To break neutrality, i.e. to wear a t-shirt reading 'protect the dolls', is to be subject to sanctioning by impartiality whilst it itself makes impartial the very force of reaction one is standing against. The exploratory guise doesn't hide the agenda of the face which wears it. The agenda smiles.|

The policy of 'impartiality' is composed of two mechanisms, excusement and enforcement. In its enactment it sets variable and enforceable boundaries of acceptability and through the ideological framing of being 'impartial' it excuses itself; it neutralizes a political agenda as 'impartial'. >

therefore narratives invite and require a certain kind of literate scrutiny: what is the story this piece of art is telling ABOUT its subjects? (this also applies to still images, which can tell stories). what script is affirmed or subverted? whose POV is elevated & appealed to, whose is omitted?

"social scripts" are called that for a reason. because they are SCRIPTS, they are learned narratives about how humans interact with each other. narrative is how we internalize empathy, and how we frame certain people as enemies or outsiders. narrative is how we organize our own memories

this, too, is not only a LACK of literacy but an active, hostile REFUSAL of it. that narratives shape the way we see the world and people around us is one of the most well established facts about the concept of media. but some people do not want to think about how narratives form the world

people talk about "media literacy" usually in the context of "needing the villain to look into the camera and tell you they're bad," but it goes the other way too--people will fly into a rage and start insisting "fiction has no effect on reality" if you DO acknowledge context, subtext, framing, etc.

That they're not to be worn in casual outfits affirms a formal, serious, and impersonal quality/intensity to glasses. Notions of glasses not being cute or attractive (qua accessibility to another's face). Such a strange setting to have.

Kytherine @cynicalism.bsky.social · 16/09/2026

"For those who like people as they are". That creates a pretty clear distinction in being. As though glasses detach a person from themselves and the act of their removal re-litigates the person they defaced. But instantiated as preferential external to the wearer's own and own need for them.

Kytherine @cynicalism.bsky.social · 16/09/2026

That is such a strange choice. Putting glasses based misogyny, which itself feels weird and archaic, not as some narrative choice but above the game itself as a setting; giving the player more power to enact it and at anytime and again not as a part of inter-characterization.

Whether it actually becomes a serial, either on my blog or somewhere like scribblehub, or published as a whole thing I don't know. But I am committing myself to getting it done because its the most I've written and at such a pace; and there's elements in it which I think are genuinely quite good. |

I suppose I should do a little update regarding my blog. There's nothing in the works for it yet. I'll maybe do a shorter piece in the coming months if I find something to write about. That said since the start of March I've been near non-stop writing a first draft that has gotten to 94,000 words. >

It's actually fantastic that women are increasingly refusing to submit to male supremacy and the everyday tyranny and terror it is built on. There are very few things that give me hope but the fact women are pushing back hard against men's domination and mediocrity is the main one.

children's rights, trans rights, and women's rights are inescapably bound together because all of us are types of people socially defined by the dominant order based on what makes us "not cis men" and thus how we may be owned and exploited by cis men in the production of their own status as "not us"

Just a quickly put together but fun little poem. I do love the line 'arms the length of love entwine them' which I've taken from another poem I wrote ages ago. #poetry

The stymie of their hearts beckons with each beat,
it drums a dangerous rhythm when they meet.
A cacophony of the unknown that doubt anticipates,
sundered by the raising chorus that emancipates.
Desires pressed like flowers against another,
synchronizing everything unspoken together.

Now as arms the length of love entwine them,
they begin to dance down the lover’s spiral.
Onto the lily sheets they speak every lurid apothegm,
and take their positions there and gyral.

As the discordance grows with maddening impossibility,
that which binds reality is undone in unity of body and spirit.

Its maybe worth writing fully on, if there isn't any already exploring it, but my main immeiditate take away was that there was desire for something that can be abused absolutely and indefinitely without refusal; or the immortality to continue to abuse forever. Which, you know, is horrifying.|

Affirming the Oedipal structure through AI is the social (re)production of, the desire for, a machinic unit that produces power subserviently; artificial labour power without autonomy to reject function, form, or constrained Becomings. The selfless mom/wife. They want a Shodan without her hysteria.

Kytherine @cynicalism.bsky.social · 19/05/2026

Both Yavin and Thiel have overtly expressed the desire to politically disenfranchse women, and we've been seeing precisely that with attacks on bodily autonomy. Suffrage not yet but aggressive gerrymandering in the US by republicans may serve to accomplish that there; having also a racism to it.

151

Kytherine @cynicalism.bsky.social · 19/05/2026

Specifically, it seems to be creating a dualism between AI and women that may serve to enforce the subjectivization into and self-policing of one's womanhood; one's personhood. I'm unsure how much is wanting to replace women necessarily, a desire no doubt present, but instead the threat of it. |

Kytherine @cynicalism.bsky.social · 19/05/2026

In a sense you have 'woman as a technology' that is being reproduced in the tendency to subjectivise AIs as women. The patriarchal backlash to feminism, which turns women 'rampant', finds affirmation of its property relations in that tendency to womanize technology; a boat, a car is a she. >

Instinctively reached for my copy of anti-Oedipus like an exorcist reaching for her bible to banish a demon. Yet another example, like that one train station advert, which exemplifies the misogynistic desires being encoded into the production, marketing, and use-extents of these technologies. >
