People speak sometimes about the "bestial" cruelty of man, but that is terribly unjust and offensive to beasts, no animal could ever be so cruel as a man, so artfully, so artistically cruel.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
Crime and Punishment Part 1 poster for an assignment :)))
(I’ve only just finished part 4 chapter 2 and I cannot be normal about this book😭😭)
daily affirmations:
i am worthy i am not a burden i did not kill my father and steal 3000 rubles and then walk through my town covered in blood before visiting my friend who wiped off the blood for me and then i told him i was going to kill myself then- i can do it
My science teacher told me "Rats are known to kill each other if necessary. They are not afraid of killing people, there are no friends, it's just the law of the strongest." And I thought of Fyodor.

another one made with an albanenechi base, it'd be more accurate to call these practice drawings
i decided not to shade this one because i liked the flat colors and this was more just for fun than anything
noo chuuya don't listen to him! he's going to verbally abuse and manipulate you!
more rambles below the cut
low quality closeups of the two losers
so pretty much this is for the same au as that sigchuu art i just posted :) its very dark and full of abuse actually.
fyodor's new hobby is kidnapping random kids from the slums and forcing them to be russian /hj
i might make a reference sheet for little chuuya in this au and explain all the clothes choices? or at least just a doodle idk
i also was listening to the adhd cut of EATEOT while drawing this, if that explains what mood i was in
dostoyevsky kinda ate with “your worst sin is that you have destroyed and betrayed yourself for nothing.”
I have a hc that Fyodor can speak French. This is not even a headcanon, but a mini-theory. It's based on the fact that the Fyodor is about 500+ years old, and he was definitely in the XVIII-XIX century, when every educated person in Russia knew French (and not only this language, it was just very popular)
Just let me drink coffee and read Dostoyevski.
It's so surreal to wake up after barely falling asleep, read about all the casualties caused by that russian attack at night, and literally next to that report is news of Trump once again saying that Russia is ready for peace and it's Ukraine that makes everything complicated and doesn't want to stop the war (for some reason stupid Ukrainians don't want to give up to Russia their land and people that live there, shocking).
I want to [redacted] this man with my own bare hands
"The children have just begun to live. We feel sorry for our country, they (russins) are killing us and no one is doing anything."
Locals have been bringing flowers and toys to the site in Kryvyi Rih since morning where children were killed in a russian attack on April 4. Nine children were killed in a russian Iskander missile strike. Six remain in hospitals, most of them in serious condition.

Crime and Punishment
-Fyodor Dostoevsky, Poor People
Love the animals, love the plants, love everything. If you love everything, you will perceive the divine mystery in things. Once you perceive it, you will begin to comprehend it better every day. And you will come at last to love the whole world with an all-embracing love.
Fyodor Doestoevsky
The pressing desire to be with someone when Fyodor Dostoevsky said, "I want to talk about everything with at least one person as I talk about things with myself."
"People. People. Endless noise. And I am so tired. And I would like to sleep under trees; red ones, blue ones, swirling passionate ones"
― Alfred Stieglitz, My Faraway One: Selected Letters of Georgia O'Keeffe and Alfred Stieglitz
My literature professor agreed to teach the class ''white nights'' per my request.
I am far more than pleased.
Stay yourself, stay curious

Hello, this is sort of a basic introduction of me, and what this blog will upload. Obviously I will branch out further with time, as I change as a person, yet currently I would like to grab the right blogger's attention -
I am pearl, I am a very curious academic person and always open to learning new things. I want to start uploading on Tumblr to discuss my Interests with like minded people - I don't have many friends in my day to day life, and even fewer that I share my academic Interests with, so I'd be thrilled for people to interact with my blog.
She / Her | Queer | Marxist | Academic
Interests;
Literature; More specifically, Classics and Gothic. I find stories that examine the human condition to be very interesting! If you have suggestions for novels, I encourage you to leave me some.
Art; I sketch almost daily. I love the romantic period and Oil paintings in general..
Tv; I like philosophical movies and ones about girlhood. Also dark academia.
Favorites;
Artist; Lana del Rey
Novel; The Secret History
Movie; Heathers (1989)
I intend to upload my daily observations, opinions of Novels and other media, Communist content, and thoughts about my Academic interests - Classical literature and the Torah. This'll be my corner and if you'd like, you're welcome to stay.
Stay yourself, stay curious
I enjoy mocking certain Dostoevsky readers due to how much of a loser they are. These readers can also be pretentious and arrogant about their self proclaimed intellectual identity but as I said: they’re losers. I like dostoevsky’s writing though. I’ve read Crime and Punishment and White Nights. I enjoyed Crime and Punishment more but I resonate very deeply with the narrator in White Nights and soon hope to have a copy of the work
