why would I hate gender? That would be like me hating polygamy and group marriage. Gender is a real abstraction which corresponds to definite social relations. Were you dropped on your head as a toddler and talk like a 5 year old?

As for the 'genocidal fascism and cultural erasure of queers' surely it is exactly tolerant and ever so enlightened two party democracy which in part caused this? The democrats kicking the ball down the road with rowe v wade and using reproductive rights as a bludgeon against republicans for 40+ years. Why can't we get along, indeed. Which is your problem, you are such a pacifist that you don't have a problem with the American right assuming power so long as it is done with consecrations at the alter of democracy.

You'd hate gender because you hate democracy and the two are inseparable. No democracy without freedom of gender expression.
You are so far away from understanding the American left. Just know that, in America, what I do supports the only viable path to socialism, the democratic kind. I am the one fighting for increased representation of queer culture, which you have never done anything for.


And subvert, don't you dislike Gang of Four? That's one of my favorite bands. You're probably not tuned into my frequency, indie rock is da best. There's a reason indie rock has represented the forefront of rock music for over two decades now.
Next you're going to tell me this isn't one of the greatest guitar songs ever:

I'm sure Jair Bolsonaro would be delighted to know you agree with him. 'Democracy to massacre communists is based, actually.' Freedom of expression for the oppressor!

thought chava synthesising dj sprinkles with Jordan B. Peterson was crazy but this has to take the cake. Judith Butler Jair Bolsonaro synthesis!

Thanks, I guess? You're an entertaining cracker!

I think this Guardian article about Moby's second autohagiography subliminally prompted me to make a mistaken, albeit drunken, amazon purchase earlier this evening

and @malelesbian's gtp psyop prompts are the Manchurian Candidate card trigger that launched me into unconscious action

Moby drops E and some celebrity names post-Glastonbury

As Play sells more and more copies, Moby finds it easier and easier to become promiscuous. “To keep myself from feeling creepy and ethically compromised, I told myself I was looking for love,” but his panic attacks keep him from pursuing relationships. Nevertheless, tonight, after Glastonbury 2000, a woman named Becks is charitable enough to spend the night with Moby. Although “usually Irish women were reserved”, says Moby, Becks is OK with him ripping the mirror off the wall of his “generic, but large” hotel suite and positioning it so that they can watch themselves having sex. The ecstasy may have helped.

“We spent the next few hours having sex and looking into each other’s eyes, and by the time we were done, it was late and most of the people at the party had left. Someone in the living room put on London Calling, but Joe Strummer, who apparently was still there, yelled: ‘Oh, fuck no!’”

After a brief interlude for cocaine, Moby goes in for the pillow talk. “I lay there, smiling and spooning beautiful Becks. As I was falling asleep, I heard Golden Years playing in the other room.

‘Can I tell you something?’ I asked.

‘Please,’ she said sleepily.

‘David Bowie’s my neighbour.’”

Some chapters later, Bowie comes round to Moby’s house, then Moby goes round to his house. Iman, Lou Reed and Laurie Anderson are there.

I've just paid hard earned cash for this shite for the same reason I've previously bought Julie Burchill books in the past: pure hate reading

I already told you I suck at International Relations. I know nothing about Brazilian politics.

I remember reading this article at the time and thinking it read like Glamorama.

For now, he and Lauren meet up with Bono, Michael Stipe and Salman Rushdie at the club, and Bono tells Moby he loved the Animal Rights album, and that he loves him. Moby tells Bono he loves him, too. Moby goes back to Lauren’s house to have sex. She has a dog as well. A rottweiler.

not the best Brett Easton Ellis but smacked of a certain Vice vibe

maybe in ten years time I'll re-evaluate and declare it a prescient masterpiece

or... maybe I will now given the number of instagram / only fans models who have executed murders

There are these absurd guest lists of incongruous celebrities at the start, like the lists of food and outfits in American Psycho. It's like that bit above. Bono and Salman Rushdie in the club.

I've never enjoyed Bret Easton Ellis. I'd rather watch Zoolander than read Glamorama.

I liked Less than Zero, The Rules of Attraction and American Psycho.

Glamorama and Lunar Park had their moments, but the former went on for too long and got away from him and the latter was just a bit naff and cheesy. I haven't read the others.

I stumbled across a recent book which sounded like another stab at the Glamorama thing.

After waking up with a strange taste in her mouth and mysterious bruises, former child beauty queen Jessica Clink unwittingly begins an investigation into a nefarious deep state underworld. Equipped with the eccentric education of her father, Dr. Clink (a professor of Boredom Studies and the founder of an elite study group on idleness, affect, and crime known as “The Devil’s Workshop”), Jessica uncovers a disquieting connection between her former life as a pageant queen and an offshoot of Project MKUltra known as MONARCH.

American Psycho blows. It lacks emotion and morality. The yuppies it depicts differ from the Brooklyn hipsters, though I admit some of those transplants have been Batemans all along. Brooklyn at its finest was a class-defying smorgasboard of multiculturalism, multimedia and unabashed creativity. Sounds corny I know, but ol' Bret could never. Bret is one of the few authors I consider as bad as Sade, though I'm sure he'd take that as a compliment.

the whole point of the novel is that:
It lacks emotion and morality
