Hey, so I’m super excited that Dracula Daily is a thing, but I feel like I should warn people that one of the main characters in the novel is a guy that runs a lunatic asylum, and his scenes might be kinda hard to read for anyone who’s been through psychiatric abuse.

I would appreciate it if people reblogged this post and didn’t tag it with spoilers or put trigger warnings on it, since it’s important that this warning is seen by the people who need to see it. Thanks!

Edit: A lot of people are saying this guy shows up in August. This is not true. His first entry is on May 25th, and he’s a pretty big part of the book from then on. His name is Dr. Seward.

god i hate knowing i have stuff to do it's like bearing a curse

Arts and crafts are perfect for adhd folk bc there's an immediate and visual progress.

Cut fabric, sew it together. You just made clothing.

Put some beads on some twine. You just made jewelry.

You can see your productivity.

Chores are the opposite. Yes, your kitchen is clean now. But you'll cook again that evening or the next day and you'll have to start over. Yes, you vacuumed. But two days later it's dusty again. Laundry done, until next week.

Chores never end.

But arts and crafts, nobody can undo the thing you made. You can hold it up and say "look. I made this. I did the productivity today" and nothing quite beats that serotonin rush.

one thing i need to start living by is “become the thing that you want” if i want friends who throw themed parties maybe i should start throwing those parties. if i want someone who writes me love letters maybe i should start writing letters for the people i love. if i want to hang out at museums and pretty cafes maybe i should invite my friends to these places. and maybe even then i won’t find the kind of people i want to be around. but then i would have become the exact person i want to be around. and maybe that’s good enough.

ok but WHERE WERE TVA WHEN STEVE STAYED WITH PEGGY IN THE END OF ENDGAME???????????

the feeling of learning is legitimately so cool. there’s a little whoa sound effect that plays in your brain whenever you read a sentence that expands reality for you a tiny bit

i'm currently reading dune (frank herbert), blindness (josé saramago) and little women (louisa may alcott) :D

i like to read two to three books simultaneously because it keeps me way more entertained. besides, each book have a different category in my daily routine lol. my edition of dune is too heavy so it's my read-in-bed-to-relax-and-disconnect-book. blindness is my take-everywhere-with-me-specially-in-public-transportation-so-people-think-i'm-smart-book and little women is my current reading-in-my-target-language-book.

dune is the one i'm most enjoying! i thought it would be too dense, and it is because of the complex world building, but i'm having a really good time! the chapters are short which makes the reading fluid for me.

blindness is incredible. josé saramago is truly clever. he choses the words to build he sentences so magnificently

little women is... interesting. i have a hard time with this type of literature, like jane austen, i don't know why. i love the characters and the movie, so it makes me motivated enough to keep going.

let me know if you have read any of these! <3

If you see this you’re legally obligated to reblog and tag with the book you’re currently reading

yea so what if you speak your target language with an heavy accent?? so what if you screw up grammar??? so what if you stutter and have to ask them to repeat themselves 20 times?? at least you’re speaking and guess what??? you’re doing better than the 40% of the world that only speaks one language so ig you’re pretty badass
