Going to pin a post with the #AmazingRace #TAR38 hashtags so I can mute them every Wednesday with two clicks and then unmuted after I watch the episode.
I need more disabled people doing commentary on the #AmazingRace #TAR38.

I had a whole thread about the curb cut effect and how the race/production failed to demonstrate it when they had a perfect opportunity to do so, vis a vis heat risk, but I didn’t end up posting it.

#TAR38 Izzy struggling with feeling like a winner after BB25. "I feel like I am my best self with her." THIS BETTER BE SETTING THEM UP FOR A GREAT LEG RATHER THAN DEPRESSING IRONY.

I know everyone low key laughs about Raven and thinking she’s a mastermind, etc. She was very bad at BB. But she’s basically the reason I knew gastroparesis existed when I started having symptoms of dysautonomia (same big bucket of conditions).

Very hard to not tie this to the Atlantic's shitty stance on trans kids to contribute to the overall narrative about how kids' boundaries and bodily autonomy should be ceded to adults who know better than they do.
Ahh yes, a totally real trend for which we totally have evidence

The little historian inside me wants everyone to know that “modern panopticon” is redundant because as I understand it, Bentham’s panopticon is one of the signposts of the beginning of modernity.

Weird to be listening to a concise history of reality TV and influences in the 90s and early aughts and realizing I was oblivious to so much of it.

I think I saw some of the first season of Survivor because my family would have it on when I came home from my evening shifts on Fridays?

Behind the Mirror is officially published! This process has been the culmination of 25 years of fandom and the fulfillment of a lifelong dream.

The responses & enthusiasm so far have been deeply meaningful to me.

The book's dedication was made out to all of you.

Thank you.

I requested the Behind the Mirror audiobook from my library and they bought 96 library copies…listening now!

(Also personally bought a copy of the ebook through Kobo, but don’t have the spoons for reading nonfiction with my eyes right now.)

The same dude that designed the comps for BB25 (this isn’t even a joke that’s how he introduced himself to me at the BB27 finale party…)

Multiple things can be true. Fans have been somewhat dismissive of the bigotry that Jag, and now Jas, have experienced in the world of reality TV. It often feels like folks only call out racism and xenophobia when I happens to players they like. And that’s not okay. 1/2 #tar38

if i’m understanding taylor’s post correctly, is she saying that jag may have approached her essentially saying that SHE hasn’t done enough to uplift diverse voices in the bb community? which then left her morally obligated to give the express pass? #tar38
