  1. Tube Map of Queer Authors

    Look what a UK friend pointed out to me the other day (thanks, Linda!): a Tube Map of Queer Authors put together by the Barbican & Community Libraries, London.

    As usual, they’ve mischaracterised me/my work—I should be on a nexus point between the red, yellow, green, and blue lines—and if I had to be connected to only one line, it should be the red one—after all, I’ve written many more non-SFF novels than SFF. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not trying to distance myself from SFF—I love SFF!—but it’s only part of what I do. Having said that, look at where SFF is placed—the smallest line, looped and self-contained, as though SFF has no influence on (or is influenced by) any other literature. Always relegated to the back corner of the store… Or, well, fuck it, no. Let say sui generis (if a whole genre can be singular).

    But, hey, it’s a cool map. And I can’t blame the map makers, really—I mean every critic/reviewer and her mother gets confused about what I write; it’s why I hired publicists last year. Sadly, not even they could turn that liner, steaming majestically ahead on its own course 🙄 Oh, well.

    As I say, though, still cool: filling the sandwich of Arthur C. Clarke and Octavia Butler. And hey, how could one possibly complain about being on the bottom line of everything, alongside Sappho??

  6. Finished reading: Role Model

    So approximately two months ago, in a fit of sadness, I watched the gay hockey show in one sitting then fell down an AO3 rabbit hole wherein I read slightly shy of 500 fanfics about it. During this journey I realized that my OTP for this fandom was, in fact, Actual Wet Cat Troy Barrett and Gay Apple Boy Harris Drover, and there just wasn't that much fic about them, specifically. Which... boo. And then I was like, "I could... read their book?"

  19. “The show seems to go out of its way to say that it’s very masculine to be gay, which is exactly why people like those classical romances, where homosexuality is a natural overflow of masculine energy. It’s a vision of a sort of non-toxic but also non-anxious masculinity – masculinity that doesn’t require women to constantly affirm it.”

    Adrian Daub on girls who like boys who like boys.

    Apparently all the AO3 girlies are now sufficiently grown-up and have influenced pop culture to the point that The Guardian is doing the whole “did you know girls like to watch dudes fuck???” thing. Which, like. On the one hand, 2006 called and wants its take back. But, also, on the other, the fact that this is in a big mainstream normie news outlet, about a big mainstream TV show definitely says . . . something? I guess? Maybe.

  24. Remember all those times I've talked about how going after ALL queers is about peeling off one letter at a time? How they're only starting with the T?

    Now they're going after the B.

    erininthemorning.com/p/after-t

    Bisexuals are being erased from history, too.

    Lesbians will be next.

    And then Gays, well, they're just "homosexuals," disordered and wrong...

    ...and to be eradicated, like everyone else.

    You know you read a thing and you’re like, “Well. Can’t unread that . . .” but also you know exactly the person you’re going to give a rec to? This is that book.

    You’re basically going to know if this is the book for you just by reading the blurb and the content warnings, and if they sound like a thing you want to read, you will have a good time. I will say this was more explicit and visceral and fourth-wall-breakingly surreal than I was expecting, and the satire here is not subtle, though nor is it supposed to be. You know JK Rowling when she shows up. Sympathetic characters are also thin on the ground, though the messiness and the cruelty are recognisable and understandable, and you’ve seen them before to some degree or another if you’ve spent any time in queer alt spaces. People also drink piss. It’s that sort of book.

    Brainwyrms is not going to be for everyone, but if you’re looking for a messy, visceral, surreal, trans cosmic horror . . . then yes. This.

  50. “Thatcher’s claim that there are only “men and women” is not an accident. Restrictive gender roles were, and still are, necessary to the world she envisioned. “The single biggest off-the-books investment that keeps stripped-down neoliberal economics working is free female labor,” historian Bethany Moreton told me. American women average over four hours a day of unpaid labor; some estimates put the annual value of this work at $1.5 trillion. If those hours were reduced or paid out, there would be massive cultural and financial repercussions. Men’s lives would be upended, as things stopped happening and they either faced the consequences or had to pick up the slack. Such changes would rewrite what it means to be a good wife and caring mother or, more fundamentally, popular visions of being a woman. Many people naturally will go to great lengths to not have to reimagine the fundamental basis of their lives.”

    On unpaid labour.

    This is your friendly reminder that whenever you — yes, you — buy into “think of the children” nonsense of any kind — and this absolutely goes around in progressive circles, ref. for e.g. “no kink at Pride” discourse — that Q chuckles as it grows just a little stronger . . .

  54. I'm begging you all to read Necropolitics by Achille Mbembe.

    It's a fucking important theoretical work, especially in today's world.
