so close! human rights actually don’t exist 💖

your grounds of critique are precisely that children do not have positive legal rights and that parents do, so focus on that.

rights discourse is always a rhetorical attempt at a power grab

i should be clear that i don’t actually have that much of a problem with the article itself; it is playing the rhetorical game within the boundaries of the legal system, trying to make an argument to protect a genuinely oppressed group. i just think we’d all be better off without appealing to rights

who cares

if you’re in spaces where you’re constantly exposed to bad takes about media you enjoy, you’re doing it wrong

“noooo don’t make derivative work i don’t like” cry harder ig you can enjoy both intellectual engagement and quirky playful little bpd memes in their respective domains

also lmao @ “the message these VNs are trying to get across” i don’t care, the author died and actually never existed. how cucked does your life have to be: “i must fulfill the teleology of this aesthetic creation by matching my interpretation with the original authorial intent” lol kys

i predict i will get another community guideline strike in the next few days, just in time to keep my account from being clean

it’s been dunked on plenty already but this is just really stupid. entirely devoid of real analysis, it’s just more “inequality le bad” and “poly people can be unhappy sometimes :o”

wow nice you figured out that authenticity is stupid, and that patriarchal husbands are pieces of shit. slow clap for the genius please. no differentiation of different styles of poly, and not even significant analysis of who the “elite” is supposed to comprise

even if polyamory was just a way for the ruling class to “have their cake and eat it too”, why is this bad? and it’s hilarious how we get a token disabled poly throwaway hero as an example at the end too - a better subtitle for this article would have been “poor good rich bad”

i’m all here for political critiques of polyamory, one of my fav articles is “Polyamory is Gay Marriage for Straight People”. but that’s because they’re not morons and actually engage in the subject matter with differentiation, specificity, and proper categorial analysis

Polyamory Is Gay Marriage for Straight People - Yasmin Nair

Excerpt: The problem with relationships is not that individuals engage in them in particular ways, but that systems compel individuals to relate to each other in particular ways. Like red roses on Val...

i dont wholeheartedly endorse the article ofc, but its infinitely more generative than this drivel

archive.is

oh i should also be clear that it seems like Molly’s relationships both in and out of her marriage were unfulfilling, but again this doesn’t speak much to anything and can be entirely explained through bog standard feminist analysis. “therapeutic libertarianism” is not an enlightening concept

also worth reminding ourselves that there are other ways to be critical of the ideals espoused by vulgar polyamory: Freedom as absence of constraints is perhaps a reasonable aspiration for slaves, but not for others. Nietzsche, Beyond Good and Evil, § 260.

obviously this is not to say that constraints are good categorically, or an endorsement of monog-patriarchal relationship norms by any means. what it does mean is that too fanatical a focus on freedom indicates a rather naive and immature stage of poly. better conditions give rise to higher ideals.

seriously tho i’m fucking exhausted this feels like shit

i have ambivalent and melancholy associations with early tøp and walking around my home town in autumn. i feel small today so it’s fitting i’m drawn to them right now.

omg this looks incredible what book is this?

i havent felt able to message people because it feels like it requires undivided attention that i don’t really have any more

maybe it’s also just that my social needs have been satiated and there doesn’t feel like a point

it just takes a lot of focus and energy and effort for me to pull off and i’m not really benefitting from it. lol i’ve had to put it on my to do list and schedule it out like a chore

in bed with her oscillating between dream sleep and marginally awake and i can’t tell if im talking to the real girl or dream girl at any given moment. and then i realize its been dream girl the whole time and ive just been talking to myself
