excellent 🧵 about "queerbaiting"

Kat McKatKat @mckatkat.bsky.social · 12d

I should be going to sleep but instead I'm doing this, I'm of the camp that is somewhat skeptical about the utility of the concept of queerbaiting in general, but I think if you are going to accept it as a useful concept you have to actually understand what it is to meaningfully use it!

People who think the idea of "give me ideas" is something genuinely creative people want have literally never experienced the absolute EUPHORIA of a brainstorming breakthrough, either solo or with a human collaborator. They don't understand what is happening when artists create, on a basic level.

David Simon, creator of ‘The Wire’, being interviewed by Ari Shapiro (NPR)

SHAPIRO: OK, so you've spent your career creating television without Al, and I could imagine today you thinking, boy, I wish I had had that tool to solve those thorny problems...
SIMON: What?
SHAPIRO: ...Or saying...
SIMON: You imagine that?
SHAPIRO: ...Boy, if that had existed, it would have screwed me over.
SIMON: I don't think Al can remotely challenge what writers do at a fundamentally creative level.
SHAPIRO: But if you're trying to transition from scene five to scene six, and you're stuck with that transition, you could imagine plugging that portion of the script into an Al and say, give me 10 ideas for how to transition this.
SIMON: I'd rather put a gun in my mouth.

Between this and Kash Patel publicly sharing "evidence" every other day, I'm fairly certain these fools can be baited into ruining even their strongest cases.

The prosecutors have got to be pulling their hair out.

Apparently Trump may have violated Luigi Mangione’s right to a fair trial or his 6th amendment right with his big mouth and sausage fingers

Luigi Mangione's lawyers claim Donald Trump prejudiced trial

They say the US president's comments were "part of a greater political narrative that has no place in any criminal case".

"I don't care that he's dead."
"He's not a hero."
"He's a scumbag."
"He shouldn't be celebrated."

No, no. I'm not saying that about Charlie Kirk. Charlie Kirk said that about George Floyd.

Just in case anyone's interested in what he thought was fair to say about someone who was killed on camera.

An antisemite shot two kids in Colorado, at least one of whom is Jewish.

The White House “fighting antisemitism” doesn’t care, because the shooter was a student radicalized online into far right beliefs, which the regime is cool with, rather than a student verbally criticizing Israeli govt policy.

‘Radicalized’ Evergreen High School shooter appeared to hold antisemitic, violent views in online accounts

Social media accounts that appear to be connected to the 16-year-old shooter are littered with references to mass shootings and antisemitic views, The Denver Post found.

A woman says "it's weird how 9/11 became a national holiday." Another woman, with horror on her face says "Oh No! That means..." We cut away to see Jack Skellington from Nightmare before christmas approach a door in a tree shaped like the twin towers. He emerges from an airplane bathroom in front of shocked passengers and says "what's this?" We see the plane about to crash in to the towers. Jack once again says "what's this?"
