Here we go with the bullshit from the show-runners and the fandom.

No, stop it. What we’re not going to do is pretend that the show-runners and producers have any good will toward you now, do not start coming with the bullshit and excuses for these people just because they tossed you some nonsense pr “apology.” 

This was a premeditated act over year in the making, over a year in the making! Please fucking hear me! This is a team of very well off people who have the resources to have gone and spoken to experts and gotten advice and feedback on what they were planning to do to make sure they weren’t handling it in a completely insensitive way, instead they thought they were above it and this is the result.

They betrayed their cast and most egregious they betrayed a queer cast member and forced him (he’s on contract) to participate in baiting and betraying the community he belongs to. All of this, over a year in the making and with no remorse.

They didn’t have to include any of the poorly thought out content they did but creating shock value was more important to them than their own integrity, the integrity and relationships of the cast members with their higher ups and with one another, and the integrity of the story they were (barely) trying to tell.

Make no mistake, this was all done for shock value and to fuck over certain marginalized communities after courting the views of said marginalized communities with the illusion that they’d give them good representation and the delusion that people give enough of a shit about spoilers for this show that they had to apply a gag order on one of their core cast members and hide this from the rest of the cast. 

They wrote a story-line where they fucked over almost all of their main female characters, including diving right back into consent issue territory, queer-baited the lgbtqa community, and then made a clinically depressed character they’d (poorly) revealed as being queer decide to kill himself using entirely too many don’ts from any “how to depict suicide responsibly in media” handbook. They did all of this happily, proudly, and with intent. And now they’re lying about it by pretending they “hear you,” by pretending they give a shit about what their audience thinks about their choices as show-runners, and by pretending they give a shit about how it affected the communities they intentionally fucked over.  

Remember that even as they claim they were “away from social media” they were basking in the small amount of praise they got for their decisions by liking the positive commentary and ignoring the negative or blocking people who gave them negative feedback. That’s not giving a shit.

They’re trying to gaslight the communities they fucked over into believing that they give a shit about said communities when they’ve spent a year planning to betray them; please understand that!

The intellectual dishonesty and readiness to excuse this behavior is fucking baffling to me. For the life of me I cannot understand why people are so eager to accept the responses from these show-runners and producers that clearly contradict everything they’ve been setting in motion, intentionally, for a year!

They had a year to hear members of these communities but they didn’t even seek the advice! Their egos are so inflated that they knew you’d do just this and try to find ways to excuse their behavior when they give you these half-assed, obtuse apologies! This is psychopathic, abusive behavior!

Frankly, I’m surprised the network hasn’t stepped in at this point and asked them to step down but seeing as how one of the executive producers is coming with the bullshit caping, I’m completely unsurprised that these people will keep their jobs and continue to thrive after this.

And the worse part of all of this is that this was intentionally homophobic, sexist, and ableist behavior that they are now trying to excuse. And they’re not even just trying to excuse this behavior they’re trying to convince you that it was actually good for you and that you’re somehow fucking crazy or stupid for not seeing it their way and accepting it. That’s gas-lighting, that’s abuse. They want you to thank them for using their power against marginalized communities to hurt them. That’s what this is and every single thing they’ve said during this and in its aftermath speaks to just this. Go read those interviews with these show-runners again if you need a reminder of what they think of you and what they think of themselves.

I, for one, am convinced that these people are racist, sexist, homophobic, and ableist trash and they know this about one another and encourage one another because that’s the only reason I can think of for why this was allowed to go down the way it did. Even if I thought intent mattered when you put this ugly shit into the world, I believe this was intentional, this was not accidental, they didn’t do this not understanding the negative consequences for the communities it impacted. Why else do you all think that no one, no one can figure out why they did this from a narrative or social standpoint without delving into a nonsense, easily debunked reason for it or a to be deliberately cruel reason for it! Look at the overwhelmingly negative reviews of this season if you don’t believe that people can’t make sense of this! The only people who see this as some sort of good direction for this show are the people who belong to the hegemonic groups that don’t get it either because they don’t want to get it or because they agree with the mean-spirited intent. Period.

Try to think of one good reason why they, for example, even had to have episode 4.5 go the way it did, I’ll wait.

No, if you’re trying to find excuses to watch next season or to justify what they did let me tell you: don’t. There’s no good reason for either one of those things and you’ll just be doing yourselves and your communities a disservice. They need to experience negative consequences and you have to see yourselves and your communities as powerful enough to bring those consequences about even if you’re not sure it’ll do anything because they’re counting on your complacency to continue to behave this way while wielding the power they do. 

Please believe me when I tell you that I’m not looking to “hate” or start shit. I don’t identify as queer but I am a woman who has severe depression along with other disabilities and I understand the hideously negative impact these things have on the lives of people who experience them. I understand the desire for an escape that doesn’t go out of its way to undermine my experiences and my feelings for shock value and profit. 

I also go out of my way to understand the perspectives of other types of people and to try to empathize with their feelings when they’re fucked over in a world already set up to work against them. I do not take this lightly; seeing people suffer is not fun for me the way it is for these show-runners. 

So take all of this how you will and make your own decisions about how you’ll proceed but do so by applying critical analysis to this situation because these things are perpetuated when people don’t respond in thoughtful, impactful ways.

Happy Friday the 13th!

30+ / F. Looking for 18+ writing partners.

I'm looking for some horror-themed/dark-themed roleplays. Fandom (movies, TV shows, and books) or fandomless. Canon x Canon, Canon x OC, and OC x OC pairings are all fine with me. For fandom stuff, I have a strong preference for MxM but can do MxF and FxF. For fandomless, I'm just looking for MxM.

Discord is my preferred place to write.

I'm a big fan of NSFW stuff and smut but that isn't a requirement for this. I also have no triggers so we can do anything you're comfortable with.

Fandom: I'm just going to list the characters I'm most interested in writing right now (in alphabetical order, as opposed to by fandom because for a lot of fandoms I only have one or two characters I can write as). As far as ships go, I'm pretty open when it comes to them so you can feel free to suggest any to me.

Fandomless: As I mentioned above, I'm only looking for MxM pairings here. If we do this on Discord, I would like to have a server where we can have a development channel to flesh out our characters more, if we want to. I do like to have face claims for these so I can very easily picture the characters in my mind. So, for this, I'm going to list some general pairings I'm interested in (it's not an exhaustive list, though, so feel free to bring up others) and then the face claims I'm most interested in using (you can feel free to use whoever you want to).

Pairings: Serial Killer Couple, Serial Killer x Detective, Serial Killer x Victim, Serial Killer x "Fan," Serial Killer x Clueless Boyfriend, Paranormal Investigators, Zombie Apocalypse Survivors, Vampire x Human, Demon x Human, Cult Leader x Member, Kidnapping/Stockholm Syndrome, Stalker x Victim, Exorcist x Demon

Face Claims: Aaron Tveit, Alfonso Herrera, Andy Biersack, Cheyenne Jackson, Corey Taylor, Dacre Montgomery, David Tennant, George Blagden, Hugh Dancy, Jack Falahee, Jeffrey Dean Morgan, Joe Keery, Jon Bernthal, Lee Pace, Luke Evans, Max Minghella, Michiel Huisman, Paul Rudd, Spencer Charnas, Steven Ogg, Tom Payne, Wes Bentley

If interested, like this post and I'll message you or add me on Discord (Lindsay#7046).

Sibling Rivalries by Marcus Scott becomes semi-finalist for 2021 Blue Ink Playwriting Award

2021 Blue Ink Playwriting Award Winner Announced

by Blues | Mar 10, 2021 | Blue Ink Playwriting Award

Congratulations to Yussef EI Guindi the winner of the 2021 Blue Ink Playwriting Award. El Guindi’s play, Refugee Rhapsody, was selected from a pool 820 submissions. As part of the award, El Guindi receives a $2,000 cash prize and virtual reading with American Blues Theater.

“I’m thrilled to have won this award,” said El Guindi. “I’m grateful for the support of American Blues Theater and look forward to working with them on the upcoming reading.”

“We’re so excited to announce Yussef El Guindi’s script Refugee Rhapsody as the 2021 winner,” notes Artistic Director Gwendolyn Whiteside. “Yussef is an important voice in theater. We are honored to share this powerful and unforgettable story.”

About REFUGEE RHAPSODY

Sakinah, an Arab American woman, undergoes a mental health evaluation to determine what led to the violent crime she committed against Emily, a rich heiress. The play explores race, class, privilege, and how those factors collide and play out in today’s culture.

About Yussef El Guindi

Born in Egypt, raised in London and now based in Seattle, Yussef El Guindi’s work frequently examines the collision of ethnicities, cultures, and politics that face Arab-Americans and Muslim Americans. El Guindi holds an MFA in playwriting from Carnegie-Mellon University, and has worked as a playwright at Silk Road Rising; literary manager for Golden Thread Productions; and playwright-in-residence at Duke University.

He is the recipient of many honors, including the Steinberg/ATCA New Play Award and the 2010 Middle East America Distinguished Playwright Award. El Guindi’s most recent productions include “People of the Book” at ACT in Seattle; “Language Rooms” (Edgerton Foundation New American Play Award) at Pony World Theatre in Seattle, and Broken Nose Theatre in Chicago; “Hostages” at Radial Theater Project in Seattle; “The Talented Ones” at Artists Repertory Theatre in Portland ( Santa Barbara Independent Indy Awards); “Threesome” at Portland Center Stage, ACT, and at 59E59 (winner of a Portland Drammy for Best Original Script); “Pilgrims Musa and Sheri in the New World” (winner of the Steinberg/ American Theater Critics Association’s New Play Award in 2012; and the 2011 Gregory Award) also at ACT, Center Repertory Company (Walnut Creek, CA), and at Mosaic Theater Company (DC). Other productions: “Our Enemies: Lively Scenes of Love and Combat” was produced by Silk Road Rising and won the M. Elizabeth Osborn award. His play “Back of the Throat” (winner of L.A. Weekly’s Excellence in Playwriting Award for 2006), “Pilgrims Musa and Sheri in the New World”, “Jihad Jones and the Kalashnikov Babes”, “Such a Beautiful Voice is Sayeda and Karima’s City” have been published by Dramatists Play Service. “Ten Acrobats in an Amazing Leap of Faith”, “Collaborator”, “Threesome”, “The Talented Ones” and “Hostages” have been published by Broadway Play Publishing Inc. In January, 2019, Bloomsbury/ Methuen Drama published “Selected Works by Yussef El Guindi”. Currently a Core Company playwright member at ACT in Seattle, and a Resident Artist at Golden Thread Production.
