Do you think murder is sexual for the ghostfaces?
Oh, good question.
I think it depends on which Ghostface you’re talking about. Ghostface as his own character? Absolutely 100%. The individual Ghostfaces? I’m going to do a small dive in. Don’t mind me.
Billy Loomis: Yes and no. To a certain degree, I’m kind of leaning toward yes. He definitely gets off on violence, but his motive was purely driven out of revenge and that’s pretty hard to ignore. He definitely liked knowing he fucked Sidney knowing he was going to try kill her (he did NOT enjoy fucking her though.)
Stu Macher: Yes. Immediately yes. Out of love for Billy, but he absolutely got off on violence. He was having way too much fun the entire time for him not to be rock fucking hard, come on.
Mickey Altieri: Are you kidding me??? Obviously YES. He’s probably the Ghostface that’s driven the most sexually. He considers sex and murder two sides of the same coin, is 1000% rock hard the entire time. Enjoys both forms of penetration way too much, how disgustingly poetic. Sick cunt. I love him.
Nancy Loomis: No.
Roman Bridger: No.
Charlie Walker: Eh. He was having way too much fun and was way too brutal (especially when killing Olivia) for anyone to say he wasn’t getting at least a little hard over it.
Jill Roberts: She was only horny for herself and her motive. She had Charlie did all the work. Soooo NO, it’s not sexual for Jolt- I mean Jill.
Amber Freeman: Immediately YES. Did you see the way she was killing??? Instantly wet. And I mean, so was she.
Richie Kirsch: Tough one. I’m gonna go with a firm maybe. He was too hard over the Stab movies for me to just say no.
Wayne Bailey: No. he was brutal, but no.
Ethan Landry: Although my perfect boy was running around having an absolute ball in act 3, I’m going to go with no. He was just trying to live up to Richie’s standards. But that’s not to say he wasn’t enjoying it at least a little bit, probably more than he expected.
Quinn Bailey: Sex positive queen, but I’m going to once again say no. She was revenge driven entirely, I don’t think she necessarily ENJOYED it in that way.
Honourable mention: Jason Carvey: Immediately fucking yes. His speech about Laura after he killed her??? No other explanation needed.
Sorry this was a simple question and I just went off and ran with it but here we are.

one of the biggest things I can advocate for (in academia, but also just in life) is to build credibility with yourself. It’s easy to fall into the habit of thinking of yourself as someone who does things last minute or who struggles to start tasks. people will tell you that you just need to build different habits, but I know for me at least the idea of ‘habit’ is sort of abstract and dehumanizing. Credibility is more like ‘I’ve done this before, so I know I can do it, and more importantly I trust myself to do it’. you set an assignment goal for the day and you meet it, and then you feel stronger setting one the next day. You establish a relationship with yourself that’s built on confidence and trust. That in turn starts to erode the barrier of insecurity and perfectionism and makes it easier to start and finish tasks. reframing the narrative as a process of building credibility makes it easier to celebrate each step and recognize how strong your relationship with yourself can become

to you, it's a shitty sentence. to some random bitch 500 miles away, it's a fire line that'll haunt them for the next 17 years.
you don't know how impactful your writing is because it's been in your brain for far too long now. you've stared at it for hours and repeated "this sucks" over and over again to the point that you killed your capacity to feel anything about your work.
but trust me, once you get your shit out there, someone's gonna go over that paragraph you hate and go "jesus fucking christ" and put the book down to have an existential crisis.

spn is such a funny show, it'll be like:
Naomi tells Cas he has to choose "us, or them" and 'them' is meant to imply Sam and Dean both, but then
she makes Cas kill fake copies of Dean only
Or Metatron will speechify about how Cas is "in love... with humanity"
and then give Cas another lil speech about how it was all "to save Dean Winchester. That was your goal, right? I mean, you draped yourself in the flag of Heaven, but ultimately it was about saving one human, right?"
Ishim shows up and tries to tell Cas how weak he is for befriending Sam and Dean
and then when he wants to "cure" Cas of his human weakness, that weakness is just Dean
AND THEN you'll have things like
Sam will say that Cas is family, that he'd die for him
but he also refers to Cas as an "it" just hanging around in a vessel strong enough to take on Lucifer (in season 11!! It's not like he said that in s4 or something, it was like 8 years after knowing the guy)
Or in "Regarding Dean," Dean will say to Sam "and our best friend's an angel!"
and then when he's by himself in the mirror, he'll say "and Cast--Cas is my best friend."

Another bewildering assertion I've seen floating around is that the United States of America deliberately destabilises West Asia and North Africa, murders millions of civilians, destroys towns and cities, arms militias &c. because of Islamophobia. I assure you that this is not true and that no one who is serious about understanding geopolitics or Islamophobia has this analysis. Islamophobia may have early modern or pre-modern instantiations, but in its current context it is very much a result of and a rhetorical and social justification for the geopolitical, economic, resource-driven exigencies of imperial capitalism. You're looking at a cart and insisting that it is pulling a horse around
