Her name was Barbara Cartland, she was the most fabulous woman alive.

Also she apparently was a glider pilot????

One of my favourite things about being a romance novelist is that one of the pioneers in the field was a woman who dressed and talked like a drag queen who’d made an over the top posh lady stage persona and then was cursed by a witch to never break character.

In this book you focus on the idea of gender as a global ‘phantasm’ – this charged, overdetermined, anxiety- and fear-inducing cluster of fantasies that is being weaponised by the right. How did you go about starting to investigate that? Judith Butler: When I was burned in effigy in Brazil in 2017, I could see people screaming about gender, and they understood ‘gender’ to mean ‘paedophilia.’ And then I heard people in France describing gender as a Jewish intellectual movement imported from the US. This book started because I had to figure out what gender had become. I was naïve. I was stupid. I had no idea that it had become this flash point for right-wing movements throughout the world. So I started doing the work to reconstruct why I was being called a paedophile, and why that woman in the airport wanted to kill me with the trolley. I’m not offering a new theory of gender here; I’m tracking this phantasm’s formation and circulation and how it’s linked to emerging authoritarianism, how it stokes fear to expand state powers. Luckily, I was able to contact a lot of people who translated Gender Trouble in different parts of the world, who were often gender activists and scholars in their own right. They told me about what’s happening in Serbia, what’s happening in Brazil, Chile, Argentina, Russia. So I became a student of gender again. I’ve been out of the field for a while. I stay relatively literate, of course, but I’ve written on war, on ethics, on violence, on nonviolence, on the pandemic… I’m not in gender studies all the time. I had to do a lot of reading.  There’s a lot of focus in the book on how the anti-gender movement has moved across the world in the past few decades, and how it’s inextricable from Catholic doctrine. It was clarifying for me; domestic anti-trans movements in the UK mostly self-identify as secular.  Judith Butler: In the UK, and even in the US, people don’t realise that this anti-gender ideology movement has been going on for some time in the Americas, in central Europe, to a certain degree in Africa, and that it’s arrived in the US by different routes, but it’s arrived without announcing its history. It became clear to me that a lot of the trans-exclusionary feminists didn’t realise where their discourse was coming from. Some of them do; some people who call themselves feminists are aligned with right-wing positions, and it’s confusing, but there it is. There’s an uncomfortable history of fascist feminism in movements like British suffragism, for instance. Judith Butler: Yes, and of racism. But when Putin made clear that he agreed with JK Rowling, she was probably surprised, and she rightly said, ‘no, I don’t want your alliance’, but it was an occasion for her to think about who she’s allying herself with, unwittingly or not. The anti-gender movement was first and foremost a defence of Biblical scripture, and of the idea that God created man and woman, and that the human form exists only in this duality and that without it, the human is destroyed – God’s creation is destroyed. So that morphed, as the Vatican’s doctrine moved into Latin America, into the idea that people who advocate ‘gender’ are forces of destruction who seek to destroy man, woman, the human, civilisation and culture.

I find it interesting how it's generally accepted that most gay/bi people realise they're queer in their teens but somehow the idea that people might now they're trans in their teens is somehow a controversial idea that couldn't possibly be true.

Like I knew something was up when I was 14ish.

Green rain happens on a random day in mid Summer and your first Green rain in a save features everyone fucking losing their shit.

Love how during the Green rain everyone is one bad suggestion from sacrificing Morris to Yoba.

I mean it's the correct choice but it won't stop the green rain.

I remember reading about this guy when I was researching about the early weeb fandom in the US. Like the article says he was one of the main organizers in the 1980s NYC anime fandom and iirc AMVs were directly inspired by the legendary Daicon III opening animation and Kaposztas’ desire to make similar music video style anime-mashup shorts but obviously didn’t have access to an animation team so he did the next best thing and used his video editing skills (I wouldn’t be surprised if he was an early fansubber)

Update: I rescued Leo.

If the farmer could speak...

It was a quiet night at the Stardrop Saloon. This quiet, alas wouldn't last, as The Farmer, Abigail, and the Wizard Rasmus entered the bar.

"Everyone, I have news" announced Abigail, "or rather we have news" she continued glancing at her farmer wife. "As we all know," the Wizard started "The Farmer is, well, mute, but I have finally brewed this after looking through my library. It's tested, it works and I think it's only right that we gather round to see this momentous event."

The whole saloon gathered themselves around the table as a sheepish looking Farmer was handed a bottle. "Ok, as I said, down the whole bottle in one" said the Wizard. The Farmer did just that.

Everyone stayed silent.

"Hoo, okay" started the farmer, "first off, Abigail, I love you and I'm so glad to have married you." The Saloon erupted in applause as the Farmer and her wife shared a kiss. "Secondly," continued the farmer, "There's something very important I need to tell everyone: There is an abandoned child on Ginger Island and we need to go save him."

The Saloon went quiet. "Did..." started Lewis, "did you just say..." "Yes" said the farmer, "a child. On Ginger Island. Alone. He doesn't seem to trust me or anyone it seems. I've tried telling people but you can only get so far with gestures and notes. There is a child on Ginger Island and we need to rescue him."
