Hi! I'm alive!

So I commented on a meme the other day (I do still read here, although not as much as I once did) and I actually got questions back! It's been quite some time since I wrote here instead of my blog, so I thought it might be fun, if anyone still reads here!

1. Standard question: If you could live anywhere in North America right now, where would it

Ah, the Literature of Passing. Who knew it would come in handy? And who knew I'd ever encounter the miserable writings of Judith Butler again?

I like your answers!!

Oh, I'd forgotten her. I believe she was the one who was annoying with a lower-case "a" because she didn't believe in capitals, right?

[shashalnikya]

She was the one who wrote impenetrable articles with tons of made-up words. We were supposed to read her for some reason. A lot of her stuff is about REALLY ABSTRACT gender theory.

"Gender, it's not just for people anymore and romance languages!"

[lietya]

are you thinking of "bell hooks" there? though I don't recall now if she hated all capitals or just her name's...

Butler's kind of legendary for being a) incomprehensible and b) sort of obnoxious if you DO manage to translate what she's yammering on about.
