are pre travel blues a thing? where after you've bought the tickets, instead of excited anticipation, you feel melancholic and vaguely guilty about nothing in particular
#I do feel a bit guilty about the price I paid but it was all on short notice#and it's better now than later since I have to start a lot of things#personal#of course they're a thing btw. for every feeling and though there's at least one person -probably more - that feels or thinks it#and I don't particularly need the consolation of knowing someone else shares it (misery brings very little company imho)#but I wonder if it's common enough that someone amongst the few that follow me feels that way too#and it's always like this. not now and then#the pro is that I don't get post travel blues I suppose

i do think a lot of implausible medieval plot devices make more sense when considering the fact that these people simply did not have glasses

I never liked Melanie as a person but was very intrigued by her as a character, since she's as deep and well written as any other on the show, (until fandom made me hate her). I'd forgotten though that the dislike was immediate + from her first appearance we get to know one of her most fundamental (and insufferable) traits, that is that she does exactly what Jon does, worse-ish* even, but she thinks she's better than him because, well, because it's her and she just is. Which will come back full force later on to such wonderful effects
#yeah fell for the relisten hype#I need interesting and well written stories#*worse-ish because the institute doesn't sell stories to the public (it's actually unclear where they get their money from#We know of course but for others they must think that they're financed by paranormal aficionados#despite the fact that most statements end nowhere and that Jon and the other researchers are highly skeptical)#plus she accuses the institute of taking every story at face value when they actually look into them + she and her team don't believe#anything but mess with the data and readings. We can assume that some of the stuff they investigate is true#but the only statement with proper ghosts is Melanie's own when she gets infected with the slaughter. So#point two she criticises absolutely everything about the archive + by extension Jon despite having decided#of her own free will to ask for their help. because she just has to feel superior + remind others of it#I'm glad that Jon is still full force in his bitchy confident fase (yeah it's a fa莽ade whatever) and gives as good as he gets#btw I truly liked Melanie's complexities. she made me sick to my stomach with anger but I Liked it#that's how stories work. Interesting characters. not never do bad girl boss whatever#worst thing is that I really ignored the fandom for the most part. but this reading of Melanie and Georgie was so prevalent#that I could not escape it no matter how hard I tried#TMA

we need to have a way to post a pdf directly to tumblr. tumblr should have another post type called "pdf" so we can embed them easily. tumblr will never be the new pdf without this function.

No judgment if you're into the beat-to-shit look, but if you give your OCs random cuts and bruises I will be trying to Sherlock Holmes exactly what they were doing when they got them.

having a very public breakdown on tumblr is actually quite noble and should be respected

anyone ever think about how henry iv is straight-up lying to hal here. like he JUST lies. we know from richard ii (play; see fig. 3) that it was bolingbroke who hung out with the common people, bolingbroke who went out of his way to win the love of the broader population; in fact richard's speech about it mirrors the exact language hal uses to talk about ingratiating himself with random dudes in bars! (see fig. 4.) and it's not like shakespeare FORGOT this, because OTHER PEOPLE in the h4 plays also corroborate this information and note that nobody gave a fuck about richard because he only hung out with rich twinks (see fig. 2, i am paraphrasing). and yet bolingbroke-become-king-henry tells the story to hal as if richard was TOO in-touch with the people, not too isolated, and as if bolingbroke himself was the distant one, and he does this specifically so he can compare hal to richard and, unfavorably, to himself. and perhaps he can convince hal of this--it's not like hal was at his father's side for the usurpation. but you know who WAS THERE?? US! US, WE, THE AUDIENCE, WE WERE THERE! and he can lie to his son and put on airs but he can't conceal from everyone how much he's actively constructing and editing and revising his own kingship, compulsively, terrifiedly, grasping for a stable story that does the rhetorical work he wants it to. i see you, shitty old man. i know you. i also know the word you wanted to say in the skipping king line but i'll choose diplomacy

incredible what having a deadline can do
#solved in a matter of days stuff I've been postponing for a month#because now I have a deadline (self imposed even) whereas before I didn't#although now I have very little time and a lot of things to. at the very least. start#personal#better than the boring and endless procrastination
