Instagram really making me feel seen with the elite algorithmic combo of Tumblr era thinspo content, "not now kitten" memes, and wide range of Zizek impressions.

I've got an Antigone joke but I heard you're too cool to laugh at it.

Had a nightmare last night that Ralph Fiennes emerged from my fish pond and ate my girl cat. Ok.

Watched Jesus Christ Superstar with loved ones yesterday to celebrate, which completely holds up. Seeing that movie on repeat while being raised Catholic by folks towards the leftist end of the spectrum certainly explains why I'm ✨like this✨.

Happy return of the dark mother to all those who celebrate. Let's all go around the table and say what we're @contrapoints.bsky.social for.

My toxic trait is I can read any academic text and make my response to it about Mark Fisher.

On the one hand, the fauxgressive idiot high school ex-boyfriend who SA-ed me habitually and stalked me has a massive banner on his bluesky page that says "you are what you do" (ironic, damning, hoisted by own petard, etc.) On the OTHER hand a quick scroll verifies I am still infinitely funnier.

My relationship style is usually described as monogamy but actually monolatry is much more accurate.

5) I was in a low key cult led by my best friend and mentor who was 20 years older for almost all of my 20s. She financially and emotionally abused me significantly. It feels weird and embarrassing to call it a cult but it pretty definitely was and I generally find it hard to talk about.

4) I have hemochromatosis, which means my blood has too much iron in it. The treatment is bleeding. As if A and I could be any more each other's soulmates.

3) I haven't seen it, but the musical Come From Away is about an experience I lived through and participated in. I don't usually like media about my home created by people who aren't from there but I'll probably check it out someday.

2) when I was touring a lot, my contract had very general accommodations reqs. I should have known when the event sponsor confirmed I was catholic and then separately that I was unmarried, but it wasn't until I arrived at the address that I realized it was a convent. Honestly it was great.

I'm dying. My sister (future genre fiction writer) convinced me fully for several years that I was a secret green alien hiding on earth. There was a full political backstory. I really believed it. She's also a fan of yours. I can't wait to read this 🌱

Next time someone comes at me with some "the moral arc of history bends towards justice" trash I will probably counter by telling them we live in a factory second Atlas Shrugged world.

Sometimes I fear we live in an Objectivist simulation, then I remember that in our universe novelty metal billionaires aren't just amoral they're also too dumb to invent Rearden Steel so their stupid novelty metal bridges (in our case dumpster trucks and tin can submersibles) just fail.

It's not like "premiere" (similar pattern as "Lumiere" from Beauty and the Beast) NOR the way "premier" (masculine, no second e) is pronounced in French. You say "PRE-myer" with an emphasis on the first syllable and no fanciness at the end, a similar vocal pattern as something like "failure."

Ok I have a great problem because Americans are finally learning about Canadian current events. This is about the correct way to pronounce "premier" (the leader of a province) and if you get it right you'll be better than most US media.

My great-grandfather brought a date to my great-grandmother's funeral. I was 7 and it was also the day I got my first pair of glasses. I saw a lot of things more clearly that day, I suppose. Anyway, agreed obviously.

Ok yes. I had nightmares after seeing this movie (also 16) for a long time and I still get a really sick feeling in my stomach when I think about the premise. When I realized what it was about I felt Iike the wind got knocked out of me.

I don't think it's silly at all— the ways those things code in our brains is so fascinating to me. The original Unsolved Mysteries opening credits are still one of the scariest things I've ever seen!

There's a list of like a dozen really niche videos essays I'll probably never make and one of them is definitely a post-structuralist analysis of masculine performance at the gym, through pump covers and rest period activities.
