"Seven years ago we all went through the flames; and the happiness of some of us since then is, we think, well worth the pain we endured."

Although Dracula was published in 1897, some think that it takes place in 1893 because of the way the days and dates used line up. If that's the case, Jonathan Harker's epilogue, seven years later, would have been added around 1900. A new era bubbling with new change and new conventions. The story ends with Jonathan looking ahead to a new century filled with the unknown and being able to look on the past, despite its darkness, "without despair."

Criticising korean fans when they do something actually dodgy is all fine and good, should go for anyone who does invasive or weird, shit but also the amount of times now I see (usually western) fans just being like. Blatantly xenophobic and racist. Pretty much being like Yuck korean fans.... ?????? You're obsessed with a KOREAN POP ACT? why are you saying Korea like it's a slur you weirdo

Fannie May Store at 11 N. LaSalle Street Chicago (1920)

In 1920, the Fannie May store at 11 N. LaSalle Street was a beloved destination for Chicagoans with a sweet tooth. Founded in 1920, Fannie May quickly became known for its high-quality chocolates and confections, becoming a staple in the city's culinary landscape. The store on LaSalle Street was located in the heart of Chicago's financial district, attracting both office workers and visitors with its decadent treats. The 1920s, known as the Roaring Twenties, were a time of economic prosperity and cultural flourishing, and Fannie May chocolates were a small but delightful part of that era's indulgence and joy.
