The only thing keeping me from entirely losing my sanity is the soundtrack from Nymphomaniac atp
Fever is a hilarious immune response. Our bodies tell the disease “hey, wanna see which one of us dies of overheating first? No? Too bad.” and honestly they’re not even the winners a decent chunk of the time but it works often enough that we never evolved it away or anything. Fantastic work.
Oh my god Fico. How is it even possible to be this cringe? Like sure meeting Putin was cringe but it mainly made me angry, but the whole Elon thing... just full body cringe. Like I don't want to be associated with Fico's actions just because he rules slovakia noooo
But what I hate most about the current political situation is the worsening relationship with Czechia. Like I can't blame the czechs for thinking slovaks are awful and not wanting to be as warm right now but oh god even just the idea of the relationship getting the slightest bit worse terrifies me to no end. Like not all of us are bad!
None of these words are in 120 Days of Sodom
„Gott hat ihn gestraft und hat ihn in eines Weibes Hände gegeben“, wiederholte ich für mich. Nun, was soll ich etwa anstellen, damit er mich straft?
I'm in a library and I kid you not they have Leopold von Sacher-Masoch by Gilles Deleuze under S, not D. Should I tell them...?
I've been bitten by the reanimator bug,,,,
Moms will just say the most hurtful shit off the cuff randomly like you'd need to get me to sit down for a whole day to formulate something as mean and they'll just do that shit off the dome
A lot of patients of the psychiatrist referenced Sacher-Masoch when telling him about their kinks. They would be like "I like women who hit me and wear fur coats, just like the one in Sacher-Masoch's Venus in furs". During his time Masoch was also famous so his work must have been a lot of people's "awakening" too. He did not write under pseudonyms when he probably should have for his own sake so the poor guy stood no chance.
The term "sadism" as it comes from the Marquis de Sade was already being used in France so Krafft-Ebing only borrowed it, he only really made up "masochism". He also corresponded with a different psychiatrist who independently of him started using "passivism" to describe masochistic urges and Krafft-Ebing was like interesting however I will keep using masochism and now here we are.
learned today (after googling it upon seeing the "Sadomasochism Brothers" post) that masochism was named by a psychiatrist who had read Leopold von Sacher-Masoch's erotic writing and was like "I feel safe in concluding that this man had Fucked-Up Freak Sex Disorder, which now until forever will bear his name", while von Sacher-Masoch was still alive. there are accounts of von Sacher-Masoch being like "bro what the fuck" about this
