How I forgot Happy of the End (2024) when I literally have watched it like three times, have read all the manga & have tattoo plans for it, I have no idea

Gotta tell you, being an academic studying American Masculinity & sexuality in media right now is a different kind of wild. When I started studying a decade ago we used to joke that these topics (religion, sex) used to be taboo, now they're just plain censored and in some cases outlawed. Insanity.

Going back to my DragonAge: Inquisition chapter after how many years is making my head spin. Oh Solas, newbies will never understand the power your great dome had on us all back in 2014.

Why yes, the last week of PhD before hand in is treating me splendidly, how about you?

Really feeling the deep urge to do something (event, club night, conference) where we celebrate some really bad, trashy and nsfw games just to give some kind of middle finger to the current climate right now. We need to John Waters this shit.

I can bear many things in the fictional worlds and media I consume, but bitch taking cookies out the oven and they're ALREADY DECORATED & ICED is sending me.

Why yes I am studying for a biblical studies PhD about Jesus, why do you ask? *surreptitiously closes multiple tabs on the death drive, self annihilation desires and sadomasochism*

Teaching a PhD workshop today and I’m thinking that my elaborate BL watchlist spreadsheet is not gunna be the most PC example of “do you really love a subject if you don’t make a spreadsheet of it?”

Do you understand how much more appealing these ideas are rather than the “omg I think I’m actually stupid” day to day reality of writing a phd? I could be writing fiction!
April 6, 2025 at 6:05 AM
The closer I get to my final hand-in for the phd the more random ideas for novels, games and projects I get flooding into my head.

My Google Keep looks like its being used by a team of sunlight-deprived writers who haven’t ever met and definitely aren’t talking to each other.

Kenji Eno’s D was 1995 - that was very creepy. Before that it was definitely 1992’s Darkseed for me!

All of this is to say that David Lynch always felt special to me. He was prominent in every stage of my life, in relationships with family, friends, art and study.

It felt like he always gave me permission to be unique, to be weird, but also, to be human.
