The Nonary Game

This is my personal blog. I cannot follow you as nonary.  Both she/hers and them/their(s) are fine. I'm in my twenties, physically disabled with anxiety, and working on a library science degree. If you follow me and look like you could be a spam blog, send me a message so I don't block you.

Baby It’s Cold Outside discourse is the same as Macbeth discourse. 

[dont-spoop-yourself]

Explain?

[emilysidhe]

OK, so one of the big debates in Macbeth involves the scene in which Lady Macbeth talks Macbeth into killing King Duncan.  People debate strenuously over whether it’s a scene of Lady M pressuring her reluctant husband into it, or whether it’s a scene of her sensing, due to their emotional intimacy, that this murder is something her husband secretly wants and has partially internally decided to do, and is arguing him into it in order to help him give himself permission to do it, in the same way that people see their loved ones wavering over the dessert menu and jump in with things like, “Go on, get the cheesecake, it’s your birthday!”  Readers and scholars disagree strenuously about this - we even studied an incident in college in which two 18th century illustrators attended the same performance and happened to draw the scene the day after, producing two images that advanced opposite interpretations even though they’d seen the exact same actors do the exact same performance.  It’s a big deal.

In the same way, the Baby, It’s Cold Outside discourse is about whether this is a song about sexual harassment, or whether it’s a woman singing about how she wishes she could spend the night with the guy she just had an excellent date with if only the neighbors wouldn’t talk, and him responding, “Stay, baby, it’s cold out!  No one could expect you to go home in this!”

[ms-demeanor]

I really don’t know (baby stab his side) King Duncan’s a bro (baby cut through his hide) I like him a lot (That decrepit old sot?) This plan ain’t so great (But what a king you’d make!)

The guards might worry (Darling, do it in a hurry!) His sons will rush the door (So knock them on the floor.)

I’m not such a knave (Bash his head with a stave) But I’d be a good king (Now you’re starting to think)

The dukes might all talk (But their chatter means naught) Say, love, what do you mean (You’d make such a king)

I simply must go (baby cut through his hide) There’s a war on you know (baby cut through his hide)

But what of his wife? (And what of his life?) It feels like bad luck (But that don’t mean much)

I’ve got a bad premonition (And I’ve got a mission) But that’s just superstition (My love, you’re a vision)

The witches said I’d rule (If they lied they were cruel) So baby let’s stab Stab his siiiiide!

like anyone else i hate to do this

i have a cool five (5) cavities in my mouth that need filling, i found out this week. the worst cavity is in my front tooth and hyper visible (as well as causing me pain), so i need to get it fixed so i can look for better paying work that doesn’t also stress my knee, which likely has a torn mcl that i currently can’t afford to have treated. and while my fiancee is helping me with some of the cost of the dental work, i need help with the rest. 

part of the reason this cost is so unbearable is because i have been saving for a better apartment, without which i won’t be able to live with my fiancee. my lease is up at the end of november, which is very soon. i cannot dip into my savings for this, and my savings are still not high enough to cover the projected cost of leasing a 2br apartment in nyc. 

i’m looking to raise at least $300. i have an etsy shop with hair accessories and jewelry here. i have a ko-fi for my etsy shop here. i have shoes for sale on ebay here. otherwise my paypal is paypal.me/softurl 

if you can’t donate or don’t want to, please reblog! and thank you either way! 

[softurl]

i had my first of three appointments today, and i stopped to have a talk with the receptionist about the estimated cost to double check. i don’t understand what changed, but i asked for a copy of the document he had and the short story is that this work is probably going to cost much more than i anticipated, especially with the massiveness of my front tooth cavity that got fixed today. 

in addition to everything i listed off in my original post above, my medical insurance payments are going up because the insurance company i’ve had this year is closing, and the new options offered at work are both more expensive. i have tried to make extra money faster by offering some of my wares to a local shop for wholesale, but i haven’t heard back, so it may be a no-go. 

in light of everything, i am now looking to raise $1000. i am so humbled and grateful for everyone who’s donated to or purchased from me so far, and to everyone who’s reblogged and made my post so visible. i haven’t hit my original goal yet but i’m hopeful. 

to reiterate, i have an etsy shop with hair accessories and jewelry here. i have a ko-fi for my etsy shop here. i have shoes for sale on ebay here. otherwise my paypal is paypal.me/softurl 

thank you no matter what!

[softurl]

donations have stopped and i haven’t quite hit my original goal yet. my lease is up next month so i will have to begin looking for a new place to live in just a few weeks. i am incredibly stressed, and scared, and angry at myself. i don’t want anyone to feel like they must donate, but every dollar counts, so please consider a small amount, especially if you’ve enjoyed any of the fan content i’ve put out over the years. thank you!

 My favourite thing about the whole ‘no man of woman born’ thing is that it applies to a very broad church.

 For example:

 People born via c-section (no man of woman born, meaning natural childbirth, aka, the Shakespeare approach)

 Women (no man of woman born, aka, the Tolkein approach)

 Non-binary types (see above)

 Aliens (no man of woman born, with the meaning of man being in the ‘mankind’ sense)

Artificial intelligences (see above again)

Transmen (no man of woman born, the man-ness appears to come later as gender is a social construct. Arguably borderline, I know.)

People carried by a man (no man of woman born)

People grown in vats (no man of woman born)

 Basically, anyone who isn’t a human cisgendered male delivered via natural childbirth by a woman could kill Macbeth. (Given the equipment via science!, the child of a transwoman born via natural childbirth would still count as unable to.)

 It’s odd that you can divide mankind into ‘Macbeth killers’ and everyone else, even though everyone else is in the minority, especially if aliens are real and we create AIs capable of murdering Scottish kings.

[captainlordauditor]

there are two genders: macbeth killers and macbeth

i’m glad to see all the notes this post has gotten! if you could keep the reblogs going, i would really appreciate it. i need to start saving for an MRI (and all related doctor visits) on top of saving to move. even with insurance, the medical treatment i’m seeking will be hundreds of dollars. (america!) help me out and look good doing it!! and thank you!

[softurl]

i have some new items up in the shop!

i’ve made a sale, and i’m super grateful! i just really want to push the visibility on this so i can make progress toward getting my MRI. thank you to everyone who’s reblogged so far!

Not my personal aesthetic, but they are lovely and you should support @softurl, a most excellent person and friend whose excellence unfortunately does not extend to their knee.

here’s an idea: notice toxic trends in your behavior and, idk, change them

[cptsdwillgraham-deactivated2019]

the fact that people are complaining on this post that they can’t change their behaviors that hurt others because they have x mental illness and We Can’t All Be Neurotypical Karen is absolutely fucking wild. do you realize your arguments have come full circle to being indistinguishable from the most crude, generic “mentally ill people are inherently dangerous and/or abusive” ableist rhetoric? you always have the agency to address the ways in which you are hurting others (or yourself). maybe not instantly. maybe not effortlessly. but it IS within your abilities and it is something you owe to your community and yourself
