I find more coherence in Beckett novels than I do the terms “cishomopatriarchy,” “cishomocentrism,” and “cishomonornativity.”

God, I thought it was just me. Fucking Ulysses is an easier read than this gobbledygook.

I find more coherence in bloody TimeCube than I find in almost anything TRAs say.

Yeah Beckett looks at the absurd and pulls out the harsh reality; TRAs look at reality, say F-that and try to push their own absurdity in place of reality.

Exactly. All the TRA speak is to obfuscate their feelings instead of expose reality. (Artists using lies to tell the truth and politicians using lies to cover up the truth, etc.) After thinking on it, these are what I presume all the made up terms actually mean.

Cishomopatriarchy: gay men are bad

Cishomocentrism: LGB people exist our experiences don’t align with cosplaying straight people. Because we want our own spaces to talk about our own issues, we’re bad.

Cishomonormativty: LGB people who want to acknowledge our same-sex attraction and get on with our lives instead of cater to delusional straight people are bad
