de focus van ‘critici’ op de regenboogvlag is weer een bliksemafleider (zoals ‘pride met pluimen’) die afleidt van waar pride voor zo veel mensen en organisaties wel over gaat: de geschiedenis erkennen, mijlpalen vieren, beseffen hoe ver we nog te gaan hebben.

If enforcing gender norms requires a constant state of surveillance and censorship then they probably aren't as biological or innate as you think they are

Being queer saved my life. Often we see queerness as deprivation. But when I look at my life, I saw that queerness demanded an alternative innovation from me. I had to make alternative routes; it made me curious; it made me ask, "Is this enough for me?" —Ocean Vuong

This bothers me. I publish with my nickname which is often read as masculine. It helped when I was a young journo and even - I think - now. I would not want a stranger - and esp after my death - to decide to publish me with my full name. Consent matters. bbc.com/news/entertain…

My article "Queer Discomfort: Desire and Heteronormativity in Richard Siken's Crush" was published in College Literature this month!

We are pleased to announce our newest issue! College Literature 46.4 (Fall 2019) is now available through Project MUSE. Check it out @ muse.jhu.edu/journal/215



ik was op Kunstenfestival Watou met de Sprekende Ezels: Een bezoek aan de kunsten blijkt niet zonder gevaren. Want niets bestaat dat niet iets anders aanraakt en ik dacht dat we intussen misschien voorbij homofobe humor waren. Zelfs van een sprekende ezel had ik beter verwacht.

i'm struck by how many readers get trained to read poetry as a decoding process or a riddle-solving. rather than "just" enjoying language and imagining what's happening on the page. a deer can be a symbol of something "profound." or it can be a deer. the sound "deer."
