I understand that literature nerd Jason Todd is kind of overblown in fanon compared to it's actual presence in canon (a few issues during his pre (and post?)crisis Robin tenure that highlight it) BUT consider that I think it's hilarious if the unhinged gun toting criminal has strong opinions on poetry

In English we say "I love you so much that it hurts" but in the language of poetry we say:

A conflagration burns within my chest,

A love so vast, it cannot be expressed.

Yet in its fervor, agony resides,

A bittersweet torment, where passion abides.

Pt 2. Of Things my English teacher has said in class:

"Don't just study literature for happiness, but also have some passion and usage: be a hedonistic utilitarian before everything else."

I would've started clapping if the class wasn't so serious.

"To Build a Fire" is available to read here

Something in myself rejects me Perhaps I am someone else.

If it was a piece of paper, I would tear it. If it was bottle, I would break it. If it was a wall, I would tear it down,- but it is my heart.

I can't forget you, not because I have a strong memory, but because I have a heart that never denies those who settled in it once.

Are we what we do with time, or are we what time does with us?

But honestly i do judge people who use chatgpt for their college work. Literally if you chose to study something, why would you use ai for your work. If you chose something you want to study, doesn't it feel like a waste to not do your own research and work for essays and the like.

I felt the most comfortable in my philosophy classes. We questioned everything. Nothing was definite, and nothing was answered. We're all a clueless and unsure bunch. For once, I was assured that it was not just me who was lost.
