You shake yourself awake in the cold North Atlantic water. You are not online. It is July of 1858. You are a baleen whale, and you have changed your mind. The future most not come to pass. The telegraph cable must break.

From the 1966 Sunset Magazine “Sunset Cook Book of Breads”
A black and white photo from an old baking cookbook which shows how to shape the dough for a crown brioche. It looks suspiciously like a certain obscene meme picture (goatse) that Bluesky just banned.

When Dick Durbin leaves office every IL resident should get a change to throw a rock at him. Not a big rock, like a pebble, but enough he can feel it.

I hate that every week there's something stupid like an Everyone Has To Drink Pee Now Bill and the alert sounds to CALL YOUR REPRESENTATIVES THIS IS NOT A DRILL and you really wish you could just trust them to not go for the pee drinking bill

PORN IS ART, PORN IS GOOD, PEOPLE MAKING PORN IS A SIGN OF A HEALTHY SOCIETY

There has been a noticeable reticence in left and liberal circles to voice full-throated support for pornography, even as it's become increasingly clear what the open end goals of the censorship movement are

In a lot of ways other leftists chose this path folks. They shrugged and didn’t care when Patreon banned a ton of hypnosis and TF creators, or when YouTube started their ASMR crackdown. Now it’s coming for queer porn creators, more and more. Who will stand up?

A few messages seen today in Chicago’s Uptown neighborhood
A poster on a pole next to a street says: “ICE YOU ARE NOT INVISIBLE !RECORD! !RECORD! !RECORD! NAZI RATS LEAVE OUR CITY” A stack of posters featuring a hammer-wielding figure with the stars of the Chicago wrapped around his torso. It says: “I PREFER MY ICE CRUSHED. END IMMIGRATION ARRESTS, DEFEND OUR SANCTUARY” A sign in a store window says: “WE DON’T [SERVE is crossed out] FEED ICE OR PIGS! even if you steal this sign” The words “ICE OUT” are written in chalk on a sidewalk.

Just what IS "queer"? Dr. Meg-John Barker and Julia Scheele take on this complicated, beautiful, contradictory topic in their book, "QUEER: A Graphic History". Read this review by @erikamoen.bsky.social and Matthew Nolan and then go get'cher self a copy! 1/2
www.ohjoysextoy.com/queer-book/
Queer: A Graphic History, a review by Erika Moen, published on https://www.ohjoysextoy.com/queer-book on November 29, 2016 Erika draws in a soft, cartoon-y style with a pink palette. Samples of Julia Scheele's artwork appear throughout the comic as well, which are also cartoony but much more angular. Alex wears glasses, a tank top and black leggings and stands outside a big black door labeled "QUEER". Their black hair is pulled back into a bun. "Hm, you know I've always been curious..." Alex muses to themself. "Just what IS 'QUEER'?" Just as they begin to crack the door, Erika bursts in from the side of the panel, shouting, "Wait! There's some things you should know before you open that do-" Too late! Alex leans in to the room on the other side of the door, anchored only be their one hand on the doorway. They hold their free hand up to their eyes, to get a better look at the bedlam unfurling before them. It is a room packed with people all talking passionately and even arguing. Snippets of their conversations overlap, including: "I was born this way!" "Privilege!" "Marriage is a civil right!" "Gender is a performance!" "Identity is fluid!" "Marriage is a mainstream assimilation!" "'Queer' is an umbrella term!" "Why don't you make like a bisexual and NOT EXIST!" "Intersectionality!" "Sexuality is innate!" "'Queer' is a SLUR!" "We're all a little bit bi!" Alex wheels back to the other side of the door, slamming it closed. "What was THAT?" They ask in shock as they slump against the door to keep it from re-opening. "That, my friend, is the door to the world of everything "Queer" and all the concepts and discussions it harbors." Erika explains jovially. "...It can be a little overwhelming, I know." Erika is a white cis woman with short pink hair who wears a long hoody, black skirt, and tall black boots. Full transcript: https://www.ohjoysextoy.com/queer-book/ A giant copy of the book "QUEER: A Graphic History by Meg-John Barker and Julia Scheele. Published by Icon Books." appears next to Erika, who gestures at it, saying, "This invaluable book by Dr. Barker and illustrated by Scheele is a friendly introduction to the vast, deep, chaotic sea of (almost) everything 'Queer'. Ohmy gosh, I FILLED up my copy with notes on almost every page. It is required reading." Information floats by the book, adding, "$17.95, 176 pages" Reading from her own normal-sized copy of the book, Erika goes on, "The shifting ideas of sex, gender, and sexuality are looked at historically, culturally, lexicologically, biologically, psychologically, sexologically, and probably some other smart-sounding words that end in -ologically too." Holding up their hands while taking a step back, Alex replies cautiously, "Whoah now, that sounds hella academic." "That's the genius of Dr. Barker's book!" Erika continues. "It takes complex concepts and translates them into simpler explanations for the Average Joe like me who didn't major in them at a university or something. Basically, it's a crash course in queer history, philosophy, and activism." Icons float overhead showing an hourglass (for history), the head silhouette of a person stroking their chin pensively with a thought balloon emanating above them (for philosophy), and the silhouette of a raised fist (for activism). "Oo, and it's full of fun drawings!" Realizes Alex as they flip through the pages. "Ok, so if I read this, then I'll have a nice, simple cheat sheet to all the correct definitions and simple answers to my questions about queer stuff, yeah?" Asks Alex, holding up the book. "Haha, that's not really how it works." Erika explains. Narration: Something I really appreciate about Dr. Barker is how they emphasize that no definitions are "right" or set in stone. A more realistic portrait of Dr. Meg-John Barker appears, showing them with a short crop of black hair, glasses, and a coat over their top shirt layers. They explain, "One key point of queer theory is that our understandings of sex, gender, identity (and pretty much everything) are contextual. That means they have all been understood, and practiced, in very different ways over time and across cultures." (p. 17) Narration: Dr. Barker also devotes a lot of space to the contradictions, tension, and criticism of queer theory. They cover so many different perspectives and encourage you to figure out what concepts work best for you personally in your life. A sample of Scheele's artwork is on display. It shows a person on either side of a diagonal line, representing their dual experiences. On the left side, they gesture at a blackboard with a pointer and are dressed professionally in a collared blouse with a long black skirt. This version of that person says, "My activism doesn't always agree with the theories I teach, but they often overlap." On the other side of the diagonal line, the same person is now dressed casually in jeans and t-shirt, holding up a picket sign with their other fist in the air. Narration: Artist Scheele knocks it out of the park with her bold, deceptively-simple artwork. She's at her best when her drawings are literally illustrating the concepts Dr. Barker writes about. Full transcript: https://www.ohjoysextoy.com/queer-book/ Erika walks down a hall of portraits, which are illustrated by Scheele. They include: Teresa de Lauretis, Michel Foucault, Julia Serano, Cathy Cohen, Gayle Rubin, Audre Lorde, E. Patrick Johnson. She talks while gesturing with her copy of the book, "I have many large, embarrassing gaps in my education, and this book was my introduction to a lot of people and concepts that I vaguely recognized but never really studied. Honestly? I'd never even heard of a good number of the people and ideas in here at all. This book even introduced me to some ways of thinking and ideas that feel incredibly relevant to me RIGHT now, even outside of queer stuff!" "Whoah, getta load of this Foucault guy and his panopticon theory!" Exclaims Alex in front of an excerpt from the book. It features another illustration by Scheele, showing three people standing back-to-back inside a rounded room of mirrors, each reflecting the person with some distortion. The person announces, "It's hard to be 'myself' when I feel like I'm being watched all the time." Overlaid across the illustration is an excerpt of text by Barker, reading, "Foucault, however, used the panopticon to illuminate the ways in which people in contemporary societies become so aware of the various critical gazes upon them that they end up self-monitoring their own actions through fear that they might not be acceptable to others. This has developed into a culture where everybody polices themselves through fear of punishment, ridicule, and disapproval." (p. 66) Alex continues, "He wrote this in the '70s but he's describing me relationship with social media right now." "I'm sure every 18-year-old college freshman philosophy student already knew about this, but it was new to me!" Chirps Erika, unashamed at her ignorance.
