Academic friends: I am looking for texts (from any field or discipline) that address play/playfulness as either an analytical tool or a form of feminist praxis. I know this comes up in Haraway’s work but I’m wondering what else is out there. Thank you in advance for any guidance!
A few months ago I got to design the staff t-shirt for The Hobbit x MTG! I relished painting some of the pivotal characters and elements of the story. The stylization is inspired by Tolkien's own paintings, and I wanted it to look as though Bilbo had drawn these things in his book.

These takes return the blame somehow to the women that write and enjoy ludicrous scenarios that WE KNOW aren’t realistic instead of the actual people that enabled this to happen and then go unpunished. If you cannot see how this is misogyny then you are part of the problem.
My favorite part of the entirety of LOTR (besides Galadriel )because it seems strange and weird and all things spooky and somehow just *old* when I read it and every time I read it after that as well
The Shire-Reckoning@shire-reckoning.bsky.social · 2w agoFrodo wakes in a barrow. The three other hobbits lie on stone slabs, dressed in white rags and gold treasure. He hears a song. ‘Cold be hand and heart and bone, and cold be sleep under stone…’ An arm walking on its fingers approaches from behind. It moves towards Sam.

Frodo sees the horse’s rider approaching in the dark and almost puts on the Ring, but the man flees. Frodo listens. He hears Elves singing! ’Snow-white! Snow-white! O Lady clear! O Queen beyond the Western Seas! O Light to us that wander here Amid the world of woven trees!’

Do you ever have something so utterly random from a piece of media you encountered as a kid that is to this day lodged in your brain? Because for me that piece of media is Rimmer from Red Dwarf telling Lister that his family was in a Christian sect that misread the verse as “faith, hop and charity”
Surreptitiously bought a Dearh Cab For Cutie ticket for their Portland, ME show in April while at a required leadership event. No regrets. How I will take time off and *get* to Portland is a question for another day 😅
