Juniper Blessing should have had a long, full life.

This whole thread is such a banger discussion

Wonder if I should update this one now that the discourse has shifted. Although I think a lot of people have the gist of it. deepcuts.blog/2022/12/21/d...

Had a great chat with @scumbelievable.bsky.social for an upcoming @horrorvanguard.bsky.social episode. Easily the best convo HV has had on the body and horror in a hot minute.

Revisiting @horrorvanguard.bsky.social's episodes on the Terrifier series and once more stealing this @rosegardenofeyes.bsky.social quote: "Haters gonna hate, hate, hate. And they would be right to do so, listeners."

The newest episode of @horrorvanguard.bsky.social features another discussion on why trains are amazing, and me introducing @rosegardenofeyes.bsky.social to the joys of the greatest sport in the world 🏏 on.soundcloud.com/y4NMz9gDtl4Y...

Every day I watch the tech industry build The Boot On the Neck Of Humanity Machine and watch universities say “we are going to sustainably and ethically prepare our students to become innovators in The Boot On The Neck Of Humanity Machine space”

I’m sure I would love this post, but I’m too busy painting the third tentacle-mouth to sprout from my armor today

NEW WRITING: On the Horus Heresy and transmedia storytelling: “The materialist project eats itself alive, destroyed not by forces external to itself, but by the irrational kernel concealed within all rationality.” www.patreon.com/posts/156616...

Forcing a pregnant person to carry a fetus to term is also political violence.

By far the most horrific topic Jon has covered to date.

AT THE HEART OF MODERN CULTURE, A NIGHTMARISH VOID Me, in @currentaffairs.bsky.social www.currentaffairs.org/news/the-ban...

🔥 What a privilege to join the comrades at @workerslit.bsky.social to talk about @scumbelievable.bsky.social's brutal, beautiful novel, "Black Flame" 🔥

Some new writing on the problem of horror theory, and why I think the newest book under the name isn't really doing theory in any meaningful sense of the term.

@rosegardenofeyes.bsky.social -- this line, I die: "The very living space of my existence throughout Logistics became part theatre, part crows nest and partly a mast to which I was willingly chained. "

I just encountered this incredible piece of film criticism that is also about shipping and logistics and capitalism and time, and now you can too you lucky dog: www.readthemaple.com/i-watched-an...

If they kill these people what will you do?

New writing! The new Horror Theory Reader is a profound disappointment and represents a retreat from harder questions into old, safe and exhausted topics.

Every trans person who insists on being seen is a living map for those still finding their way.

I listened to this in full and, yeah, not surprisingly it's as bad as trans folks are saying. Openly excuses treating trans care as expendable to appease a fascist federal government. Put not your faith in politicians, y'all. Any of them. Ever

no war no borders no cops no prisons no to all of this shit

These are criminal acts, and there is no way to find the other side of this without meaningful accountability for this—like “in the dock at The Hague” accountability.

"it's only war if congress authorizes it" Idk fam I'm pretty sure it's war when the bombs start falling. I wonder if the people being bombed think it's a war or not. Somehow I don't think they care too much about US domestic procedures.

cancel culture was never real. not when the most powerful people in society keep giving rapists and racists opportunities their victims never get.

We simply cannot allow ourselves to be ruled by the joyless.

After the dramatic destruction of the @horrorvanguard.bsky.social crypt, me and @rosegardenofeyes.bsky.social are taking to the road to find a new home for HV, join us for a special kind of horror movie road trip: on.soundcloud.com/Dbp5Q91aMAdP...

I've been thinking about how this has already played out in games - there was a massive push to convince the industry and world that there was this huge audience of angry reactionary gamers who weren't getting what they demanded. And it turned out there weren't that many and they don't buy games

Update/Scoop— New guidance sent this AM to Kansas DMVs indicates licenses that previously had gender marker changed not actually invalid yet. However, internally DMV can see who is flagged, and keeping track of who has/hasn't come in to update. Seems about 300 trans/GNC ppl flagged across the state.

The kidnappers have names and should be arrested immediately

When faced with a shockingly exploitative new employment contract that would’ve forced them to sign away their IP, their likeness rights, and their power of attorney, Jupiter Jetson and her coworkers at Sheri’s fought back—fast. They organized a union in SIX DAYS. www.thenation.com/article/econ...

I'm sorry but "I fear losing my job" is not a valid excuse any longer.

Trans people want to have sex and make art and talk about sports and do all the shit everyone likes, and instead we have to think about Nazi freaks all day. This sucks eggs.

Because many (most) trans people in Kansas aren't going to move, please also look for ways to support those staying and fighting the current regime there. Sadly when a draconian anti-trans measure hits in a "red state," wider support pushes tend to forget those who aren't leaving.

NEW WRITING: "If every occupation is an act of repair, every haunting is a moment of revolutionary possibility" On The Changeling (1980) and the eugenic capitalism that undergirds both American political power and it's obsession with private property: www.patreon.com/posts/haunte...

Before praising the current papacy, remember that late last year the Catholic Church imposed one of the most sweeping bans on trans healthcare yet, cutting off life-saving care throughout its sprawling U.S. hospital networks:

Last week, activists with Jewish Voice for Peace - LA and their allies held a Solidarity Shabbat at sunset outside the MDC in Los Angeles, CA, where activists prayed, sang & marched together. I spoke with a number of folks about why it was important for them to show up. Check it out:

if you see this, post a monster

a trans woman i know is being deported back to the USA due to the Home Office messing up paperwork. her wife is desperately trying to raise the funds to prevent this. they have 48 hours before she’s put on a plane and might never be able to return. please, help if you can. they’re both terrified.

I become more and more convinced that the AI is just right wing class war and the lack of white collar worker organisation due having been flattered for years as geniuses and fed like farm geese has just led to a colossal lack of awareness of the class interests going on.

"tapering plans" for HRT is a death sentence if you've had gender-affirming surgeries, like I have with my orchi, because your body will just wither away and die without hormones. Unspeakable evil. Demonic shit. You don't hate these motherfuckers enough.

“Looksmaxxers” are losers and freaks, but we let them steer the culture when we adopt their terminology.

Valentine’s Day got you down? You can have a little #SaturdayWithCamus as a treat!

This reminds me of a point that I was introduced to by @rosegardenofeyes.bsky.social: All media is physical media; and how something is physical in the world (along with where, when, and controlled by who) makes a lot of difference in mediating our use of that media.

🌟 Sex workers at Sheri’s Ranch, a legal brothel in Pahrump, Nevada, are unionizing with the Communications Workers of America @cwaunion.bsky.social Last week, management fired several pro-union workers—including the union’s primary organizer, Jupiter Jetson thenevadaindependent.com/article/sex-...

Adorno moment: The import of Threads as a criticism of cold war politics is that it presents its endpoint as utterly hopeless! If you put hope into it, the critical role of the artwork dissolves. Given that this will defo be presented as an analogy for climate change, this will simply be propaganda.

This morning, I wrote about struggling under the weight of this moment and offered a few reflections on why it's important to still seek out joy and rest in the midst of our feverish struggle. Don't let the burnout getcha, folks, we have a world to win.
