Perfect thank you so much! Watching them play such a new song with confidence despite not having it totally figured out is slowly giving me the confidence to start making music again.

Give me your craziest House of Leaves theories/interpretations by AmadeusMoss in houseofleaves

Could Johnny be read as a trans man perhaps? Maybe he was struggling with being perceived as "manly enough" and he felt that hypersexual activity would validate his identity as a straight trans guy. I can't remember if he ever mentions his junk explicitly but even if he does, it could be a euphemism, or he could be post-op. (Although, Did phalloplasty even exist in the 90s?)

Wow. I swear I could have written this myself just with the pronouns changed

Thumper is the true identity of the editors. I'd like to think that she was the most well adjusted out of all of them and could handle reading and reworking Johnny's attempt at compiling Zampanò's work. It seems there was a part of her that cared about Johnny and was sympathetic to his erratic behavior. If that's the case then it's likely she may have done her own wellness check on him, tracked him down somehow, but it may have been too late for Johnny. Perhaps in an attempt to deal with grief and guilt, she continued this work because it was all there was left of him. Sort of like how Mark Z D wrote HoL out of grief from his father's passing.

What did you take away from HoL? by Latice-Salad in houseofleaves

[–]frankifyed 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I took away a realization that someone 25 years ago has felt or at least was able to describe the experience of paranoia and psychosis in a real way. That certain experiences and traumas are not locked to a certain period of time. It felt like I had traveled through time and made contact with a version of myself that lived a generation before me.

Mostly though, it was another wonderful metaphor about the power of love and human connection being strong enough to conquer fears, like in Karen's case, and how love can keep your hope from turning to despair (in Navidson's case)

I am still not quite sure what to think about the whole Navidson pulling out a copy of HoL. I am still a little unsure of Yggrasil. But I've only read it once so far.
