first tweets of a thread by @CantonWiner: My paper on the relationship between asexuality and feelings of detachment from gender just won the 2023 Graduate Student Paper award from @socwomen-South!  I’m thrilled to see this work recognized by a feminist organization.  A quick summary of the paper: My findings are based on interviews with 77 people on the asexuality spectrum.  At first, I planned to compare the experiences of asexual men, women, and “beyond the binary” asexuals.  I had to scrap that plan.  Why? About 1/3 of interviewees felt detached from gender altogether. These respondents often gave a gender identity when I initially asked. But as we talked, I learned that they felt uncomfortable with being interpreted through the lens of gender.  They found gender presentation/identity to be irrelevant, pointless, or even oppressive.ALT

i feel so seen!!

(twitter thread)

Holy shit, this!

I would say I am a cis guy, yes, but I really don’t care. I could see myself being a girl aswell (heck I prefer to play feminine characters in video games that allow me to chose), but not in a way would I consider myself trans. Like, I would be fine with any. Obviously I don’t have the experience of being trans, but there is no dysphoria for me. There are things I don’t like about myself, but I feel like that would be the case in any way.

Gender is such a weird concept to me.

Yup! And again I am reminded of that jokey post that said gender is half mating ritual, I really think they were onto something with that.

this tiktok screenshot ruined my life i need to see the serbian pigeon movie so so badly but it doesn’t exist it’s so foul to make this bad of a point with something so cool and then take it away from me.

Tiktok marvel fans really will be out here like “movie fan SHOCKED because i’d rather watch superhero movie #54 in blue and not a sensual 1987 french horror film about a man discovering his wife may not exist set in what is gradually revealed to be a space station” as if you’re supposed to agree that superhero movie #54 is the clear winner in this comparison

Love the idea of a story about a complex issue that’s told from the perspective of something that cannot comprehend or care about the issue. The way the story would be sliced up and moments that a human would consider pointless would be focused on because the pigeon happened to be there would be hype as fuck

Ok FINE I made the movie poster of it

Mališa, otherwise known as Little One, is a pet pigeon owned by a conservative butler of the Austro-Hungarian aristocracy. She is loved, and she is pampered— until her owner is murdered in cold blood, and she is left to fend for herself in Sarajevo.

In the wilds of the city, she feeds from the poor, working nationalist radicals, and the vieux riches alike.

To Mališa, there are no ethical concerns. No politics. No burgeoning nationalism.

There are only hands that feed her, and hands that do not.

This is compelling. Consider me fucking compelled.

We are in danger of inventing another critically acclaimed cult film bro jerkoff film that doesn’t exist….

line drawing of a person cozy in bed. the books Nona the Ninth, Gideon the Ninth, and Harrow the Ninth are tucked under the blankets with them. Above them is a mobile depicting various scenes of  Gideon Nav and Harrowhark, rendered in a poorly drawn stick figure style. From left to right the top row shows 1) Gideon impaled on a fence bleeding out with Harrow standing over her crying 2) Gideon picking Harrow up by the armpits 3) Gideon-in-Harrow holding a sword surrounded by Heralds 4) Gideon standing behind Harrow, both holding a sword as Harrow cries. From left to right, the bottom row shows 1) Harrow and Gideon on a bed with a large black CENSORED box drawn over most of their tangled bodies 2) Gideon wearing a crown and Harrow standing with Ortus & Aiglamene, in between them is Abigail Pent holding a sign that says "NO!" 3) Gideon at a booth labled "BARI"ALT

I feel reasonably confident that nothing I write will be called a tolclone simply because the Professor was not nearly so preoccupied with early church heresies or women’s penises

Lotr but every chapter mentions Arianism and Lady Cock in some way

“Red is the first color of the rainbow” - Pro-LGBT propaganda poster from Filipino communists (c. 2019)

This art is by Emiliana Kampilan/Dead Balagtas, a Filipino comics artist (arguably *The* best I would say). This artwork in particular is for the short comic she did for the LGBTQ Komiket Anthology 2019 (“Pula ang Unang Kulay ng Bahaghari,” or “Red is the First Color of the Rainbow”)
