Mads "Stern Schoolmarm" Viande @byttyrs@queer.party

River, my guy, that's... My My My's video focuses on Troye's eyes so much because it's a video about cruising, an eye-gaze mediated interaction between men whereby they communicate their desire to... you know what? this is above my pay grade

(marginal eye contact in last screencap)

My name's Madison, Madeleine, or Madeline.
I'm a trans woman w/broad taste in partners gender-wise, & I call that 'gay' for reasons.

I'm a poet, "author," artist, composer, vocalist, ~style icon~, & academic interested in things including social content of genre cliché & premodern notions of gender, sexuality, madness/folly/'oddity' or 'eccentricity' (think: AD(H)D, autism spectrum, OCD, aspects of schizophrenia).

I use the F- & T-slurs a lot. I am both. I'll try to CW them, but I may slip up.

there is a black cat with no collar on my porch

the mac'n'cheese turned out fantastic, though, I just made a huge mess

ME, in my rôle as STERN SCHOOLMARM: And what have we learned today, children?
Several CRESTFALLEN CHILDREN, who are also ME: [in unison] You can't cook with beef stock and expect it to behave like water.
IRATE INSTRUCTOR: Because...?
PENITENT PRESCHOOLERS: [in unison] Pectin is a coagulant.

I sent it to my boyfriend and with luck he will mix it into something that actually, like, sounds good

well I didn't do laundry or, like, any of the other things it woulda been smart to do but I did make some electronic music
