okay but if you ever see a male creative who had a string of great work and then everything else he did was dogshit, go to the "personal life" part of his wikipedia and look at his relationships. you'll either find a major tragedy he didn't recover from (completely understandable) or, more likely, there was a woman in his life doing uncredited shit editing his stuff or contributing generally and she's not there anymore.
I told a friend about this phenomenon in literature and he called me weeks later like, I remembered what you said about women doing uncredited work when tim burton came up. he made a string of bangers then everything else just was nowhere near as good. the timeline matches perfectly to when he was with this german visual artist (lena gieseke). he's done some good work in collaboration, but if things were dug into I suspect we would find she did a lot more than people realise.
so yeah whenever you look around like wow women didn't work in history, or, women aren't auteurs, or, there just aren't as many great female writers - societal reasons for that aside, half the time they absolutely did.
Award-winning environmental storytelling going on in the CBC election coverage coming from various watch parties for different candidates tonight: the Liberal, NDP and even Greens parties seem full of people having musical nights, celebrating and hugging, and generally sitting in full rooms, and the Conservative watch parties are quite sparse rooms of dudes standing with their arms crossed and feet apart, the classic pose for 'I'm waiting and this is getting boring'.
Which could mean nothing
...who am I kidding, it means everything, the Cons are projected to lose lmao
I’ll never forget how Democrats genuinely believed that brat summer would make Kamala appealing enough to win the election
a woman will see a game about raping women and be like "wow, its absolutely disgusting that someone made a game about raping women, i dont think a game platform should be selling a game about raping women" and people online will scream at her and call her a pro-censorship puritan fascist

terminally online schizo rant incoming. “puriteen” is just what Epic Bacon Faillennials call little girls who are negatively responding to or critiquing the hegemonic culture of sex. as someone in this age group, i rebuke this part of my culture. the “sex positivity” mindset has simply entrenched male supremacy, rape culture, and the sexual subordination of women, because it flattens, obfuscates, and ignores how exploitation and abuse occurs. younger women and girls are contending with the fact that the predominant model of “consent” and “choice” are insufficient tools to assess sexual violence, and these concepts have been used to endorse said violence. liberal feminism has done nothing but condition women and girls into complying with male supremacy by eroticizing both women’s oppression and male power, and more and more people are unraveling this to the chagrin of the Epic Bacon demographic that pioneered this toothless ideology. “ruthless criticism of all that exists, ruthless both in the sense of not being afraid of the results it arrives at and in the sense of being just as little afraid of conflict with the powers that be”—leftists happily apply this marxist concept to everything except what makes them orgasm. curious and revealing, indeed.
thus, the “puriteens” insult is an attempt to shame girls back into compliance, to be silent about the terms by which men have sexual access to women, a grim reality they see play out on a daily basis both online and off. both the left and the right agree that patriarchy is compatible with the world they want to build or maintain, and as a result, the feminist insistence on the abolition of patriarchy is the most radical, most revolutionary demand on earth. women’s allies and enemies want them to remain in chains. hell, many women want to be in chains. unfortunately, your friends lied to you when they said patriarchy is right wing. it transcends the political compass as no one can imagine a world without it. leftists only oppose capitalism and wage labor and slavery and racism and queerphobia and imperialism and ableism and war and the prison industrial complex because these systems of exploitation victimize men. men are humans, women are not, so they find misogyny permissible. things are much worse than you think, milady.
and as a result of all this, leftists are not beyond calling women and girls sexually dysfunctional, crazy, or not sufficiently fucked enough for opposing their own sexual subordination. something is wrong with you if you can identify, even through millions of layers of progressive-sounding obfuscation and gaslighting, women’s sexual subordination. men who complain about having less sexual access to women are coddled, catered to, thought to be victims of a “loneliness epidemic” that can only be solved by women’s submission or else they can’t help but engage in femicide, while the women who oppose said submission are called “puritans,” prudes, hysterical, underfucked, fascists and insane. i can’t count the number of times i’ve said that actual puritans were not even anti-sex—they supported men’s sexual dominance over women. the insult is ahistorical, but its function is to cast feminist critique of sex as wrong by likening it to being right wing. the right obviously isn’t anti-sex either, nor do they take kindly to feminism. all of that is to say, “puriteen” is primarily a misogynistic silencing tactic.
under the strict regime of heterosexuality, women and girls will be cast as mentally ill if they have class consciousness. having class consciousness as a woman renders you the ultimate enemy that must be neutralized, because we can’t have women opposing their duty as property. if women became human beings, that would just upend the earth, destroying the foundations of society, which is exactly what I and my brand of girlypops desire. girls who are called “puriteens” may make analytical errors, as we all do, but they are met with so much hostility because they actually do attempt to criticize all that exists, including the sexual cultural that is objectively organized through male supremacy, and they do attempt to commit the one transgression that eclipses all other transgressions—believing that women are human. to that i say, godspeed, puriteens, become even woker, shake the table, do not be silenced by these geriatric gooners and their 50 gigabytes of furry inflation porn. critical support to all puriteens of the world.
Oh my god it’s so close I’m so stressed right now
