My toxic trait is that if I find a product I like I want to keep using the same product forever. It's not even brand loyalty. It's called stop changing and discontinuing everything.

Choking is great. But face grabbing? Gripping them by their jaw and squeezing until their mouth is forced open… The way their lips pout up… The feeling of the inside of their cheeks sliding over their teeth…. Look at me…

Everyone needs to stop saying death of the author when what they mean is separating the art from the artist. Like FR stop it.

[penny-anna]

I know it's mainly just ignorance of what the term means but I do wonder if this happens in part bcos 'death of the author' sounds so dramatic like oh this author is dead to me, I don't care about them anymore. Whereas 'separating the art from the artist' is a lot more neutral and well. In CERTAIN CASES it is kind of immediately apparent that you cannot.

[penny-anna]

TO REITERATE:

Death of the Author is a term coined by Roland Barthes for his essay of the same name in 1967.

In brief: death of the author is the concept that analysis of a work of art should not be focused on the artist's intent; the artist's intended reading of their own work is just A reading and no more valid than anyone else's.

A good straightforward example of this in practice is the response to Andy Weir and Project Hail Mary. Weir is adamant that his work contains no politics but I would say that PHM is pretty clearly a story about climate change.

You can apply death of the author to any work of fiction and it has nothing to do with whether the author is a good or bad person.

this was 2009 btw and her defence was that she "didn't know what was on his shirt"

you know. because it's so subtle.

[somecunttookmyurl]

well

if you somehow just didn't notice the shirt i feel like... if you then see the photo your statement would be more on the lines of "i didn't register what he was wearing and i'm horrified. i would absolutely never knowingly and willingly etc etc"

not what is essentially "well i meet loads of people and i don't inspect all their fashion choices"
