I recorded this podcast 2 weeks ago with #youth #activists from @ForesightPrep, and it's been really fascinating to watch as new info emerges abt the #Covid_19 topics that were on their minds: racial injustice in health, how to organize during social distancing, etc

I opened the book by mistake. It was intended to help our daughter: An Internal Family Systems guide to eating disorder recovery.
I’d confused IFS with FBT - Family Based Therapy - In the ED realm, I support the biological (inclusive of psychological) perspective, where FBT is gold standard.
But as I read this book - the IFS one - I started practicing its exercises on my myself, and I met a self Id never met before - what in the parlance of IFS is actually called THE self, but which this author had renamed THE WISE ONE WITHIN

@ParadiseLAust @SuziGTV Heres the main pivot (cw verbal family violence): My mom got the letter from Sarah Lawrence asking me to take a year off b/c I missed nearly all classes my second semester sophomore year. She told me I was causing her more pain then I caused during childbirth …
@ParadiseLAust @SuziGTV … *(exceedingly difficult long labor ending in c section and severe blood loss and postpartum), as much pain as my father caused the time her hit her, and to take Jones out of my last name because only Yelvingtons do this to each other…
@ParadiseLAust @SuziGTV And went out with my stepdad and asked me to be gone in an hour - I knew she’d take it back if I didn’t listen (which she attempted by email 2 days later), but that time I decided to listen and left.

@kylebeachy I had a similar reaction. Form is also excluded to the extent that Lincoln's chart leaves out any and all metafictions or other texts that call attention to their textyness.
@kylebeachy + also... challenging language as a tool of power by scrambling the sign-signifier relationship, or engaging in various strategies that destabilize the normative relationship between form and content, are both practices that have been foundational to various queer avant gardes...
@kylebeachy ... and to the relationship that queer people and other marginalized ppl have to the fantasy/reality binary. I often think the most radical and interesting thing that I can do w/ my work is speak in code or risk unintelligibility to the broadest audience ...

@doctorflopsy @Fatalisme_actif @scumbelievable @octocron This is a really important convo. The "boundaries" I meant are fortifications built either around the individual who reps for power, or their institutions, to prevent their being "corrupted" by an "other" whose practices have been constructed as deviant to justify oppression...
@doctorflopsy @Fatalisme_actif @scumbelievable @octocron ...as opposed to those that marginalized people must maintain defensively. ...
@doctorflopsy @Fatalisme_actif @scumbelievable @octocron When I read @reproutopia's octopus analysis, what it made me think abt was the intro to Anne McClintock's book IMPERIAL LEATHER, which I read a million years ago in an undergrad class ...

This octopus / queer erotics kerfuffle that @reproutopia and @gracellavery are having to endure is emblematic of how grossly divorced our fetishistic and Puritanic conception of sexuality and erotics is from our bodies, nature and beings.
Like our our "selves" or "souls," we see sex as a specialized, boundaried, shameful titillation rather than something that flows in and through everything.
desexualizing the definition of 'erotics' it seems to me isn't the answer, that's as troubling as reducing 'sex' to intercourse.
