamentally different than straight people’s. That’s why I didn’t mention them in my original post! You are so right.

Are you seriously saying that heterosexual people’s relationships are less valid/interesting/important than queer people’s? You do realize that for decades now our movement has been about getting people to recognize the fact that ALL CONSENSUAL LOVE IS EQUAL AND VALID, right? This sort of shit threatens to undermine the mainstream acceptance that we queer people have finally started to receive for the first time in human history.

We don’t need to invalidate the experiences of others in order to elevate/validate our own. Doing that just turns us into the very people we fought against.

Condemning/mocking/deriding people who love differently than we do is absolutely wrong for anyone to do and is unacceptable in any context. Full fucking stop.

Personal Update

Hey, so I haven’t abandoned the fandom. Sorry I disappeared for a while. I’ve been sick with some mystery illness that doctors thought was pneumonia at first. But then I got a CT scan and it’s not that. They now think it’s bronchitis on top of possibly undiagnosed asthma, because whatever it is has been making me super tired all the time and short of breath for like moving/walking around. So, now I have a bunch of follow-up appointments to see what’s up with me, since the ER came up with nothing.

Anyway, I’ll be back to writing soon, sorry that I’ve been out of commission for a while. The Valentine’s Day story is almost done and then I’ll be back to working on “Confirmed Bachelors.”

Thanks again to everyone for all of your support!

Deadly Premonition 2 WHEN?

a ‘stop trump’ reading list

I’ve seen one list going around but it consists mainly of books, which may be time-consuming or unavailable for some folks, and our ability to share them far and wide is limited. I compiled this list of online articles available for free plus archive.org links. Check on the notes if you save this link as I may occasionally reblog it to add articles that fit.

“Ur-Fascism” by Umberto Eco [mirror link] - an essential description of what fascism looks like.

“Autocracy: Rules for Survival” by Masha Gessen [mirror link] - avoiding complacency and deceit.

“Forget ‘Why,’ It’s Time to Get to Work” by Anil Dash [mirror link] - activism and consistency

“Don’t Let Anyone Tell You It’ll Be Okay” by Craig Martin [mirror link] - a very important debunking of all the rationalization going on around us.

“A madman has been given the keys to the surveillance state” by Cory Doctorow [mirror link] - a good reminder of why, even if all you do is talk to your niece on Facebook, we need to protect our digital freedom.

“No, We Won’t Calm Down” by Robothugs [mirror link] - how to avoid shutting out our marginalized allies, and how to recognize when someone is doing it to you

“The White Flight of Derek Black” by Eli Saslow [mirror link] - a powerful read on what it takes for a person to leave white nationalism behind.

“How to Help the Cause When You Need Help Yourself” by Carrie Cutforth [mirror link] - helpful reminders for activists with chronic illnesses or mental health issues. Read Spoon Theory, too, if you haven’t, for a helpful framework.

“On Arguing with the Upper Class” by The Coquette [mirror link] - why arguing with your friends on Facebook isn’t activism and it isn’t like what happened to Derek Black.

spiteswallow

“A People’s History of the Third Reich” by Megan Carpentier [mirror link] - on collective responsibility and commonplace evil.

This post on fascist tactics from @smarmyanarchist [mirror link] - how to identify white supremacist bullshit and engage with it effectively.

anarcho-smarmyism

um this is tight as fuck everybody read it!!!

copperbadge

I skimmed through these (I’d read some of them before) so if you want a quick takeaway:

The White Flight of Derek Black is excellent reading if you feel like you need some hope.

Ur-Fascism provides a lot of historical context to modern fascism.

How to Help the Cause When You Need Help Yourself is a GREAT resource for people who feel like they can’t possibly do everything they want to, and who feel limited by disability, physical or neurological.

On Arguing with the Upper Class is a short, concise, useful single-punch if you feel like you can’t handle anything deep or long today.

The post on fascist tactics is for if you really want to get mad and start some shit.

I mean sure, but stopping Trump will require more than reading treatises and history. I’d more recommend reading the Supreme Court opinions concerning Watergate.
