linkspam

[lotesse]

(A thought I have about how to get back to Journal Fandom Vibes is that I want to link pieces of "real" writing -- i.e. not corporate/SEO -- I find around the web. The internet has been my source for this sort of writing for decades now, and I fear that it's getting harder and harder to find. Thus, linkspam!)

Jude Doyle on Jonah Hill and toxic masculinity (medium link)

Alba M. on Rimbaud and adultism (medium link)

Anne Helen Petersen on Bedrotting and Loud Quitting (substack link)

I enjoyed that masculinity article. It wasn't a direction I'd seen before but it made a lot of sense. There's tons of resources showing that abusers in therapy will use therapy language in order to abuse--seems similar.

Yeppp, it's an issue that the language of healing seems to make such an effective weapon in unscrupulous hands. I appreciate Doyle's grappling with the unpleasant parts of the matter!
