guys if you fucking loved liked Nabhaan Rizwan as Dionysus in Kaos PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE I beg watch Station Eleven. It's got apocalyptic Shakespeare and depressed comic artists and your favorite reluctant parent trope. He's only in a few episodes but oml the emotional rollercoaster is worth it.

“There’s a low-level, specific pain in having to accept that putting up with you requires a certain generosity of spirit in your loved ones.”

The previous versions of herself were so distant now that remembering them was almost like remembering other people, acquaintances, young women who she'd known a long time ago, and she felt such compassion for them.

Currently thinking about:
"It was beautiful. It was the most beautiful place I had ever seen. It was gorgeous and claustrophobic. I loved it and I always wanted to escape."
and
"Hell is the absence of the people you long for"
how I got through this stupid book without crying is beyond me
#Just finished Station Eleven#am not okay#alright most of it wasn't that sad#it was just really melancholic#and the quotes#dear god the quotes#had me in tears#Station Eleven#emily st. john mandel

I hear my own voice whispering, "I want to go home, I want to go home, I want to go home," although where is home if not there?

Respect Women Who Write
Two things I found out about writers I like last year:
Taylor Jenkins Reid thanked her husband for taking care of domestic stuff so she could write and thrive like she's doing now.
Emily St. John Mendel got a divorce but couldn't edit her Wikipedia page because no one ever asked her about it in an interview. She got on social media to ask someone to interview her so she could edit her marital status on Wikipedia.
I'm actually translating a book about male writers' wives this year and the shocking things I read, I can never put them all into words. These two women's experiences hit me differently after I read about women who wanted to write or create reduced to just "the writer's wives".
I have mad respect for all of them, especially for Taylor Jenkins Reid who dared to demand the rights male writers have always had; for Emily St. John Mendel to get out of a marriage and be openly happy about it. Congrats to all women who got rid of the mindset that women need to be accessories to male writers.
