Writing Commissions + Moving News

So! I mentioned an announcement earlier today and here it is: Me and My Husband are moving from North Carolina with our good friend so we can live a more independent life. We'll be driving cross-country later this month as well.

We're waiting on his disability payments to come in so we can buy a camper to make our big move, but while we wait, my husband is offering writing commissions!

Money would go to bills, moving costs, feeding our very fluffy cat, getting our car's AC fixed, and finally replacing our 12 year old hybrid battery!

If you're interested in helping out a nonbinary trans dude and his legally blind husband, or just want a piece of writing of your own, we'd really appreciate it. And if you can't help out, a reblog always helps, but there's no pressure.

I find it quite strange that even though Tumblr is known as The Neurodivergence Website, a lot of people on here seem to assume that they're the only neurodivergent person on here, and/or that they're the only person on here who understands The Neurodivergent Experience, so they're quite eager to assume that every post on here was written by someone who's neurotypical and needs to be lectured on The Neurodivergent Experience

really a good tool for any aspiring critic or creator to develop is the ability to ask yourself - and answer honestly! - whether your disdain for something comes from a place of (perceived) wasted potential or bitter anger that anyone else dared to create something less than perfect while you were too paralysed by dissatisfaction to even attempt to do so yourself. because if it's the latter, then you'll save yourself a lot of time and stress in the long run if you start to recognise just how much of what's holding you back is your own insecurity.

Once when I was in undergrad, someone described something as “problematic” in class and our professor was like, “That’s cool, but ‘problematic’ doesn’t really mean anything. It means that the thing you’re describing has a problem, and in and of itself that’s not bad. Art, especially, should always have problems, or else it’s not interesting and not art, either. It sounds like you’re trying to say that this is bad, but you don’t want to say ‘bad.’ Is that right?”

So from then on whenever one of us called something problematic, he would make us talk it out until we could name the “bad” thing we were hinting at. In this particular class, 7/10 it was some type of oppression, and the remainder was like, “I’m uncomfortable because this is very new/confusing/pushing boundaries that made me feel safe.”

Once we stopped calling things “problematic” and stopping at that, class got way more interesting and... we all had to say, like, “that’s racist” or “that’s misogynistic” or “ew capitalism gross” out loud, which a lot of us had never done in a classroom before. Or we had to be like, “Uhhh... I’m not sure what’s so bad?” and confront our own beliefs and that was maybe even more useful.

Anyway. Whenever I see the word problematic, I can’t help but think of this professor being like, “Good starting point, now let’s get specific.” I think when we have to commit to saying “that’s ___” it requires a lot more careful thought about the truth and impact and complexities of whatever we’re claiming. Sometimes there really is some bullshit afoot, and also sometimes it’s art, and it should be full of problems, because that’s what art is.

#'this is present in the text' is often a good first step #but those second and third ones (naming it; describing its function) are vital (via @elucubrare)

I do think the post that's like "when they torture you to insanity and then torture you for being insane 😂🤣" is one of the most succinct and foundational analyses of interpersonal violence and conflict that had ever been written

happy pride month for it/its users, polyamorous people, xenogenders, non-transitioning trans people, and other "weird" identities. btw

[soni-dragon]

[orteil42]
