I was willing to humor it until the author suggests that the West is not patriarchal, which is :dogbutton: as gently caress.

A Huge Idiot posted:


Unlike the modern liberal subject, the Others (like Joe) are inseparable from the mask. They do not identify themselves as abstract individuals, minds floating above and choosing culture. Rather, they are completely dominated by it and, lacking individuality, are unfree. They are, essentially, things, which the archetypal liberal individual — embodied in Max and Furiosa — must save us from.

Indeed, this is the battle cry of Joe’s escaped wives: “we are not things.” But the wives are not protesting the reduction of human beings to the status of passive objects forced to devote themselves and their labor to a system that produces inequality and alienation, or as the film depicts, societal collapse. Instead, they are declaring their freedom from tradition and culture — indicating their separation from and superiority to the forces of social “backwardness.”

Today was weedy pedo guy's birthday, so we all went out to the Cheesecake Factory tonight
I was tempted along by the chance to meet Muttering Obama Climate Change Guy's new girlfriend, and big black anime friend went along because it would count towards his ILS goals of getting out and socializing more

The problem is that MOCCG's girlfriend has to bring along her kids, which is suddenly sprung on us right as we've arrived
This boots us up to 7 seats, which is an hour & a half long wait instead of a 15 minute one
So we hang out at the Barnes & Noble for a while
While I'm there I sit down in the comics aisle and read a Hellboy volume, and eventually an older Asian gentleman with two missing teeth wants to check past me. I apologize and shift to the side, but he apologizes for making me move and then decides that since I'm the kind of dweeb who would sit on the floor in front of the comic book section then I must know about the logistics of copyright law and how it is applied to fancomics in America, and asks me about it. We then proceed to talk for nearly a half an hour about the state of the fan writer/artist/doujin community in both America & Japan, and how the respective country's laws impact the way that they function

After getting a call that our table is ready and still no word back from MOCCG's girlfriend we finally go into the Cheesecake Factory and weedy guy stands around nervously and doesn't ask about our table until I forcibly flag down a waiter and stand him in front of weedy guy
We sit down and wait another half an hour for MOCCG's girlfriend to contact us, and I order an appetizer during this time
We finally give up on her despite MOCCG's protests and order our food, only for me to discover something while eating my appetizer: my cracked filling has made my teeth incredibly thermally sensitive, and my tramadol has worn off by now
So I have to call a cab to pick me up from the Cheesecake Factory and rush me home so I could take my pill

And that's where we catch up to now

Also weedy pedo guy brought me my sandwich I ordered and paid for it too, which was nice of him
