The Magicians trilogy, particularly the first book, has a lot of similarities with the Secret History in mood, if not plot points.
Not in the mood to reply to people with nothing substantive to say against my arguments, but I will note that anyone who believes the BDSM community (hell-hole that it is) is at all in favor of 50 Shades (or this movie) is deeply misinformed about BDSM.
As a queer involved in the drag scene (as a fan and occasional writer) there is no end to my loathing of RuPaul.
Of course! What part would you like further explanation about?
I am a sexual abuse survivor who has volunteered with sexual abuse support organisations. I have written some of the literature.
These things are patently untrue.
There’s a reason the villain of Back to the Future II was based on him - even in the 80s, he was seen as the storybook villain, the pathetic alpha and omega of the greed-is-good ethos. He has always been evil.
Oh, absolutely. But none of the activists I know or follow believe any of this is useful in any way - every other tweet sometimes is some variation on ‘did we stutter when we said defund the police, did we do something to make you think this is what we meant, it’s not what we meant’. This is just rich people covering…
The amount of people acting as if their life is ruined and America is crumbling purely because some mediocre TV shows removed episodes is alarming. It’s one thing to know how much people over-identify with media because their lives lack any true meaning, it’s another thing to see people talking about “crying for…
So, I was a regular attendee of Christian horse camp when I was a kid. Didn’t care so much about Jesus, even though I tried, but I was all-in on the campfires and trail rides.
But money’s just a game, right? And if you don’t make more than your buddy you lose, right? - every fucking billionaire
I appreciate your digging into your feelings about the matter - they are absolutely not far from my own in some areas, and while we appear to differ on many points those are not the subject of our conversation here.
No, I’d much prefer that we have separate conversations about Shitty Person A and Shitty Person B. That’s in an ideal world. In this world, there are still plenty of ways to have this discussion that don’t rely on bullshit tactics and don’t just look like point scoring!
I’d like to believe you’re doing this in good faith, since I also agree that Argento is almost certainly guilty and it’s truly fucked up that it hasn’t gotten more attention, but the thing is.... they’re both wrong! Both terribly, terribly wrong, and the public’s failure to look more closely at Argento has literally…
I understand completely, I’ve slipped myself in the past. Thank you so much.
Ugh. Look, Lindsey might like dick, but us queers don’t want to claim him, and mockingly calling him a queen is an ugly look. Like, I get it! He’s a terrible person and a hypocrite and laughing at him is fun, but can we mock him for something other than him being a bit of a queen?
I mean, you’re a troll, but I was going to pretend this was in good faith and try to enter a conversation. Except, unfortunately, you seem like you have zero knowledge about the subject and are speaking from a combination of overt racism and happy ignorance.
“So why is Barron better than any those caged children? Why are those innocent children prejudged but not Barron?”
I read this as you asking a bot this question like some sort of grim cyberpunk present magic eight ball, and I enjoyed that image. So thank you.
