The New American Gothic (2017) by Criselda Vasquez
From Criselda Vasquez's Instagram (3 April 2026):
Hi everyone, Thank you for taking the time to read this. On Tuesday, March 31,⌠Jorge V needs your support for Help Bring My Father Home
so. i just learned that my entirely me-written resume flags as being AI-written by automated HR systems for a few writing quirks and the fact that i followed all the rules of good resume writing, which is apparently a telltale sign of AI use in this fucking hellworld. i've been desperately applying to jobs that i am massively overqualified for for months with no response, not even an interview, and now i find out that at least part of the reason is because some fucking moron decided that following the rules every career advisor has given me for a decade means i cheated and should be disqualified. the ai bubble cannot pop soon enough. what the actual fuck.
"frequent use of action-result sentences. bullet points all start with action verbs. no career gaps." girl what the fuck are you talking about. that's just resume writing advice being followed. i just did what i was told. it's a fucking resume. you're supposed to do all that stuff. what the fuck do you mean it looks ai generated and wouldn't pass basic detection systems?????????? for following the resume writing rules????????????
wishing every AI bro and ceo a very [REDACTED]
sending my love to everyone in public who talks loud / laughs loud / plays music out loud / is "taking up too much space" or "loitering" / having a mental health episode / yelling "for no reason" etc
people are mean as fuck about this kind of thing but none of it is actually harmful
this this this this + double this if youre a person of color
psychotic people "talking to themselves" in public ily and was you

I have been telling people for years that the company behind Pokemon Go had no-shit, for-realsies ties to the CIA and people never really took it that seriously. Anyway.

discussion about right wing radicalisation focuses near-exclusively on men becoming white nationalists but i wonder how it might manifest elsewhere. like, imagine a heavily online subculture of mostly women and they're dedicated to rooting out degeneracy, maintaining a rigid social order, refusing to acknowledge scientific consensus, being violently paranoid of a dehumanised other, adhering to exclusively eurocentric standards of beauty and politically dedicated to exterminating a minority group (possibly one that was already historically targeted for genocide). that'd be fuckin crazy lol
normal thing you say to complete strangers when your brain isn't cooked ^_^
It's amazing how you made a post saying radfems are just like nazis, and then someone went into the comments to call you a slur to prove it.
bro i LOVE indigenous fusion music i love it when indigenous people take traditional practices and language and apply them in new cool ways i love the slow decay and decolonisation of the modern music industry
I WILL !!! I WILL DO THAT
some of my favourite indigenous artists, in no particular order:
Inuit artists:
the jerry cans (esp their album Inuusiq)
beatrice deer
twin flames
MÄori artists:
jordyn with a why
Indigenous australian artists:
tilly tjala thomas (i particularly love ngai yurlku nhiina)
kardajala kirridarra (srlsly check out ngajabu (Grandmother's Song))
i've also heard good things abt Baker Boy, but i haven't checked out his stuff yet
Another one for Inuit artists is Piqsiq! Two sisters whoâve been doing traditional throat singing since they were kids. They make some really gorgeous, eerie, atmospheric stuff. Highly recommend watching this video of them performing live a cappella using a looping machine, because they might be the coolest people on the planet actually
(Jo March nearly in tears voice) women,,,,
For anyone into North Asian and Central Asian folk music, there's this incredible Siberian folk-pop band called Otyken! The group is mostly women and they're from multiple indigenous groups in Siberia, with songs being sung in their range of different languages. They're so much fun and their music videos are amazing!
i'll go ahead and recommend The Halluci Nation (formerly known as A Tribe Called Red), an EDM group from First Nations Ontario that do really cool fusions of First Nations music with dubstep, moombahton, and hip hop.
I really really really appreciate people who share videos on posts like these, because almost without a doubt every time I love the music but Iâve never got the spoons to click on links and look through a bunch of music or worse google the artist I always end up too overwhelmed to start and I hate that
Haven't seen Belle Sisoski here yet so here we go: she's the current Artist of Year for BURO impact Awards. She's from Malaysia and knows how to play an insane amount of ethnic instruments and mixes them with her own voice. She does covers and her own songs, mixes ethnic instruments with Techno and shows the process. And she's also a live DJ at 19!
And one of her own:
Oh and of course there's also the HU and Bloodywood for people who like more rock and metal mixed in:
1876 is a Pow Wow punk rock band from Portland, Oregon
Alien Weaponry is an awesome MÄori metal band
Darkaside is a Papuan metal band
Shepherds Reign is a Samoan metal band
Ts'msyen (pacific northwest coast) black metal
I also want to recommend King Stingray here! They describe their work as YolĹu surf rock
Lenin Tamayo, Quechua pop singer.
And of course I can't not add Mari Boine (SĂĄmi) to a post like this:
And Arvvas, who I think have moved on to other things but did mashups of SĂĄmi traditional singing and jazz:
The 56-year-old Haitian asylum seeker struggled to receive timely medical care, according to Arizona officials
Emmanuel Damas, murdered by ICE and by all the USAmericans who just accept that their country is running concentration camps, who see ICE raids as a city by city problem.
Tooth infection ... Gods damn it all ...
This is one of the more heinous ways let someone dieâto kill someone through gross negligenceâbecause the pain (and the infection) spread through the nerves in your jaw to up behind your temple. Meaning it goes directly into your brain. The ache (toothache and headache) is constant and in your face. Literally, it is inside your face. So you can't ignore it and disassociate from it the way you can with pain anywhere else in your body. Also, you can't eat or drink without renewed agony. As a result, you suffer and starve and burn with fever over the course of days or even weeks.
To say ICE murdered him by negligence is selling it short. No, ICE *tortured this man to death* by negligence.
And some *basic* antibiotics would've at least kept him from dying! Heck, some *basic* dentistry would've cured his whole problem! Think about that: these ICE butchers let a man who complained of worsening toothache *over the course of two weeks* spent unlawfully imprisoned for no crime ... because they couldn't be bothered to take him to even a prison dentist!
Tortured. To death. By negligence.
saw this on pinterest but i think it belongs here too
this will never not be important

WHATEVR you do donât think about how Stephâs rampant self worth issues (which cause a lot of her other issues) r being fueled not just how often sheâs repeatably being demeaned and/or invalidated as a vigilante but also the years and years of internalized misogynistic messaging that sheâs been subject to her whole life, just as a civilian. As an 11 yr old who was groomed and nearly molested, who was told she was making things up, who explicitly states it took literal years to unlearn the idea it was her fault, as a 15 yr old who calls herself fat and disgusting during her pregnancy, who insinuates sheâd understand if her boyfriend cheated because of that, who is textually judged as a bad influence on Tim because of her pregnancy, who assumes one of her only friends will think of her as a bad person when she tells her about it, as a 16 yr old hearing âyou hit like a girlâ from a hero who sheâs been trying everything to impress, it only pushing her to try harder, to hit harder, like if she works hard enough and fast enough and good enough she can undo how âbadâ she is already, how much sheâs failed as person just bc sheâs failed at meeting the standards of what a âgoodâ girl is supposed to be. Do you get it. She thinks sheâs a terrible person forever. And itâs so intertwined w misogyny it canât be unraveled or separated.
not to be a joyless hag but I've started seeing genderbent "yuri" shipping Markiplier and Ryan Gosling and I can't help but think of someone I recently I unfollowed for posting that they have an easier time caring about genderbent versions of boy characters than regular fictional women
and I'm also building some connections to that post I made about reading books by Black women (you know the one) and the people who would respond by saying something akin to "joke's on you, I only read fanfic đ" as if that were some kind of clever loophole and not a demonstration of the exact thing I was talking about
like yes fandom is about fun or whatever but idk man at what point has your desire for no thoughts head empty uncritical consumption left you splashing around in something that's been blended down to an indistinguishable goo for the sake of avoiding anything remotely challenging. with the thing that's "challenging" here being. you know. giving a shit about women and Black people and like frankly anyone but your shippable white men (and honorary Markiplier).
don't make me tap the five year old teen vogue article, etc
All experiences of escapism are not created equally.
there is no single argument against including trans women in sports that doesn't boil down to "women aren't supposed to be good at this" and it's fucking insane to me that every woman in the world isn't up in arms about the way this issue has laid institutional misogyny bare to the bone
then again it has also revealed how many misogynistic cis women believe in their own exceptionalism to the point they feel they benefit from "women aren't supposed to be good at this" and will use every tool in the white imperial torture kit to ensure the acceptable categories of 'woman' and 'good' remain shallow and narrow enough for them to force themselves into a position of supremacy.
This is one of the funniest things I've found on tumblr and I've seen some shit
While still in school, my clinical psych professor, a guy I respect a lot, did give us a lecture about this attitude as it is becoming more and more prevalent unfortunately. He said you will inevitably work with people you do not want to work with in your training. You can go on to choose your clients later on but you WILL be expected to have this skill and even exceed at it. Yes, even predators. Yes even offenders. Yes even âthoseâ people who scare you. You will train in prisons. You will train in hospitals. Working with difficult clients is unavoidable. You absolutely must learn to do it. If you cannot, then stop wasting your time and switch majors now
If academic psychology had any teeth this person would not make it beyond year 1. Unfortunately it doesnât. Itâs a field with rampant historical racism, eugenics, and pseudoscience. Thatâs how people like the person who wrote those tags make it so far despite being completely unqualified to counsel a single baked bean
âI want to be a proctologist but I donât want to touch butts.â âI want to be a mortician but I donât want to deal with corpses.â
How, pray, is âpsychologist only for people who have nothing wrong with themâ supposed to work?

It's always hard reading about the violence committed to steal America, but the buffalo is always like... That's some inhuman shit. Everyone is burning in hell for that one. Wdym there were thirty to sixty MILLION buffalo in 1800, and by 1900 there were only 300 left. THREE HUNDRED. Do you know, can you fathom the amount of purposeful cruelty required to kill NINETY NINE PERCENT of a population of an animal, just to spite and murder the living Native people who existed and thrived with them? All this, for White Power and Entitlement?? Sickening.
Like I'm not Native so I obviously do not have any official say on things. So don't quote me. But like... Why you have to kill the buffalo too đ if you was really that racist, you're still a terrible person. You coulda just killed me. But you gone kill a whole population of the buffalo too... For what? Just a sheer waste of life and resources, all to claim that you're a Superior Being. Go to hell đ
"I don't want to read this" is totally valid.
"This is disgusting to me" is totally valid.
"I don't want to read this because it is disgusting to me" is totally valid.
"I don't think anyone should be allowed to read or write this because it is disgusting to me" is authoritarian.
"I don't think anyone should be allowed to read or write this because it is disgusting to me" is authoritarian.
Bro, blocking someone and then using their tag like this is, all offence, weak as fuck. Like all you had to say was, na bro I don't promote pedo protags on this here blog, because I wholly agree with the premise of your argument given contexts (i.e., writing abusive relationships to show the evils, great; writing abusive relationships to show the romance, yikes).
This response is so, so comically shitty within the context of that tag, oh my god.
"I don't think anyone should be allowed to read or write this because it is disgusting to me" is authoritarian.
"I don't think anyone should be allowed to read or write this because it is disgusting to me" is authoritarian.
"Censorship of some topics in fiction and art is good and I would be happy if it were to be enacted in a way I approved of"
and
"some things should be banned from ever being written or read about in fiction"
are both authoritarian viewpoints to hold and express, even if you don't have the power to enact them.
If you hold these viewpoints you are holding authoritarian viewpoints.
DUDE ITâS PEDO FICS EVERYBODY THINKS THEYâRE NASTY
Let me explain this to you in simple terms.
Something being nasty is not a good reason to ban fiction about it.
If we accept that "something being nasty is a good reason to bad fiction about it" then we give a foot in the door for all the people who truly, genuinely believe that queer people are nasty to ban all queer literature.
This is not about defending bad people this is about defending the freedom of good people from tyranny, you moron.
I think if you take it to its logical extreme. Say, banning people from writing stories of sexual abuse. That could then be said "well ANY talk about sexual abuse is bad."
And from that, you could ban books that talk about it irl. Or books like how to recover after being abuse. If its not something to be discussed AT ALL.
The fact that Iâve seen this post in some form on my dash like 100x and each time thereâs new idiots who do not get that you canât have *some* censorship.
Either youâre for it or you arenât.
The moment you agree that something should never, ever exist in fiction is the moment that anything can be banned.
Remember a while back how Tumblr banned a bunch of tags, including many popular innocuous ones that even people who are for censorship used and were upset about?
When censorship happens, stuff YOU like can and will be banned. Thatâs how it works.
Remember how a bunch of people had their accounts terminated here only last year for writing about their own sexual abuse?
When you ban âpedoâ topics, say, any talk of child sexual abuse in any form, that means people can no longer write about their own experiences. It means people cannot educate others so they can learn how to protect themselves or get help from these situations.
Censorship is authoritarian. Full stop.
Even if âeveryoneâ agrees something is âgrossâ and âshouldnât exist,â that does not fucking matter.
Do you know who generally believes queer people are gross and shouldnât exist??
The same people who are banning books left and right solely because they have queer characters or relationships.
The same people who attack and kill queer folk for simply exisiting.
This is not just some fandom matter or a case of being chronically online.
Protecting freedom of expression is essential, and if you do not get that, I donât know what to say to you.
And the people who keep bringing up child sex abuse as a reason for censorship are doing it very specifically because everyone feels like then they HAVE to agree with the person in favor of censorship.
Itâs not that there isnât widespread societal agreement on this. Itâs that they want you backed into a rhetorical corner where you feel compelled to agree with them.
Also, like, we KNOW how this shit shakes out in fandom because it's happened before.
In 2007, Livejournal capitulated to the "pedophilia and sex crimes!" cries of (hate group) Warriors 4 Innocence, and you know what communities got shut down? Slashfic communities. Sexual assault survivor support communities. Authors who'd written non-smut m/m fic even got caught up in it. It was DEVASTATING to fandom spaces. I think pretty much everyone knew at least one person whose account was literally DELETED, or were a member of a community that was wiped off the map because they were considerate enough to include topics like "sexual assault" or "BDSM" in the profiles under the badly-named category of "interests" to indicate that posts on said blogs or communities may include discussion of things like that. Even if it was for a SUPPORT group. And it was because a group of religious bigots came to LJ and said essentially "EVERYONE thinks it's gross and that it's promoting CSA, we should ban it."
Like, strikethrough and boldthrough were a large part of what propelled AO3 out of a more unfocused conversation on one person's blog about hosting a site INTENDED for fandom content, into being an actual archive and nonprofit. And it's a large part of why you won't find AO3 banning topics that you find "gross".
Censorship is authoritarian and it will ALWAYS have more collateral damage than you can imagine.
Going to add that fiction which had sexual abuse and communities which played around with it as a writing topic are the very things that protected me from irl sexual abuse when I was a teenager. I was in a dicey situation, and realized that while my situation did not match up to any of the superficial or textbook cases mentioned in passing (if at all) through school, it matched up a LOT to what I'd learned about irl sexual abuse through works of fiction and the rhetoric of my communities. I got out of that situation and dodged what was, in retrospect, one hell of a nasty bullet. If it hadn't been for that "nasty" fiction and those "nasty" communities, I would very likely have been abused, and subject to further violence spiraling out from that abuse.
you canât have *some* censorship.
Yup! It really is, in fact, pretty much that simple:
"I don't think anyone should be allowed to read or write this because it is disgusting to me" is authoritarian.
And herein we see that a lot of people are fine with censorship, actually, as long as it's just applied to things they personally don't like.
Coming from a background where you can get assassinated for saying "A woman should not be killed if she had sex out of wed lock"
NEVER allow censorship. NEVER tolerate censorship. You are lucky because the bigots who want to impose censorship are a Fringe Minority trying to force it on fiction. But once people start seeing them as the Majority, they might as well be, and they will have all the powers that come with it. And with those powers, things like discussing human rights get banned as well.
