truly one of the most agonizing parts of wanting to work in the general creative space whether it be as a writer or artist or some other field is like knowing for a fact i have to hack myself up as a person into little pieces and watch as they muse of the texture and flavor and ask if thats notes of rosemary or sage and i just go "its my fucking leg man"
#translation if i get pigeonholed into being The Black Lesbian and thats all my work is known for#i will literally kill myself on tape so i am henceforth known as The Guy Who Killed Themself On Tape#idk i just think its lame when a work is labeled as feminist because it is good and written by a woman you know#or like every other fucking influence asking how it informs your work#like brother i remember that black people Exist when i write thats about the end of it#im thinking heavily about the movie american fiction rn#i think as someone who deeply admires horror the general atmosphere of Black Horror or Queer Horror having to be politicized in some since#because those very modes of existence are politicized#it like. it makes me evil dude it makes me want to crack my skull open#i dont want to be a voice of a people i just want those people to Be in the story
