For German whump recs: A few German mutuals and I all found out that we all used to love Wolfgang Hohlbein's writing cause his books are incredibly whumpy :D my fave were the 4 Anders books, and I remember Horus being incredibly whumpy. Also if you want to watch sth, I cannot recommend Tatort Saarbrücken enough. It's so good :D

WELL THERE U GO THAT MUST BE WHY TATORT SAARBRÜCKEN WHUMP IS THE ONLY THING I FOUND AJSJDKSKSK

Does anyone have any fave German listening material for immersion?

I'm aware of EasyGerman on YouTube and various programs aimed at learners, but I'm looking more for TV shows, YouTube series, or streamers. Podcasts are fine too.

I love that people saw this:

Adam Schürk: was a long time in Berlin

Victor Ross: comes from Berlin

Moritz Brenner: comes from Berlin

and literally went: AND THEY WERE ROOMMATES!

Got these gems today

how it feel listening to music you can't understand but the vibe tells you everything

[phin-tastic]

i cannot describe the rage i feel when i click on a fight club deep dive youtube essay, and it’s just… some dude, talking about how this film is the purest portrayal of masculinity and how “men love it because it’s so relatable”.

i mean, i love it because it’s relatable. but not in the way those sigma film bros do.

i love it because i’m gay, hate capitalism and would like to recreationally get beat up.

Hi!!! I ADORE ur art, and I blame u for my current flickory obsession shxcncnc

I was wondering if there were any songs that remind you of Floyd and Hickory??

Whether it’s just based on vibes or something you think they’d sing to each other, etc

aaaaah thank you!! I've made it my mission to get as many people to ship Flickory as I can because we are sorely lacking in more Flickory content and I'm happy to see that it's working! 🫡

though I actually don't have that many songs I associate with Flickory, funnily enough?? lmao it's because I like to imagine Floyd and Hickory bonding over a shared love of country music and I just don't gravitate towards a lot of country music fhggfgg

but! There is this song:

also this one, though this one's here mostly because I used it in a fic so it's permanently linked to Flickory in my mind now lol

and then there's this song, which I don't necessarily think has Flickory vibes exactly, I just happened to be thinking about Flickory when it came up on shuffle and boom, instant association

it's important to watch shitty foreign movies, i'm so serious about this. when you only ever watch foreign movies if they make it to the oscars or if they're being talked about online, you have a distorted perception of what they're actually like. they're not prestigious, elitist, inaccessible, or hard to watch. they're just in a different language

[flogisto]

Do you have any book recommendations? I am trying to find some books and stories to get into.

Hey hi sorry for answering so late I really had to think about this because I'm terrible at giving recommendations :(

I'm mostly going to talk about classics because I am more informed on that topic.

My favorite pieces of literature to recommend that are non Sacher-Masoch related are:

- The Sorrows of Young Werther by Goethe

- Kafka's short stories

- Rimbaud's poems

- Fraulein Else by Arthur Schnitzler

then obviously I'm going to tell you to read either Venus in Furs or, if you want something less "sexual" and a bit less sad, Don Juan von Kolomea. The Sacher-Masoch propaganda never stops (plus look through the Jewish Short Stories cause they are also worth it Might be a bit problematic in some aspects but if taken in the context of the 19th century it's actually pretty good)

For some newer stuff that I read this year and that I liked a lot and would recommend I'd say:

- Sándor Marais ("The Embers" has changed my life)

- The World and All That It Holds by Aleksandar Hemon

- The World of Yesterday by Stephan Zweig

Also little bonus: anything by Rilke because he writes so beautifully.

Also for some of them you might want to thread carefully because they do handle sensitive topics. I wouldn't want for your reading experience to be ruined by getting in a bad mental state.
