mike flanagan is anti-horror. grey brown netflix sludge, tenderness without intimacy. his little limp dick narratives are skin deep, no flesh no blood, no honest exploration of the works of art that he's being lauded for willfully misunderstanding. "from the heart and soul of mike flanagan" is oxymoronic and stupid and as trite as his FUCK NOTHING television shows and movies.

quezify

also he's just straight up a misogynist. to me.

i like "social ergonomics" bc like yeah. furniture is usually made in a way that's like "we think this is probably what is needed for a human to immediately perform any given task" and often we are wrong about what types of furniture or spaces will have a detrimental long term impact on our bodies. ergonomics ideally looks at the evidence of the impact on bodies and then works backwards from there to come up with design.

social ergonomics should mean looking at social structures and analyzing the outcomes they have re: human welfare, and then taking that information back to the design board and redesigning things to hurt people less.

this should also be a zine. someday. but that would require me being able to sit upright

My partner is a game designer. He crafts experiences intended to elicit specific behaviors from thousands of strangers as his full time job. He often looks at social structures from this perspective in his free time and we talk about it a lot. and hoo boy are a lot of our systems not doing what they are officially meant to do.

i am thinking about this ALL of the time. maybe I should also be a game designer

if you’re genuinely interested in game design you should check out Radiator Yang’s game The Tearoom (NSFW, unless you work at the Sucking Off Dude’s Guns factory).

I realize it’s weird to show up on someone’s post to say “you like game design. Have you played this game about giving head in a bathroom?” but it’s a really thoughtfully made game (see the artist’s statement, which is also NSFW) that is also about the effects of surveillance on communities. when, after about half an hour of play, I realized what mindset the game had deliberately cultivated in me, I had to turn off my computer and stare at the ceiling for ten minutes. and that’s Game Design, to me

creekfiend

oh thank you for that link to the artist's statement about this game, that was FASCINATING

People have real issues understanding why the absence of romance and sexual desire is such a big deal. "No one bothers you over your sexual orientation! You're basically a straight person!" No wrong. The older you get the more your life is considered a failure for failing to find a life partner and get your 2.5 kids in.

Like people make fun of middle aged women for not getting married or being divorced or "always the bridesmaid never the bride" and all like "oh she's desperate! No one wants her! Old maid!' but they become straight up hostile and upset when you tell them you never want to date.

Being unpartnered after your mid twenties is just like "oh what's wrong with you" and "don't worry you'll find your guy" "aren't you afraid of being alone" "who will take care of you" "you're running out of time to have kids" and no matter what you are or aren't people straight up don't understand that you don't want them.

People tend to forget that queer is a word that means weird, and if you step out of heteronormativity you're weird in the eyes of the heteonormative society, wether you want different relationships or no relationships at all.

The core wound of this demographic is being rejected and being relentlessly asked to stop your bullshit relative to romance and sex, and to get back in the ranks. The aroace definitely qualify.

And since being rejected is obviously a veeeeery common trauma in the queer community, and people tend to reenact unhealed patterns, it's not rare to see queer people rejecting other queer people with shit like biphobia, being picky with who "qualify" as trans, dismissing aroaces etc...

Let's put rejection somewhere on a dusty shelf for a while and see how it feels. I'm sure it's freeing.

Ignoring misogyny: "Like people make fun of middle aged women for not getting married or being divorced or "always the bridesmaid never the bride" and all like "oh she's desperate! No one wants her! Old maid!' but they become straight up hostile and upset when you tell them you never want to date." *cough* Hugh Hefner *cough* Andrew Tate *cough* Clavicular *cough*

Ignoring homophobia, with some bonus patronizing therapyspeak (and is this really an accurate description of transphobia? is homophobia really best summed up as rejection?): "The core wound of this demographic is being rejected and being relentlessly asked to stop your bullshit relative to romance and sex, and to get back in the ranks. The aroace definitely qualify.And since being rejected is obviously a veeeeery common trauma in the queer community, and people tend to reenact unhealed patterns, it's not rare to see queer people rejecting other queer people with shit like biphobia, being picky with who "qualify" as trans, dismissing aroaces etc.."

Like, no, you ass, queer people who internalize homophobia and transphobia - or who engage in lateral hostility - are not "reenacting unhealed patterns." Nerds who go Nazi are not reacting to being bullied in school.

Would you ever think to say something like this about a form of bigotry you aren't trying to minimize? Do you talk about I don't know immigrants who support harsh anti-immigration laws like this? Do those people just need therapy? Or do you take that kind of bigotry seriously?

Something about the bastardization of the story time and time again proves that nobody in power really cares about the people who would resonate with King’s Carrie White. A girl so ugly and repulsive she’s been removed from her own story. The societal need for women and girls to be constantly perceived as attractive is what fuels a fair amount of her torment in the book, but that person isn’t even allowed to exist on the screen. We cannot empathize with her; it isn’t allowed. It’s fascinating to me.

Turns out it was about women’s sports all along—if getting rid of women's sports counts, that is.

Wow whoever could've seen this coming?!? after spending years bashing trans people to "protect women's sports" they have now moved onto "actually we shouldn't even have most women's sports anyway because it's bad for their child bearing chances." and it's apparently discrimination against men's sports that we are required to offer equal sports for women. Whoever could have seen this coming?!?

Oh right everyone with a fucking brain who knew none of these fuckers ever cared about women sports and we're just using it to attack trans people!!

redhairandpronouns

it is really funny to me how many "arguments" fall apart when you literally just ask someone to elaborate. "trans men get male privilege!" give me an example. oh, you're specifically talking about 100% stealth trans men? yeah that's not how that works. "trans men are invading women's spaces" define "women's spaces". oh you mean the obgyn? the fucking doctor? "trans men are talking over women!" and it's a trans man talking about like, menstruation. like Come On,

pastimperfection

define "women's spaces"

This is a joke, right? You aren't actually claiming that you can't come up with any examples of "women's spaces?" Any examples of "women's spaces" where trans men might be more welcome than trans women?

redhairandpronouns

no, i can't, actually. can you give an example? preferably one that doesn't fully degender and/or misgender trans men, because that's not really welcoming.

pastimperfection

Okay, so you've just admitted that you were arguing in bad faith when you said, "Oh you mean the obgyn? The fucking doctor?"

Because when you said that, you knew perfectly well that people who talk about women's spaces are not talking about "the ob/gyn."

They're talking about this very different thing that you just referred to: social and community spaces that self-define as women's spaces but in practice exclude trans women and welcome trans men.

(It's also not true that those spaces always misgender trans men, either - I've been in several where people were totally affirming of my transmasculine identity, pronouns included. These same people would also routinely misgender and exclude trans women. This is a phenomenon trans women talk about often. I don't know why you don't find them credible.)

So you weren't joking when you said you've never heard of women's spaces, and that the only example you could imagine was maybe a doctor who specializes in women's health? Is that a "women's space?" You were misrepresenting these complaints.

Maybe other people have given you other specific examples and you're just misrepresenting those as well.

This is gold this, absolute gold, the most over the top melodramatic hysterical ridiculous thing I’ve ever read

This is actually so interesting to read- it’s from 2012 but its full of the same anxieties, even some of the same phrasing that many of the guardian’s later pieces on transness use. really hammers home how much of the terfism that emerged in the late 10s was middle class mothers angry at a loss of control over their adult children- whether that be their bodies or their friends or their opinions- and making that everyone’s problem because they have the power to do so

He says, “I’m still the same person.”

I look at him, sitting there, my 21-year-old son. I feel I’m being interviewed for a job I don’t even want. I say, “But you’re not. You’re different. I will never look at you in the same way again. It’s a visceral feeling. Maybe because I’m your mother. All those years of looking after your body – taking you to the dentist and making you drink milk and worrying about green leafy vegetables and sunscreen and cancer from mobile phones. And then you let some stranger inject ink under your skin. To me, it seems like self-mutilation. If you’d lost your arm in a car accident, I would have understood. I would have done everything to make you feel better. But this – this is desecration. And I hate it.”
