是說，看Mindhunter會很好奇，像Vivian Wu那樣常常針對女性主義在評論的人大概平常都沒看這類型的作品吧？也許他光看到這些類型裡女性的待遇就受不了了。小丑那部要說公式的確很公式，當初一看，我馬上會聯想到好幾個和亞瑟很像的角色，要是看Mindhunter選來演的連續殺人犯，有雷同人生經歷的角色更多。與其討論女性在小丑裡為什麼會扮演亞瑟人生中那樣的角色，討論從什麼時候開始女性在流行文化裡成為那樣的角色，和這現象的可能原因對我來說還比較有趣......。不然單純批評電影對待女性的態度只是附和20幾年前 Men, Women, and Chain Saws: Gender in the Modern Horror Film提過的內容而已。
The website explores the topic of theatre censorship in Britain 1737-1843. It hosts 40 carefully selected play manuscripts submitted to the Examiner of Plays who had the primary responsibility of safeguarding the morals of theatre audiences after the passage of the Stage Licensing Act of 1737.
"If we are to understand the phenomenon of police brutality, we must get beyond particular cases. We can better understand the actions of individual police officers if we understand the institution of which they are a part.
That institution, in turn, can best be examined if we have an understanding of its origins, it social function, and its relation to larger systems like capitalism and White supremacy.
Let's begin with the basics: violence is an inherent part of policing. The police represent the most direct means by which the state imposes its will on the citizenry.
They are armed, trained, and authorized to use force. Like the possibility of arrest, the threat of violence is implicit in every police encounter. Violence, as well as the law, is what they represent." --Our Enemies in Blue: Police and Power in America 非常適合和Watchmen一起看。
"To what degree is violence the 'property' of the state to begin with? At what point does the police co-operation of violence challenge the state's monopoly on it? When do the police, in themselves, become a genuine rival of the state? Are they a rival to be used (as in a system of indirect rule) or a rival to be suppressed?
Is there a genuine danger of the police becoming the dominant force in society, displacing the civilian authorities? Is this a problem for the ruling class? Might such a development, under certain conditions, be to their favor? "
"[P]olice activities, legal or illegal, violent or nonviolent, tend to keep the people who currently stand at the bottom of the social hierarchy in their 'place', where they 'belong'--at the bottom."
"The real limits to police power are established not by statuses and regulations─since no rule is self-enforcing─but by their leadership and, indirectly, by the balance of power in society."
"The earliest specialized police were watchmen... However, although their function was certainly specialized, it is not always clear that it was policing. Very often they acted only as sentinels, responsible for summoning others to apprehend criminals, repel attack, or put out fires." --Policing Perspectives: An Anthology, David H. Bayley
The 1778 law instructed the Georgia patrols to "take up all white persons who cannot give a satisfactory account of themselves and carry them before a Justice of the Peace to be dealt with as is directed by the Vagrant Act."

"Sexuality, commonly thought to be a natural as well as a private matter, is in fact completely constructed in culture according to the political aims of the society's dominant class." -- Technologies of Gender: Essays on Theory, Film, and Fiction, by Teresa de Lauretis
Our Enemies in Blue: Police and Power in America Let's begin with the basics: violence is an inherent part of policing. The police represent the most direct means by which the state imposes its will on the citizenry. [...] Violence, as well as the law, is what they represent. 低調。
"The police cannot both constitute a powerful crusading part of the 'Law and Order' lobby and maintain for long the semblance of social and political impartiality.
They cannot both claim to 'police by consent' and be so active and publicly involved in constructing public opinion, in shaping consent and producing it, in its most traditionalist and disciplinary form." --Toward a Law-and-Order Society, Stuart Hall
“He gazed up at the enormous face. Forty years it had taken him to learn what kind of smile was hidden beneath the dark mustache. O cruel, needless misunderstanding! O stubborn, self-willed exile from the loving breast!
Two gin-scented tears trickled down the sides of his nose. But it was all right, everything was all right, the struggle was finished. He had won the victory over himself.
"When we speak of 'professional criminals,'" Stephen told the colonial legislature in 1871, we should "realize what the term really does mean. It means a tribe whose ancestors were criminals from time immemorial,
and who are themselves destined by the usages of caste to commit crime, and whose descendants will be offenders against the law, until the whole tribe is exterminated or accounted for."
--"Colonizing and Transforming the Criminal Tribesman: The Salvation Army in British India", Deviant Bodies: Critical Perspectives on Difference in Science and Popular Culture, pp.82-83
"What a valuable file the police could control, if the public would only realize the latitude of finger print possibilities and benefits to be derived therefrom not only by themselves, but their families and relatives,
if the police were equipped (by reason of having their prints) to identify all persons coming within their jurisdiction, irrespective of circumstances; whether it be a criminal, a person who was murdered or killed accidentally, an unconscious person, or one suffering from aphasia." --1916, Frederick Kuhne 請問這和POI差多少？
"In 1923, E. O. Brown, a former Secret Service agent, reportedly demonstrated his method of forging fingerprint evidence by planting the fingerprint of the venerable Berkeley police chief August Vollmer at the scene of a burglary. Vollmer was not amused." Vollmer was not amused. XDDDDD
"It told of a small village that was terrorized by an evil dragon. Each year the dragon required the sacrifice of one young virgin from the village. And each year a brave young hero of the village would scale the nearby mountain to fight the dragon. None of the heroes ever returned.
When the next man set off on his doomed mission he was secretly followed to see what would become of him. The dragon’s lair was lined with gold and gems, and when the man arrived he was able to slay the dragon with his sword.
As he sat over the corpse, admiring the sparkling gems, he gradually began to grow scales, a tail and horns, until he himself had become the dragon the villagers feared."
The state, claiming a monopoly on the legitimate use of force, needs to distinguish its own violence from other, allegedlly less legitimate, uses of force. In non-totalitarian societies, authority exists within carefully prescribed, if vague (one might suggest, intentionally vague), boundaries.
Action within these limits is "legitimate," similar action outside of such limits is "abuse." But in the case of police violence, legitimate and excessive force exist as part of the same continuum, rather than as distinct species of action. (Even the term "excessive force" implies this.)
"[B]oth the traditional watch and the police system that came to replace it were informed by the experience of colonial rule. They were each created by foreign conquerors to control rebellious populations. [Robert] Peel had seen the difficulties of military occupation and understood the need to establish some sort of legitimacy." 又是沿用殖民地經驗......
可能有各種劇透。
有機會小U如果想看國內新聞頻道可以試試寰宇新聞台，我的感覺是這頻道有點像是在走大紀元路線，但又沒那麼明顯張狂，偏重經濟方向報導，再將觀點埋在裡頭，還滿有趣的，像是各個國家加強管理群眾的AI科技，目前看到的只有這一個電視台長期在追蹤。被它點名的除了美國、中國、英國、印度、香港，接下來應該還會有其它國家。
覺得這電視台怪有趣的在於它的國際觀點四分五裂，例如香港新聞報導是反中，美國新聞是反美，中國新聞是親中，歐洲新聞是親左翼偶而拿右翼來打左翼，日本新聞是持平，台灣新聞傾向在地花絮避政治。

我問過韓國同學，山水石的意義在韓國和在中國差不多，和風水有關，是有錢人會擺在家裡的裝飾品。山水石來自山和水的沖刷，本來是自然的一部份，是因為石頭的外型像山水而被人看上，才從那個環境裡被切割出來，加以琢磨，擺在家中，賦予帶來富貴的意義。山水石含帶的財富意義全然來自富貴人家。山水石即便在富貴人家的家裡，而且被看成吉祥之物，它只會是家中的擺飾，不屬於那個家的一部份。山水石如果在富貴人家，是因為他們被富貴人家挑上，從水中躋身上流：它如果被放回自然，就只是一顆石頭。
山水石的文化意義對比寄生上流裡因為模仿而獲得工作機會的金家。

我： 研究連續殺人犯拍的照片和時尚攝影的照片然後比對兩者時間關係和取鏡細節。
對方：
它拉下來的不只是義警，更是警察。而且當它把義警和警察放在一起談，然後說無法區分兩者的時候，其實是把超級英雄的架構全扯下來了。就像新版小丑毀掉了蝙蝠俠的英雄成分，Watchmen把義警、警察和超級英雄全部放在同一個類別看，然後對觀眾說：你以為他們是不一樣的嗎？我分不出來，你可以嗎？

吸血鬼形象和十九世紀TB患者的關係。
我：我會提問是因為，這一串形容實在太像十九世紀科學認定白人男性比其他種族和性別都優越的原因了。我很好奇Butler為什麼會用這個字，我在想他是不是在用外星人和人類的關係隱喻種族問題。
學者：呃，Butler其實沒有用這個字。
我：呃。

默默覺得歐威爾在英屬殖民地的人生經歷可能是他寫得出這些作品的原因。雖然之前很少聽人提過這點。
不過純西部風真不是我的菜。Godless就已經吃不太下去，Deadwood更嚴重。
只是說真的這個說服理由好怪喔。
因為太怪，我還卡了一下子才搞清楚以前辦識（指紋）跟現在辦識（人臉）的順序不是同一件事。
然後現在裡面有橙色黃色綠色和黑色的東西和汁液。
所以這發明先是為了辨識殖民地上看起來量起來都一樣的印度人，被拿去辨識到美國但看起來量起來都一樣的中國人(加州)，再拿來辨識不好測所以沒有準確數據的女人(紐約)。不知道要說什麼。
城市印象的聯結應該是看對方腔調和是不是時常出現地域性話題？
我印象幾乎很少聽到你特別提起新竹，反而會把你聯結在校園、學術（非文學類小圈圈）這種單位團體上了。
用個舉例好了，對台北印象很商業金融，但其實也是因為工作地點剛好在這一區，像這樣的情況下，我就不會覺得小U是台北人了。
我不是台北/新北人(所以才好奇為什麼有人會猜我是)。但我也不是新竹人，只是在新竹待了挺久
