step one: replace entire personality with open, festering wound

step two: contort absolutely all stimuli in my environment to relate to the my wound in some manner, ideally one which justifies random acts of unbridled aggression and vengeance

step three: marry a girl with generational wealth

A young girl with colorful hair and remarkable intuition recently barged into my office and declared that she's fully aligned with our principles and wishes to join our cause. It so happens I have an experimental mech prototype in development that would be perfect for her, but her upbringing and attitude suggest she knows nothing of the horrors of war, and while she has protagonist potential, because of her gender I suspect she will die early as a component of some tragedy. What should I do?

Shit man, this psychic war is fucked. I just saw a guy clap his hands together and say "tormented inner world: roiling desert" or some similar shit, and everything in five blocks turned into a screaming sandstorm that ripped people's fucking skin off. the camera didn't even go onto him, that's how common shit like this is. my ass is using Hound blood frag grenades and i can only handle one protective talisman without dying. I think I just heard "In the Court, Air is Sharp" two groups over. I gotta get the fuck outta here.

gambling with angels is easy. they can't lie but they have addictive personalities; it's easy to clean them out then make them divulge secrets about the business of heaven to call your bets. my dad used to say "hey, watch this" and summon angels to play poker with him with a sort of bone flute he inherited from his grandpa, and they'd be holding horseshit and still want to call him. i'm talking "raise on a two pair" level bad at it, but they couldn't stop trying to win. my dad taught me all the secret names of God before i was out of grade school and i would use them to curse my enemies so they came down with leprosy. you can cure leprosy these days but it still sucks, especially for a child. but they had it coming for pissing me off

the puppygirl article is a reminder to us all; using labor value calculations while vent-writing about your awful ex in your notes app is a little embarrassing, but it's actually much more embarrassing to post it as if you're writing Theory.

okay because this post is getting some momentum i do feel that i should clarify something. to the extent that the post *is* about her personal experiences with an abusive partner, and is engaging in venting about those experiences, and is about noticing this kind of dynamic, it's a totally unobjectionable essay. i think a lot of the hate against the article and tara is basically exaggerated and unfair. having been in these kind of dynamics, i felt some catharsis reading the piece, and i can only imagine that she got a lot writing the piece. that's a good thing. i think the essay just shouldn't have moved into the theoretical register, or otherwise should have done so differently. i think this relationship dynamic reproduces itself in all sorts of gender distributions, and so fixating on the aesthetic characteristics of this particular trans woman and trying to paint her as of a kind with a bunch of men is not particularly helpful. it is also not helpful to say that she is masquerading as having the feminized labor position when in fact she isn't. i get the aim here but it just misses the mark.

to the extent that we can say something interesting about who is particularly likely to engage in this sort of abuse in polycule situations (and/or get away with it), it isn't that they are trans women with particular aesthetics. the people who are most likely to do this are people who are privileged on other dimensions, it's white people, it's men, it's tme people, it's people with more wealthy class backgrounds, etc.

all of the biographical details about the character's kinks, their attire, their comportment, this is totally understandable to go into if the post is about articulating one's own experience with an abusive partner. it is slightly irresponsible when it's supposed to be providing a theoretical apparatus which applies more generally. i don't think trying to make An Archetype is an especially useful way of going about the task here, but to the extent that we are doing that, we really need to make sure that extraneous stuff doesn't make its way into the characterization of the archetype.

this alll said, i do think my original post was a little flippant and i do feel a bit bad about that. for whatever it is worth, i am sorry for that. it's mostly coming from a place of self depreciation because im the sort of person who would also vent using labor value calculations. anyway sending love to tara thru this unjustified dogpile, where, as is often the case, legitimate criticism is used as a cover for harassment.
