Polyester Doll, Heathen Queen |
This is a personal blog, which is full of my favorite random things, including my own artwork (which is clearly noted ) but mostly things I love! I am currently obsessed with metal and pop music, castles, Pagan symbols, childhood feelings, pastel gore, and fairy tales. I have a lifetime love affair with horror movies, glitter, and queer fabulousness . |
Everything makes me grumpy.
I’m totally ok with being addicted to (intersectional) feminist media criticism. To boil it down pretty hard, the culture I exist in is one in which media is near inescapable. Because of this, the producers of knowledge within mainstream media hold significant powers over the way consumers of culture treat various identities, and you’re damn right I’m going to use the tools at hand to dismantle that power structure, even if it’s day to day personal awareness. To tell somebody that they’re “making it up” or “grasping at straws” when it comes to analyzing problematic forms of media is basically implying that we are placing these representations in media, which removes all context, accountability, and reality of power structures within produced knowledge.
