“You think I should have a hobby. Now what would that be? Hanging around a derelict library with you, your poorly-socialized guard dog, and Bear here?”
Sameen Shaw is quickly becoming my new favourite character on this show and I’ve only seen her in 2 episodes so far. Granted her introductory episode was FIRE. Well… she was FIRE in it. Not so much it.
Looks like she’s planning to track Root down. And the enemies-to-lovers cat and mouse chase begins. 🤗
Plus Tracie Thoms is in this episode. I like her too.

You'll never find me here
هرگز "مـ😏ـن" را اینجا پیدا نخواهید کرد
ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ
مدتها بود که یک فیلم درست و حسابی در حال‌وهوای کافکایی ندیده بودم
میتوانم به دوستداران این مدل فضا ، نوید آنرا بدهم که این فیلم چنین عنصری در اتمسفرش پیدا میشود
.
البته مد نظر داشته باشید که فیلمساز به هیچ وجه قصدش ساخت فیلمی در سبک کافکایی نبوده بلکه به نظر من فقط مدلی از آن حال‌وهوا در فیلم او جاری‌ست ، که این خود یک امتیاز برای جذاب تر شدن فیلم محسوب میشود
Tumblr media
برگردیم به کندوکاو در فیلم ،
آن ساختمان که سر به فلک کشیده آن هوای زمستانی و آن "رنگ و نور" سرد پخش شده در سرتاسر فیلم و آن جمله های ابتدایی به ما خبر از یک قصه خاکستری میدهد
خاکستری که در کل زندگی پاشیده شده و فقط پناهـ گاهی دنج میتواند آنرا تحمل پذیر کند
.
فیلم پر هست از نکته های باحال تصویری و دیالوگی تاکه راهنمایی باشن برای گذر از مسیر های فرعی فیلم تا رسیدن به جاده اصلی مد نظر فیلمساز
مثلا
در همان ابتدا تقابل جملات انگیزشی و فضای سرد خاکستری که در انتها مشخص است کدام پیروز این میدان نشان از خوش فکری فیلمساز است
یا
حریم(خلوت)شخصی را ، با لزوم پارتیشن داشتین دو میز نزدیک هم برای افراد "اهل خلوت" نشان میدهد
ارزش واقعیت را ، در آن نقاشی کودکانه نشان میدهد
لزوم خروج و خالی شدن و لذت پس آن را ، با سه نشونه کنار هم "اتاق دنج و دستشویی و تابلو خروج" نشان میدهد
راحتی پیدا کردن در مفهوم "خالی و خلوت" را ، با پارکینگ شلوغ نشان میدهد
تبلور دوستــداشتن های ذهنی را ، در رابطه اورسن و آلیسا نشان میدهد
و …و …و
اما این ها همه مسیرهایی هستند برای رسیدن به مسیر اصلی
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
حتی
در فیلم "پدیده واقعیت" ، که چیست ، مهم نیست بلکه بهره ای که از "آن پدیده" تراوش میشود مهم است
تاکه بعد این "چرا" را در ذهن بیننده تولید کند
که "چرا ؟" اکثریت مردم در حال طناب پیچ کردن خود با واقعیت های تحمیلی هستند که از آن بهره نمیبرند و در عوض اگه بهره‌ای از جایی آمد که با واقعیت های معمول جور نبود به سوی حذف آن قدم بر میدارند
.
سوال طلایی اینست
گیر دادن به واقعی و واقعی نبودن مهم‌ست یا چه بهره ای از پدیده ها میبرم مهم؟
.
دیگر جالبی فیلم در این است که شخصیت اصلی را ، فردی بدون عیب و ایراد نشان نمیدهد همچون منجی های فیلم های مارول درمقابل چنان نشان میدهد که میتواند نجات باشد آنهم فقط در نقطه‌ی لازم ، اما چون در چارچوب روال ، قدم بر نمیدارد مقبولیتش نادیده گرفته میشود
و در ادامه وقتی با واقعیت های تحمیلی نمیتواند یا نمیخواهد همرنگ شود ، سیستم حاکم مبتنی بر واقعیت معمول سعی در حذف او میکند
چرا چون این سیستم بر اساس واقعیت های خودش شکل گرفته که اگر قسمتی از آن زیر سوال برود گرداننده هراس آن دارند که کل ساختار زیر سوال برود و در نهایت از هم بپاشد و صندلیش را ببازد پس در نقشه ساختمانی‌اش چنین فضای خالی نه وجود دارد و نه در نظر گرفته میشود ، حتی شده "بهره وری" راندمان ، فدا شود میشود ، تا همچنان "آنچنان" حاکم باشد
.
برای سیستم حاکم "بهره" ، زمانی که از واقعیت معمول تراوش کند قابل قبول است
it is very important that we do the right thing in a situation like this.
ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ
Tumblr media
You'll never find me here
هرگز "مـ😏ـن" را اینجا پیدا نخواهید کرد
همگام نشدن با سیستم چنان فشاری به اینجور افراد میآورد که برای خلاصی از آن چاره ای جز فرار در خود ندارند همان خلوتـ گاه دنج و دوست داشتنی شان
و
کم پیش میآید شخصی با عوامل پشتیباتی قوی گرفتار شود و توان مقابله با مخالفان را داشته باشد
از زاویه دید "نامحرم و مقلد" سماع مولانا و اتاق دنج اورسن قابل فهم و دستیابی نیست
سکونـ ـت در اتاق و چرخیدن در سماع پنجره خروج نگاه است و البته ورود چشم‌انداز به آن فراحیات دوستداشتنی خاص شخصی که میتواند در هر کسی به شمایلی ظهور کند که اگر کرد نه گوشه گیریست نه افسردگی نه اجتماع گریزی و نه خل و چلی و نه ده ها انگ دیگر چراکه در هیچ کدام آنها که گفتم بهره‌ای ساطع نمیشود
اما حیف که پنجره است نه راه خروج ، که راه خروج ، با پله‌ست نه آسانسور
و نقطه ضعف ش، در کلید روشنایی‌ست که بیرون اتاق‌ست نه داخلـ🥺ـ آن
ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ
Tumblr media
THE AUTHORITY INC
شرکت اقتدار
اکنون میخواهم فرای تمثیل کارمند و شرکت اقتدار در فیلم ، مثالی دیگر از سیستم های اقتدارگرای حاکم زده باشم
.
میخواهیم وارد رابطه ای شویم
سیستم در "ظاهر امر" به بهره خوشی ما از دید ما در آن رابطه اهمیت میدهد
در واقعیت سیستم حاکم پیش فرض هایی مثل سن ، قیافه ، اندام ، درآمد و غیر را تعیین کرده که اگر طبق دیدگاه او پیش نرویم آنقدر آنرا گوشزد میکند که یا ما نیز عین بقیه افراد آن شبکه میشویم و آن رابطه را ��نسل میکنیم یا از طرف سیستم و شبکه های متصل به آن طرد و حذف میشویم
حتی اگر بدانیم همه چیز "پول" نیست یا فلان چیز و فلان چیز هم نیست
Money isn't everything
فقط پافشاری مدت دار بیش از عمر یک فرد و دارای کثرت میتواند در آن سیستم فرهنگی تغییر ایجاد کند
واقعا داشتم میرفتم کـ🥺ـه
ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ
در آخر به یک نکته ضروری اشاره کنم که در جایی ندیم و اکثرا آنرا اشتباه میگیرند که من برای آن اصطلاح کمدی کافکایی را مناسب تر دیدم و البته که در فیلم نیز جاری ست
Kafkaesque comedy
کمدی کافکایی مزه ی طنزی دارد خاص خودش
یعنی در لحظه بیان طنز شیرینی دارد اما در کل "مطلبِ تلخ" است که تلخ میشود
پس در ژانر طنز "تلخ یا سیاه" محض جای نمیگیرد اما جدا از آن هم نیست
ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ.ـ
حال شما را به صرف اندیشه ، روی ترانه‌‌ی آخر فیلم دعوت میکنم که به اندازه فیلم توجه مرا جلب کرد
در پست بعدی تحلیل این ترانه فوق‌العاده را خواهم گذاشت و یک دست‌مریزاد به فیلمساز برای این انتخابش که فیلمش را اینچنین تمام‌و کمال کرد
5/5⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

hi sarah. feel free to delete this if it’s too much, but do you know of any work (academic, personal essays, art, etc) about grieving someone who’s died to suicide/wishing they were alive while also grappling with how to square it with your anti-psych, anti-carceral, pro-bodily autonomy politics? for reference i’ve read Alexandre Baril’s paper on Suicidism before and may revisit it in this light, as well as aleks thom's writing on disenfranchised grief and your lovely recent poem about suicide, but i’m sort of at a loss about where to look for other work about the intersection of these specific topics. many thanks and much love in advance
thank you so much for asking! i feel strange saying "i'm sorry for your loss" because it's clichéd and trite and you've heard it a billion times before. i am sorry, though, and i am equally sorry that you carry your loss into a world that is so deeply hostile to everyone affected by suicide – loved ones, those who have attempted, those who have completed, those who are dealing with suicidal thoughts, all of us.
i think that perhaps the most useful thing to remember is a bit simpler and a lot more challenging than can be conveyed in a paper or poem. it's that peoples' bodyminds are their own, including when they treat said bodyminds in ways we on the outside don't like. this is true for people who do all manner of "unhealthy" and "self-harmful" things, and as loved ones, it's incredibly fucking hard to witness, especially when the consequences are deadly.
suicide grief, and in general, work by loved ones and caregivers to those of us who experience extreme states, is pretty tough to find in the area of Mad studies. this is partially justified, given the degree to which we've all been spoken over and around by abusive "caregivers." yet it also denies the simultaneity embedded in basically any Mad community: we are all both, because we're all together and hurting at once.
i actually have two friends who have written about their own experiences as suicidal + Mad people who have lost close people to suicide: MT Vallerta, a scholar-poet [check out In Memoriam], and poet S.G. Huerta [you should read their poetry book, Last Stop].
Sophie Lewis also wrote an intriguing piece that touches on suicidality, death doulaing, and kinship.
Emily Krebs studies suicide/bereavement from a Mad crip abolitionist perspective, and is worth checking out.
i think it's also a good idea to remember that a way to honor those who have completed suicide is to take better care of suicidal people who are still alive. it only does more harm to suicidal people to approach ideation/attempts carcerally, and indeed encourages more covert, risky, and isolated methods rather than open dialogue. here are some ways to honor - not only support, but truly honor, trust, and respect suicidal people:
candidly speak about death, self-harm, and "dark thoughts" - and what to do around them - before and outside of immediate crises. be explicit in your intentions to support those who are actively suicidal before the next crisis occurs. ask people their preferences - who should you call? is the hospital ever on the table, and if so, under what conditions? who will be there to advocate for them when interacting with carceral authorities?
be candid about how their actions affect you, without placing blame. when someone attempts suicide, everyone they love is affected. this is not the person's fault, but it is something that needs to be addressed in community. here's an example from my own life: a dear friend was forcibly hospitalized after an attempt. i had been a main support person of hers in previous crises, when we lived near each other. when we spoke about her experience months later, i admitted that i felt "guilty" and as though i had somehow caused her to be institutionalized by living in a different place now. she admitted to me that she felt "guilty" for having "let [her loved ones] down" and "letting" her health deteriorate. we were able to find comfort and commonality in our affective experiences, and have become better friends for it.
cool it with the solutions. ask for consent before doing anything, but especially giving advice. many people kill themselves, or try to, because they feel cornered - often for very logical reasons (poverty, oppression, abuse/complex trauma). the adage that a poor person probably has more financial wisdom than a rich advice-giver holds true here, so don't immediately offer tips unless they've asked for them. sometimes, suicidality isn't connected to anything concrete, either, or a person's reasoning doesn't "make sense" (duh). if someone has the courage and trust to come to you with their feelings of suicidality, what they need most is someone to listen, to take them seriously, and to afford them the same personhood that they would have otherwise.
when people disclose thoughts of suicide, they take an immense risk in terms of their safety and credibility, and they do so because it is not possible to be a person alone. but, we also need to hold simultaneously that the individuals who do their best to support a loved one, but are not equipped to do so, are also not at fault for somehow "killing" them. suicide is incredibly complex, and suicide grief perhaps even moreso than other types of grief.
i also don't have concrete answers as to what to do about this conflict between our emotions around suicide - wanting to save a person we love, wanting them to stop hurting, being willing to do anything to keep them around - and imagining a world against and beyond the institution in all its permutations. but i know we will move toward it together through open conversation and trust and collective risk. much love and respect to you for asking such a challenging question during a heartbreaking time. <3

Hi Sophie. I enjoy reading your longer Tumblr posts. It's been a while since I've read a leftwing essayist whose work has really grabbed me. Any recommendations for modern leftwing essayists whose work is worth reading? (articles, columns, editorials, online magazines, etc.)
Honestly most of my work (and long tumblr posts, which I suppose are still work kind of lmao patreon dot com slash sophie from mars) is informed by books and those tend to be older, like I wanted to say bell hooks for a second now and then I remembered that she died in 2021 (rip). Maybe it's just that there's so much good theory to get through that's already stood the test of time, but I appreciate the question so as much as I'm currently enjoying Kierkegaard's the Sickness Unto Death i know it's not what you're asking for in like 6 diffferent ways.
The problem with recommending contemporary stuff is that you can never recommend anything in gestalt and i wouldn't expect people to recommend me as always totally good either but I hope that's understood. I'm subscribed to Organise! magazine and I think they regularly publish really sound political analysis. If you are interested in books, I had Half-Earth Socialism on preorder and I've been enjoying that since it came out. Not writing, but I think the Seriously Wrong Podcast boys are the best ones doing it right now, their stuff is very well researched, written and argued and delivered in a fun and humorous style as well.
I like a lot of feminist authors at the moment. It was feminism that brought me to the left in the first place and I've basically always said that marxism (or equally anarchism) without a feminist lens is essentially useless. I think that feminists have been leading the charge in properly analysing and understanding systematic and structural violence and oppression for a long time, especially trans feminists like Julia Serano or black feminists like, again, bell hooks. but since your question is about contemporary writers who write articles / essays etc, I really like Amia Srinivasan (her essay collection The Right To Sex is utterly astonishing), Catherine Angel (Tomorrow Sex Will Be Good Again is a book that changed my life), Kai Cheng Thom (her substack is great and her book I Hope We Choose Love is fantastic too). I also quite like Clementine Morrigan, her articles explore quite uncomfortable conversations about anti-carceral approaches to social justice and trauma, and her podcast is actually where I heard an interview with Catherine Angel which is why I ended up buying her book.
I know you didn't ask for books but I can't let a recommendations post go by at the moment without talking about Abolition Revolution by Shanice Octavia McBean and Aviah Sarah Day because it is simply occupying SO much of my brain at the moment
thanks for the question
