Not letting up on this one... People recommend "infinite jest" instead of "broom" bc they don't love women or Cleveland :( If we're going to headcanon artists who committed suicide as having had gender dysphoria, I'm going to talk about DFW and Lenore Sorry!

Just want to stake out that I was doing Mr. Jones at kareoke, because "man I wish I was beautiful," *before* a recent motion picture brought counting crows back into the minds of a lot of trans women. Thanks!

Always interesting when a biopic gets made of someone who'd have almost definitely been opposed to having a biopic made about them as opposed to something more grounded about either someone else or the real world... "Tony"...

thought until recently that the line in Hotel California was "please bring me my Wife / and he said we haven't had that spirit here since 1969" which is both spookier and better than asking for wine imo

To our dismay, the artist and author Marjane Satrapi has passed away. As she wrote, ordinary Americans and Iranians have more in common with each other than we do with either of our governments, which have far too much in common with each other. We honor her memory and oppose the war.

NO WAR WITH IRAN!
The world is not divided into countries. The world is not divided between East and West.
You are American, I am Iranian, we don’t know each other, but we talk together
& we understand each other perfectly. The difference between you
& your government is much bigger than the difference
between you & me.
And the difference between me
& my government is much bigger
than the difference
between me & you.
And our governments are very much the same...
—Marjane Satrapi

"I thought about how the kids of the future would find me strange for all of my hyperaware survival instincts that had been rendered moot by living in a kinder world."
I thought about how the kids of the future would find me strange for all of my hyperaware survival instincts that had been rendered moot by living in a kinder world. I thought about living in a future where the average kid came out in, like, middle school and their teachers called them their new name the next day with a little fanfare before class and everyone politely clapped and then they went to lunch later and their friends were like hey cool name, did you see the big game last night? The game was probably Overwatch or something. To these kids of the future, the old trans lady whose purse was full of tourniquets and who ran her eyes up and down the silhouette of every guy with an American flag on his t-shirt looking for the bulge of a gun or a menacing tattoo on his forearm, like she was Jason Bourne walking into a diner, would probably seem really alien and strange.

A dozen hours deep into Titanium Court, an opinion is forming that is as unshakeable as it is hard to precisely describe: between the absurdism and the perplexingly insistent baseball theme and the ineffable aesthetic of 2000s-era techno-optimism……I think this game might, somehow, be a JonBoisLike

@lukeoneil47.bsky.social’s Hell World roundup on Jason Molina inspired me to go back through the man’s catalog, and it connected with something I’ve been thinking about for a while—a theory of white American masculinity that also touches on Townes Van Zandt and the brilliance of Sinners:

One thing you will never think after reading a great book or listening to a great album or seeing a great piece of art is, “I’m really glad this person remained cautious while they were making this and guarded against being perceived as weird.”
