I like the kind that end up in prison or threatened with prosecution because they've actually

0:08.0

used the art of fevery or other kinds of subversion to undermine and destabilize centers of power.

0:18.4

And yes, being a messy gay guy probably has some issues to do.

0:23.8

I have read you all Ross Grindr dissertation.

0:28.4

It is, isn't it? Actually genuinely a thing that you can be just like some random homo

0:49.1

and use the drug for the reason that everybody else uses Grindr which is to just like find the nearest

0:57.6

person, you know, in your proximity that wants to fuck you at that very moment and decide that

2:04.2

rape the female dogs and the ways in which they do it and submit it as some feminist academic journal

2:10.6

and it was published and heralded even though it was too mean nothing. And that's what every one

2:16.7

of these PhDs practically sounds like.
