like if I can be honest it's kind of foul how every time there's a post On Here asking for art made by women some jokers show up unprompted in the rbs to go "and also here's some nonbinary people!" like okay 1.) that's not what we're talking about. and 2.) like it's very transparent which nonbinary people they feel the need to bring up on posts about women For Some Reason. no one ever seems to spontaneously feels the need to bring up George M. Johnson or Danez Smith as important nonbinary people to include on posts about women.

you, reading this. you're a creature now. reblog to creature your followers

this creature is you

sometimes people experiencing psychosis and/or mania will come up to you on the street and talk in confusing or upsetting ways. your job is to either have a regular human-to-human conversation with that person or politely leave. your job is not to call 911. do not call 911. you might kill that person if you call 911.

stop. analyse that text through the lens of its author's intentions and original historical context. okay now take the author out back and kill them dead and analyse that text as though it were published by your mutual yesterday and is in direct conversation the contemporary discourse that's most relevant to your life. okay now pick your favorite angle of interpretation and come up with the strongest possible argument against it. now imagine that the text is your best friend and that it means you well and that you naturally give it every benefit of the doubt because you're on its side and you want the best for it. now imagine that the text wants you dead and it'll eat you if you don't eat it first. now pretend that you found this text locked away in a cave with no evidence of when or where it came from and you have to divine its meaning solely through its internal coherence and nothing else. okay now address the elephant in the room aspect of the text you've been ignoring because you find it boring or confusing or uncomfortable and become the number one expert on it. now spend forty minutes assigning all the characters dnd classes with at least three sentences of reasoning each. okay now do the cha cha slide.
