#episteme

[gayhorrorgeek]

I just realized, halfway through outlining chapter 8 of my bloodmary fic, that because I decided to set the phm side of this AU in the early 1920s I have got to have Ryland deal with internalized homophobia before the bloodymary-ing can even happen.

(Simon, on the other hand, is just chill at having someone be kind to him and not a hallucination, so that's something.)

episteme — knowledge or understanding.

in the context of Foucault: the underlying framework that defines the conditions of possibility for knowledge in a particular historical period. not just about what people know, but about the rules and structures that determine how they come to know it. each era has its own episteme that governs the production of knowledge (e.g., think of how differently we understand biology, economics, or linguistics compared to those in the 18th century). these frameworks operate beneath the surface, often unconsciously guiding what is considered valid knowledge.

shapes the discourse of the time, influencing language, concepts, and categories used in various fields of study. helps us recognize what we consider "truth" or "knowledge" is not universal or timeless, but instead shaped by historical and cultural contexts

thinking about Episteme... thinking about the way that both Sam and Desi met (fought) each other a decade prior... thinking about the way that both of them were driven by what they did because of their families. thinking about how i cannot. articulate this correctly at all

How I Manage my personal AO3 e-library Archive

Download everything I want/hope to read in EPUB format. I try to anyways... if I notice I got too many tabs open on my browser, time to download If multi-chapter remember first to press 'Entire Work' and then 'Download'

I am terrible at remembering book titles that's why I do the covers ; I find I can better recall the story with an image.

2. I got two folders on my phone [remember to keep a backup copy and a backup of that backup with some regularity] One folder is essentially my 'To Be Read' & another one for the books I'm working on aka. currently reading and am collecting art pieces that I think would work as a cover.

The main reason why I use folders instead of an app is because backups are easier to keep this way.

KEEP REGULAR BACKUPS OF YOUR BACKUP I have managed to accidentally damage/lose/delete files and folders fill with books and comics from ao3 i collected for years that i never managed to recovered. I still feel grief over this.

3. Calibre [a computer program] is where my e-books live in my computer and keep track of them with little stickers.

3. To read I use Episteme on my phone. The main feature of this app allows for ✧ in-app annotations✧

4. ✧ in-app annotations✧ to me is like writing in the margins which i need so i can provide enrichment to glorious magnificent authors , that share their passion with us for free. This annotation go to the comment section of each chapter and all other musing and words of worship as well.

i use the blockquote when posting.

something like this...

looks like this when posted

5. I use Quillpad (android app) to keep a collection of Kaomoji. I prefer Kaomoji because they look the same for everyone depending on your device / operative system emojis look different , which grinds my gears is simpler for expressing my silliness to the authors.

6. I use SquidgeWorld Archive to host my covers to Ao3.

I think that's all I can think of sharing on this topic. I am open to questions and adding things to this post with visual aid and whatever I can do to help , do let me know.

Keeping a copy of books safe and easy to find KEEP BACKUPS OF YOUR BACKUPS I'll keep updating this if there is anything to update, thanks for reading I hope is helpful.

«El antiguo ideal científico de la epistēmē —de un conocimiento absolutamente seguro y demostrable— ha demostrado ser un ídolo. La petición de objetividad científica hace inevitable que todo enunciado científico sea provisional para siempre: sin duda, cabe corroborarlo, pero toda corroboración es relativa a otros enunciados que son, a su vez, provisionales. Sólo en nuestras experiencias subjetivas de convicción, en nuestra fe subjetiva, podemos estar “absolutamente seguros”».
