Film Round-Up
loneberry: Black Swan (2010), directed by Darren Aronofsky I saw this with my little brother and dad before I left Florida. It was entertaining, but relied to much on cheap tricks to drive a rather shallow plot and I was definitely not into the the pseudo-“deep” message it was trying to advance about the relationship between art and eroticism (namely, the idea that frigid women just need a...

Read "Uses of the Erotic" a few weeks ago...
xicanagrrrl: Um, changed my life? So this post is on sex and emotion. Oh Goddess, have I been screwed over by people separating sex from emotion, and screwed myself over by doing the same thing. Screwed as in bad, unenjoyable, wasteful, destroying kind, not fantastic orgasmic creative beautiful kind.  So, basically what I got out of “Uses of the Erotic” is that we all have a chaos of desires...

aknowledgeofloss: Posting for another truth. mohandasgandhi replied to your post: My life did not end the minute I was diagnosed with a mental illness Sorry, but I don’t believe the majority of mental illnesses are “illnesses” anyway. I’ve been diagnosed with multiple and I don’t buy it. Maybe my brain is different from the norm but that doesn’t mean I’m sick.

straight queerz
champagneproblems: besttumblr: i find myself wanting to talk about heterosexuality a lot in queer spaces and then feel shame for it, like i’m appropriating a space that’s supposed to be free of an often-compulsory act that many in those spaces found/find oppressive but like, obvi queer isn’t just about same-sex relationships, and thinking of queer as not-opposite-sex is meaningless within a...

i love my hair. i love the way it’s growing out, how soft it is, the bountiful specks of silver, my natural brown color, the texture of it beneath my hands, the smell of my scalp on my hands after i touch my head. its oils. its swirls and patterns. i love my nails. i’ve never grown them out before - never wanted to, really, and they always flaked and peeled - but since i’ve been...
