@aescling for a potentially quite loose definition of “meaning”, “embedded in”, and “text”
@aescling “attempting to uncover the meanings embedded in a text” is i think the conventional definition
@witchfynder_finder nintendo is just trying to retcon the fact that samus owns clothes other than the zero suit
@aescling i would say that the purpose of (critical) theory is to build a (critical) framework for analysing things (that one can do criticism to)
@witchfynder_finder the one thing “tho” has against it is that, while quite common, there is also “although”, which is rarely shortened, and the two would probably have to happen at the same time
@witchfynder_finder i think “tho” will happen first tho
@aescling typically with little-to-no understanding of what the purpose of it actually is
@aescling unnecessarily hostile and antagonistic about any invocation of it
@witchfynder_finder i mean anti-Semitic conspiracy theories were formed in direct response to communist/socialist thought so i’m pretty sure this was by design on the part of the fascists
will i get praised or cancelled for my extensive knowledge of queer theoretical approaches to grief and mourning, episode 117/????
how dare you make anime star wars and not give them the opportunity for copious scenic long takes with nature sounds
@witchfynder_finder yes, this is canon
hey so i see you wrote about queer grief? well, here's what judith butler says on the subject:
