Mandatory literature we have for the next week is literally a short smut story... what the fuck is this school?
Happy birthday to my favourite dead person ever. Leopold, you taught me how to fully accept and appreciate the subjectivity of the human experience, and for that you and your work will always be dear to me. As long as I'm alive you will always be loved and remembered. Česť tvojej pamiatke.
The Bittersweets girl band from the 1960s is so underappreciated (or I just love 60s music too much)
I wanted to add my favourite song Summertime but it's not on spotify :(
Venus in furs where everything is the same but there are fleas in Wanda's furs and she catches them so she's constantly itching her scalp
TW suicide
Back in april my uncle khs and it did not surprise me. Some months before that I spotted passively suicidal behavior in what I've been told about him because I recognised the pattern from my own experiences. I even said the thought "he doesn't care anymore" out loud to my mother but I never expected him to become active. Like I did not see it coming but it did not surprise me at all. But everyone else and his immediate circle was shocked for some reason. He was in his late 50s and had medical problems which became worse due to his his apathy towards them. I was not close to him and he seemed far away from even his immediate family with whom he lived with, which his increasing drinking problem did not help. This spiral of male loneliness seems so impenetrable, what could have I, a distant, queer 20 year old nephew (also suicidal) done to change the mind of a stubborn old man raised into toxically masculine society? I, in a sense, predicted my uncle's suicide and I do not know what to do with this information.
The sheer amount of femboys in Sacher-Masoch's work is astonishing
Is it seasonal depression or is the ever earlier sunset forcing me to reflect on how I haven't experienced anything fun or new or just "summery" this summer and I will only get a next chance in a whole year
