what’s going on inside a man who leaves his family? (..) What was Dad doing that was more important to him than us? (..)

But I had only ever learned to be a man by showing strength.

"fucking foreign language" and "language cum"

motherless tongues.

i feel bad for those who feel confused that i dont have a mother tongue..
- un kādā valodā tad tu sapņo?
- tas atkarīgs, ar ko es guļu

ma langue est langue anxieuse

ma langue a tres peu de temps

ekosistēma kura mana valoda ir radusies simbiozes procesā

mana valoda izvairās no pūlēm

viss ir saistīts

ta var pavērsties arī pret mani

tā var būt valoda, kur upuris ir arī agresors

prast vairākas valodas nozīmē avoir plusieurs moi

mana valoda radās akumulācijas procesā

franču imperiālisms tērpies universālisma mētelī

kolonizācijas un progresa mikslis

katra valoda sākas nezināmā vietā

when my language says "o", tas vienmēr nenozīmē "eau", bet arī to, ka šo telefona zvanu es necelšu

valoda un topošās mātes. jo bērni runā ar topošajām mātēm

parent is suddenly parented by child

doors open for the dead to return.

language abandoned and motherless

Tatiana’s love letter to Eugene Onegin causes nothing but heartache—but what a great letter! Had such novels encouraged me to view women’s suffering over men as an irreducible, even desirable part of the human experience—as something to be impartially appreciated, rather than challenged?

It made me think: if the books I loved so objectively were actually vehicles of patriarchal ideology, why wouldn’t the ideology of expansionism be in there, too?

The logic of Raskolnikov’s crime, I realized, was the logic of imperialism.

“Putin’s offensive on February 24 owed much to Dostoevskyism,” Oksana Zabuzhko wrote in an essay last April, after the massacre in Bucha. She called the invasion “an explosion of pure, distilled evil and long-suppressed hatred and envy,”

Dostoyevsky didn’t, of course, endorse Raskolnikov’s views.

the solution isn’t to keep consuming Austen’s novels in a geopolitical vacuum. Instead, we need to find new, “contrapuntal” ways of reading.

Russian literature as a two-hundred-year festival of misplaced sympathy for criminals,

"Women are struggling so much with so many problems. It’s obvious that people do not only have an issue with the hijab, but the system of government. They have changed the definition of Islam. They are killing many people. They are denying every single right of women. They don’t allow us to choose. It’s not only about the hijab issue – it’s about our right to make choices.”

"Putin can call on one special, truly politically active cohort of women: the conservative, pro-religion anti-feminists. Putin’s iron ladies have a crucial function in propaganda, politics and the initiating of decisive laws."

"All are expected to be cooperative and family oriented: in December, several female MPs protested against long parliamentary sessions, saying they needed to be home in time to feed their husbands."

"Она разозлилась на британских феминисток, которые устроили митинг против того, чтобы Борис Джонсон посылал в Украину оружие, потому что считали, что это приведет к “эскалации” конфликта. “Возможно, они не отдают себе отчета в том, что если Россия нас победит, о правах женщин у нас можно будет забыть”. Она прекрасно понимает стремление женщин к миру, но считает, что сейчас это “абсолютно неуместно”. Когда я спросила ее, как феминистки Британии могут поддержать Украину, она не раздумывая ответила: “Дайте нам самолеты, много самолетов!”"

Kurš mākslinieks ir teicis: "Katru reizi, kad mainu sievietes, iepriekšējo būtu jāsadedzina. Tikai tā no viņām var tikt vaļā. Varbūt tā es varētu atgūt zaudēto jaunību?"
Tikai nekādā gadījumā nesakiet to skaļi. Jums pārmetīs ģēniju kancelēšanu. Tas nekas, ka nelaiķa varmācīgajam, mizogīniskajam ģēnijam pagājušajā gadā vien bijušas 86 izstādes.

Anarchiste, résistante, féministe, bisexuelle, elle a écrit un chef d’œuvre du XXe siècle : "L’Art de la joie".

déscolarisée par ses parents qui redoutent un embrigadement fasciste. Empailleuse, boxeuse, musicienne, elle apprend des métiers manuels, se forme seule, lit tout Hugo et Dostoïevski, joue la comédie dans les rues.
