Reader. Listener. Watcher. Writer.

I like horror, sci-fi, fantasy and all kinds of speculative fiction. I also love to talk culture, art, ufology, parapsychology, paleontology and more.

I love gay sex and overwrought artsy things about traumatizing events. Mostly runs on a queue.

And it’s not even always not including it at all but it’s softening it and making it less impactful and less central and less challenging like oh you can be sexually harassed, or groped, or even raped but after a certain point you’re just too fucked up to fit into this cute found family fic about teenagers hanging out at a strip mall or whatever, as if you can’t hang out at a strip mall if you’re too fucked up! Idkkkk

The Mirror-Faced Grim Reaper in Meshes of the Afternoon (1943), dir. Maya Deren, Alexander Hammid

“This film is endowed with an acute sense of restlessness and alienation; reflecting this uncanny estrangement in the doubling, tripling and quadrupling of its central character, and in its cyclic narrative, a structure that seems condemned to repetition. Why is the hooded Death figure constructed as a kind of mirror? Are we dealing with Nietzsche’s notion of ‘eternal return’? (…) You could go on forever about the meaning buried in this particular work. It invites and eludes analysis.” – CINEMA AND DREAM-LOGIC IN MESHES OF THE AFTERNOON

The best trans feminine representation on screen that I've seen that was *intentional* is Delenn from Babylon 5. Yes, despite the fact she's not textually a trans woman - she was actually meant to be a trans woman and she was written as if she was a trans woman from season 2 onwards. She has to deal with bigotry for who she is from her family, she has difficulty with living as who she is now until the women around her help her and teach her, she has to deal with so much from the people around her in terms of outright hatred and disrespect despite the fact that in the first season, she's one of the most powerful people in her society.

She only wasn't textually a trans woman because they didn't cast a trans woman (a little cowardly, but it *was* the 90's) and the tech the SFX they were trying to do in order to make her "male" for the first season just didn't work on their budget. So, instead, they wrote her dealing with transmisogyny in effect during the show, the subtext is that she's an intentional trans allegory.

She is also, in the show, one of the most important characters, she commands respect, affection, love, and authority among those who don't hate her for her transition, and she eventually overcomes that as well.

I love her and I love the way she's treated by the show. It's one of my favourite shows for a reason. It's a detriment that she's not textually a trans woman, but she *is* a trans woman in all the ways that matter.

I should also point out that JMS, the show's creator and nearly sole writer on the show, said that he wrote her *specifically* to be a trans allegory. He also worked with the Wachowski sisters on Sense8 after B5.

I love how there are so many research articles out there — that are backed up by licensed experts and actual victims/survivors — that prove creative writing, including dark fiction, can help a lot of victims and survivors heal from their trauma (not all, obviously, but it works for a lot of people) but there are still some random people on the internet who are like “actually no I support victims and survivors, because I’m such a good person, but if they heal in a way that I personally do not approve of then I am gonna shame them and call them predators. like why would they do that especially without my permission ewww disgusting”
