Abstract
This article seeks to engage Rosi Braidotti's work on memory and Elspeth Probyn's on shame to analyse the novel Stone Butch Blues by Leslie Feinberg. Probyn asserts that shame is a site of desire for connection and not solely humiliation. That queer and transgender expressions have been shamed then plays a role in how such communities are established. Braidotti analyses constructions of ‘history’ that privilege dominant subject positions (e.g. white, normatively gendered men). As a result mainstream history, or ‘memory’, is denied to those outside such privilege. Feinberg's novel serves as an alternate history for those with shamed genders/sexualities.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
