Everyone can make a book and no one can make a living.

Ben Katchor, on indie comics/self publishing. Fuck a capitalism and it’s cool lots of folks can make things, but yeah it’d be dope to do things I love and be able to afford food and whatever.

Let’s get one thing out of the way: Mexican immigration is an oxymoron. Mexicans are indigenous. So, in a strange way, I’m pleased that the racist folks of Arizona have officially declared, in banning me alongside Urrea, Baca, and Castillo, that their anti-immigration laws are also anti-Indian. I’m also strangely pleased that the folks of Arizona have officially announced their fear of an educated underclass. You give those brown kids some books about brown folks and what happens? Those brown kids change the world. In the effort to vanish our books, Arizona has actually given them enormous power. Arizona has made our books sacred documents now.

Sherman Alexie is a poet, short story writer, novelist, and filmmaker. His book “The Lone Ranger and Tonto’s Fist Fight in Heaven,” was on the banned curriculum of the Mexican American Studies Program.

Back to the word transgenre, and the genre of trans, writing. It isn’t quite yet one. But like most things that are only partly there we can imagine its future or past shape.

Trish Salah, from “In Lieu of a Transgender Poetics,” Open Letter (Beyond Statis: Poetics and Feminism Today issue). Note to self to think about this with Allan Berube’s “search for a usable past” and Munoz’ “then and there.” (via oxxenfree)

Me: It smells like cat diarrhea in here.

Me: Yeah, lunchables that came out of a cat's butt.

I think that straight edge and queer culture have a lot to offer one another. From sXe I’d love for queer culture to absorb a sense of commitment to health, self-respect, and intentionality about lifestyle choices, as well as a sense of how individual choices can be meaningful within the context of a broader community. Queer culture can offer sXe a refusal of the machismo and gender rigidity that plagues the scene; a rejection of the false moralism of pseudo militants; and above all, a fucking sense of humor.
