I’m so fucking sorry—this is absolutely horrific and, yes, abuse toward a marginalized group. And I thought I had to jump through a lot of hoops here in Canada to get the care I needed…

"I wish all companies insisting on AI a very bankruptcy"

I will post it once I finish actually compiling the class! A lot of films and games as well.

And of course: Junji Ito.

I never thought I would get such joy from building a class reading list… But then I never thought I would be paid to talk about mental health and body horror—or that they would ask me to come back and do it all over again.

Shit’s gonna get even weirder come January…

The very idea of this thing is so fucking haunting.

Withered This is queer psychological horror, tackling important issues of mental health, in particular eating disorders, in the way that only horror fiction can: by delving deep, cracking them open, and exposi...

Fuck, I feel this so very hard.

100 mg daily, 6mg estradiol—no spiro as I am post-surgery. So far no impact on sex drive (but then I am ace), just breast tenderness and dizziness/sleepiness.

I have been taking it in the morning, with my first dose of estradiol (oral, twice daily), and I'm wondering if night is better.

... sometimes a feeling like my legs are jelly and/or too heavy and uncoordinated for their own good. I'm in relatively decent shape and am pretty well hydrated, so I doubt it's that. I intend to ask my GP if this continues, but I'm curious if this is a known thing I simply wasn't warned about.

Maybe not the right place to ask, but I'll ask anyway: trans women/femmes on progesterone, did you experience any strange or negative physical side effects?

I'm three weeks in. At first, it trimmed away my anxiety wonderfully. Now, however I'm noticing random vertigo, extreme fatigue, and...

I saw Altman speak once (I was there for basketball related reasons) and I couldn’t get over how little value everything he was saying had. He was asked questions and somehow had the most boring, meandering, thoughtless answers. It makes perfect sense he’d use ChatGPT for parenting.

no idea

Turns out that running your body (and brain) into the ground while also on and adjusting to a litany of SSRIs and HRT is not that great an idea. Vertigo, mild dissociation, weakness in the legs... I really need to get my head around this whole "feeding and resting the body as it requires" nonsense.

Maybe the best thing Tarantino has ever done is to highlight just how much people love—and have slept on—Paul Dano.

Exactly!!

Not only is that depressing but also... that seems like so, so much more effort. Like, you have to scan pages hunting for dialogue.

I love writing dialogue—it's my favourite. But at the same time... my dude, do not bother with my work if you're not going to actually engage with the whole of it.

Same! Such a simpler time...

The brain rot among wealthy tech bros is something that needs to be written about and discussed more broadly. Because... yeesh.

Such a shame we don't do CanBPA events anymore...

Oh man, I might have to get super into mocktails...

Happy “Metroid Prime 4 fucking finally” day to all who celebrate.

While my copy is set to arrive tomorrow, I’ve decided to hold it hostage until I beat Act 3 of Silksong AND finish this latest (14th!) draft of Every Little Death.

Progress via self-torture—whatever works.

You either grow out of being a Libertarian when you're 15 or you spend your whole life as an intellectual clown arguing things like

*checks notes*

"Maybe allowing war crimes would be great for the drone strike & missile industries."

Libertarianism NEVER leads to utopia; it ONLY leads to despotism

I have this same issue.
