@two-hands-toward-the-sun
so the gist of this hypothetical dissertation would be talking about queerness as an embodied concept in the OG sandman comix - namely how queerness becomes elided with bodily autonomy (or lack thereof). from my proposed triad, clearly i am thinking about the Corinthian, but i'd also want to talk about Wanda, Desire, Hazel and Foxglove. i'd be situating my analysis in relation to the AIDS crisis (which informs a lot of the comix), alongside a foucaultian understanding of biopolitics (whose bodies are seen as expendable and to what extent, whose bodies are under surveillance/control, etc).
some thoughts i'd want to explore: Wanda's womanhood and how it's realized through the medium but also contested among the powers that be - ritual magic vs the Endless. Desire as a villain and nonbinary identities as a disruption to spacetime as a storied concept. the Corinthian as specifically queer horror: he preys on young men, outing them in their deaths, and he's the worst case scenario of cruising, which involves a lot of vulnerability in the face of societal violence. (VERY interesting, also, that the second Corinthian's "redemption," so to speak, involves saving a small [read: innocent] child from violence and no real address of the desire that had him [heavily implied] sleeping with his victims.) who "gets" to embody queerness and what are the limits on that expression? what does queerness "look like" in the sandman universe? how are these bodies regulated/surveilled? there's a lot of overlap with queerness, violence, and/or disease in the sandman comix that reflects the ideas of the period in which it was made, but also...imho...deserves serious critique.
#ask games#sandman#i'm SURE someone has written an article on wanda. i'm sure. that has to exist.#from my worldcat and jstor searches it doesn't seem like anyone has attempted to do an article#that untangles Coco's Whole Deal#what's the thesis of this diss? well you see i would write it and then figure that out. peace and love on planet earth.

jstor reblogging me is up there with jacob clifton liking one of my tweets about the uselessness of discussing if we are “meant” for monogamy or not
it’s a Good Internet day
#JSTOR MY LOVE#and they even came in with the most jstor tags all “or you could frame this even MORE positively about yourself”#jstor i love you i never say this but i am kissing you on the mouth. respectfully of course.

I often watch footage to help me understand machines, processes and eras so I can be more descriptive or find plot opportunities. (The church organ rabbit hole was particularly fun, the adding machine one not so much.) This 1981 "I'm trying to make periodicals hip and sexy" short on microfilm readers is making me break out in a cold sweat

Secondo: "If we collect every local newspaper and read the classifieds starting in 1964 to now, maybe we can find who this Mr. S is."
Primo: "Can we go back to me being shot at?"
Tagging my academic ghesties @historian-crown @gravehags and @delullu

Do you have thoughts about Baby Henry and his Great Aunt Matilda?
Oh BOY do I.
I could literally go on and on forever but I should redirect you to this entire fic which is basically a coherent, carefully constructed, novel of those thoughts:
(Those with an astute eye will notice that I call Matilda Henry’s aunt, as in his fathers sister, as opposed to his great aunt. Maybe this is due to the copious amounts of inheritance fuckery brought up in the first chapter. Maybe I forgot because rereading nothing but shadows makes me sad. Maybe I can make it work and I’m going with it.)
#*smacking four year old Henry on the head* this bad boy can hold so many childhood symptoms of autism#look at him. he had no friends. didn't respond when people called his name. zero imitating of the adults around him.#would scream bloody murder if you tried to take something he liked away from him. absolutely did not babble.#probably didn't talk until he was like five. is picking up on no one elses emotions. never seems to waver from “:)” regardless ofenvironmen#anyways. I’m crawling all over the wall connecting random sentences from the books together with red string#Dissecting this shit to the core#Used my Jstor account to go study the York dialect in the 1850s#Which is different than just the accent btw#because I connected the dots#I can make that mistake work actually#Add it to “mistakes I make that actually make sense”#Gloria Branwell does not like her in-laws. Or her husband. Or anyone honestly#plus the inheritance fuckery happening brought up in the first chapter#So a lot of relationships are being being blurred#its worth noting that for all intents and purposes Henry did think she was his great aunt#Which is mostly because a) his mother hated her and b) she died when he was like ten#and therefore died way younger than one would assume she would have.#anyways I love that fic#of all my fics (despite the glaring mistake that I genuinely cannot believe I made what the fuck caterpillar) that one is like#the most detailed#most carefully built up#most “could be inserted into canon”

Today I learned (again) that waiting until the due date to do two intensive writing assignments is NOT fun. But also I got them both done on time so I will not carry this lesson with me into the future (again).

enjoying reading academic journals & books is a different kind of joy especially when it's a subject you enjoy dwelling in ya'know
#jstor my beloved#i love hanging out with you#i cannot believe i am saying this but doing my masters is a joy....especially bc the past year & few months have been ultimate shits#it creates the perfect diversion right now#i enjoy watching shows in-between my studies...eat...stay hydrated and take baths...sleeping is still difficult for me though#but yeah apart from dealing with “this” matter with my father over email i think i am okay#i need to be less anxious though#my head likes to think it has it's own autonomy...#which is weird...& offensive bc dude you're a part of me#just because you're sitting right at the top doesn't mean you can rule over me alright?#now let's get to work...start those gears & do some actual work#other than tiring me out from overthinking the unnecessaries#personal#a:afternoonblues
