When we cannot put ourselves together, we tear ourselves apart. This is true no matter who we are, no matter what reason we have for not fitting into the lives we’re given. Esther [from In My Skin] never explains why she needs to destroy herself, yet the answer is always right in front of us. Why does any animal chew its own leg off? Because it’s trapped.

Jude Ellison S. Doyle, "The Healed Body" from It Came from the Closet: Queer Reflections on Horror

Memoir is the most dangerous genre because, if you get it wrong, people will wind up hating the author. They won’t realize they’re reacting to bad writing; the slightest warp in the lens, the least little wobble or bad word choice, makes you, the writer, look vain or cruel or stupid. Memoir is also a deeply unethical genre because, if you get it right, people will believe they know and love you, when the truth is that they only know a character you created.

—Jude Ellison S. Doyle, from "The Art Monster at the End of This Book"

As a queer person in 2023, most of my friends are non-monogamous or polyamorous. Even those who are monogamous don’t believe that arrangement is morally superior; it might just be more convenient, or more to our taste. There is an understanding, at least among queer people, that compulsory monogamy is like compulsory heterosexuality or binary gender — a restrictive social norm that simply will not work for everyone.

For all the condemnation poured on Nin, she might just not have been monogamous. She needed to be with multiple partners, as many people do, and her unethical or cruel way of pursuing that freedom was at least partly the result of living in a time and place where there were no real models for non-monogamous partnerships.

Or, rather, there were models, but they were male. Men of Nin’s era were never expected to be faithful. It was understood that people married young, often for economic reasons rather than personal ones, and that as he got older, a man would take mistresses in order to have the sexual and romantic experiences that were not part of his marriage. This is precisely what Nin did, with the genders reversed, and many serious people have spent decades hating her for it. Her reputation has been ruined over behavior that, if she were a man — if she were Hemingway, Sartre, Kerouac, Updike, if she were goddamn Picasso — would simply be part of the legend.

Pollack saw miracles in the world, and she was someone who taught other people to see them. Most famously, she did this through the Tarot; she was a world-renowned expert on the cards, consulted and cited by authors like Alexander Chee and Neil Gaiman. Her book on the Rider-Waite, 78 Degrees of Wisdom, is the go-to text for anyone trying to learn the cards. Yet the number and diversity of Pollack’s accomplishments make it hard to sum her up: She was an activist. She was an award-winning science fiction novelist. She was a comic book writer, who created what is widely cited as the world’s first trans superheroine, Coagula, for DC Comics’ Doom Patrol.

"Rachel Pollack’s vision of spirituality may be her greatest accomplishment" by Jude Ellison S. Doyle This article is a great tribute to an amazing writer and wonderful human.

The Neighbors 1 #

[frammento]

Per ogni femme fatale immaginaria che usa la propria sessualità come un’arma per la distruzione dei maschi, c’è una donna reale che è stata stuprata da un ragazzo o palpeggiata dal proprio capo; per ogni ninfa crudele che affoga il proprio amante o sirena ammaliatrice che lo induce a schiantarsi contro le rocce, c’è una donna la cui esistenza è stata bloccata, limitata o conclusa da un uomo. È facile pensare di essere la sirena, identificarsi con la sposa fatata che può proibire agli uomini di toccarla o guardarla e dimenticare la sposa umana, brutalizzata, torturata e bruciata per aver mostrato un inaccettabile bagliore di autonomia. Ma è più probabile essere la regola che l’eccezione, essere le troie ammazzate piuttosto che le final girl.

The Neighbors by Jude Ellison S. Doyle with art by Letizia Cardonici from BOOM! Studios is the perfect Halloween comic book read.

“When Janet and Oliver Gowdie move to a quaint mountain town, their daughter Casey becomes part of a horrific chain of events revealing that their neighbors are anything but what they seem. Soon an unsettling old woman named Agnes Early fixates on Janet and Oliver's other daughter-2-year-old Isobel.

Doyle (Maw) joins artist Letizia Cadonici (House of Slaughter), and colorist Alessandro Santoro (Bloom) to tread new ground in changeling horror. A tale perfect for fans of Eat the Rich and The Nice House on the Lake!”
