entheogenic system @tragicomedy@occult.camp

drawing myself as a gym leader lol... id be poison type with a psychedelic/stoner aes haha

i really like long skirts and like, dress shirts? its a good look imo but i don't really dress that way anymore

@tragicomedy feels analogous to ppl responding to criticisms of the makeup industry with "but i Like makeup"

i really dislike it when people say "gender abolition is bad because i /like/ my gender!" like.... no we aren't going to take away your gender but we want to unmake the oppressive class hierarchy that subjugates us

the idea that butches can't wear skirts ever is annoying.... i don't wear skirts much bc dysphoria but they're comfy as hell

i feel like wittig makes a really good and compelling argument against biological essentialism and i wish her work was more widely read bc i feel like it might appeal to the essentialist crowd bc of how materially focused her writing and theory is

@tragicomedy "To refuse to be a woman, however, does not mean that one has to become a man. Besides, if we take as an example the perfect “butch,” the classic example which provokes the most horror, whom Proust would have called a woman/ man, how is her alienation different from that of someone who wants to became a woman?" i love when materialist feminists emphasize the commonalities between afab and amab lesbians (language here is shaky but eh, this was the 80s)

"By doing this, by admitting that there is a “natural” division between women and men, we naturalize history, we assume that “men” and “women” have always existed and will always exist. Not only do we naturalize history, but also consequently we naturalize the social phenomena which express our oppression, making change impossible." god i love monique wittig

discord is good

god today my horror lit class started watching the film "lost boys" and it's extremely fun and 80s and i am enjoying it. i am glad to be in a class where my professor uses the phrase "vampire scholars"
