askygoneonfireYou know how you sit there some nights, and your mind wanders, and then you sort of...walk back in on yourself...you suddenly start taking notice of the meandering thoughts?
You ever walk back in on your thoughts and find they are vaguely bigoted? Like you're going "I wonder what happened to me to make my sexuality go wrong?" And you mentally walk back in and go "WOAH. WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT? HAVE YOU TURNED INTO THE DAILY MAIL?"
And the little, incessant voice goes "what? oh, yes, sorry, was just....you know! *nervous giggle* I was just recounting that old bigoted line that society likes to play...I was, er...working on an academic rebuttal!.....yeah."
Makes me want to go an eat another queer theory textbook. Sometimes I think that's the only reason I ever got into queer academia stuff...
