My name is Sam. I’m 21.  I’m vegan, queer, and feminist, and I drink a lot of tea.  Lately I watch too much TV.

While those who would fit within the constructions of “L”, “G”, “B”, or “T” could fall within the discursive limits of queer, queer is not a stable area to inhabit. Queer is not merely another identity that can be tacked onto a list of neat social categories, nor the quantitative sum of our identities. Rather, it is the qualitative position of opposition to presentations of stability—an identity that problematizes the manageable limits of identity. Queer is a territory of tension, defined against the dominant narrative of white-hetero-monogamous-patriarchy, but also by an affinity with all who are marginalized, otherized, and oppressed. Queer is the abnormal, the strange, the dangerous. Queer involves our sexuality and our gender, but so much more. It is our desire and fantasies and more still. Queer is the cohesion of everything in conflict with the heterosexual capitalist world. Queer is a total rejection of the regime of the Normal.”&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; - &lt;em&gt;toward the queerest insurrection  (via &lt;a href="http://sunwheel.tumblr.com/"&gt;sunwheel&lt;/a&gt;)(via &lt;a href="http://she-fell-away.tumblr.com/"&gt;she-fell-away&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;/em&gt;</description><link>http://soyousaid.tumblr.com/post/51092426649</link><guid>http://soyousaid.tumblr.com/post/51092426649</guid><pubDate>Wed, 22 May 2013 16:40:42 -0400</pubDate><category>queer</category><category>quote</category><category>text</category><category>words</category><category>lgbt</category></item><item><title>sophisticated-simplicities:

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Nobody tells this to people who are beginners, I wish someone told me. All of us who do creative work, we get into it because we have good taste. But there is this gap. for the first couple years you make stuff, it’s just not that good. It’s trying to be good, it has potential, but it’s not. but your taste, the thing that got you into the game, is still killer. And your taste is why your work disappoints you. A lot of people never get past this phase, they quit. Most people I know who do interesting, creative work went through years of this. &lt;strong&gt;We know our work doesn’t have this special thing that we want it to have.&lt;/strong&gt; We all go through this. And if you are just starting out or you are still in this phase, you gotta know its normal and the most important thing you can do is do a lot of work. Put yourself on a deadline so that every week you will finish one story. It is only by going through a volume of work that you will close that gap, and your work will be as good as your ambitions. And I took longer to figure out how to do this than anyone I’ve ever met. It’s gonna take awhile. It’s normal to take awhile. You’ve just gotta fight your way through. - Ira Glass&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
