I’m breaking my No Tumblr For Lent rule because I really have to share -
I’m 65 pages into Mansfield Park and I can’t stand Edmund. He’s objectively a Good Person (which I can already tell is going to be a rarity in this narrative), but god is he insufferable.
The Crawfords are flakes, but at least they’re entertaining flakes so far.
Austen is always scathingly snarky but this is the first time I think she comes off a bit self-righteous??
#jane austen#mansfield park#btw I already know how the book ends#which is NOT HELPING#the moral of Austen’s books is imo#young women need to leave the damn house#even Lizzie who is already sparkly comes into her own when she leaves#Anne definitely benefits from getting tf away from her Dad’s#afaik Fanny never gets that?#besides visiting her bio family in Southampton#which is literally a manipulation tactic to say#haha see you could be poor and stuffed like sardines#see it could be worse! stay with us it’s your only option!#Fanny clings to William and Edmund because she never finds her people#she starts the novel not valued at all#and ends it valued only as so far as her Aunt finds her Helpful#however#I might be looking at this with too much of a 2024 morality#but that hasn’t really been an issue with other Austen novels#so… is it me? is the problem me?#not to be all women need to be xyz to be interesting…#wouldn’t Fanny make a great sympathetic villain#let my girl be jealous and bitter and totally in denial about it#that would only work if she felt emotionally entitled to Edmund#god this book is such a chore

my fibro meds have truly destroyed my tolerance for antihistamines
#blue chatter#my nose has been v stuffy this week!#I take a Benadryl (already a bad idea) expecting mild spiders and feeling a bit sleepy#and Pass The Fuck Out for 7 hours#okay cool. I’ll do Claritin. it’ll take longer to work but that’s okay-#Pass The Fuck Out For 7 Hours#okay. sure. fine. I’ll take half a Benadryl; it’ll work less effectively but I rly would like to not be so stuffy-#guess what! Pass The Fuck Out For 5 Hours!#which is. teeeeechnically shorter. but still defeats the point#I’m gonna try half a Claritin but those pills are so small already#I know my gabapentin has warnings about anything with drowsiness as a side effect so I tried to do rly low doses#bc it also has those warnings for alcohol and I can drink one drink and feel like. just a tiny bit tired and otherwise fine.#so I thought an antihistamine would be no issue. I was WRONG.#also for context before my fibro meds I was able to take a 24 hour Claritin and be barely even tired#or take 2 Benadryl and feel sleepy and spidery but not actually *fall asleep about it*.#the spiders are unpleasant but Benadryl does work faster for existing stuffiness/allergic reactions. Claritin for me works better as a#preventative measure than a treatment once I’m already sniffly.#by spiders I do mean tactile hallucinations. which funnily enough I have not gotten at all taking Benadryl now.#BECAUSE IM ASLEEP#not awake enough long enough to feel imaginary spiders! which would be an improvement except I cannot keep falling asleep when I’m busy!#this is also why I’ve only been testing this on days I know I won’t have to drive or go to class/have things due that day#bc I suspected the sleepies would be worse even if I did not understand the magnitude#as a side effect I’ve now ruined my sleep schedule enough that my body is used to taking a midday nap and expects it#which is Not Helping

I'm so desperately bored rn. can't do anything. because all I want to do is think about Dan or Jenkins. but I don't want to let myself do that because then I'll lie down and fall asleep and the day will be over and it'll feel like I didn't do anything.
can't even watch anything. nothing feels right. I'm. so bored. I tried drawing but. nope. head empty.
#.. except for him#which is NOT helping#I hate this feeling#someone stab me please#wanted to paint. it's been a few days. but can't.#baaad bad brain feelings#wish I could just stay in my stupid daydreams forever. it feels so much better there.#which is why I can't let myself go there right now. I can already feel myself going back to just. lying in bed daydreaming all day#like. I just. can't stop it. it's all I care about#i just want to be there#I want to be with them and I can't so everything feels pointless#how do you get over that#it keeps happening again and again even when everything's fine#idk I just feel so lost#existence is pointless#maybe I should become one of those horrible people who don't watch/read/interact with anything fictional#but then what would be left#of me I mean.#not much#ugh I'm insufferable right now#personal

Added huge swathes of color to my sleeve today and now my arm hurts.
Like.
It was an expected outcome, but still.

I’m reading a book in Spanish in order to learn the language and I’m absolutely enjoying it, even though it’s kinda hard. I can feel it getting better day by day as I learn new words though
(the book is Cien años de soledad by Gabriel García Márquez in case you were wondering)
#what this is NOT gonna teach me is how to actually speak in Spanish#my socially awkward self is avoiding every possible chance to address natives#which is not helping#so yeah#we’ll see how it goes#i know literally nobody cares#but I’ll keep you updated lmao

as an aroace person with limited sexual experience, no interest in watching porn, and poor sex ed as a teen, there IS something simultaneously funny and vaguely tragic about being 28 adult years old and realising how extremely tiny your frame of reference is for genitalia and deciding you should expand this to better understand bodies (yours and others). and then you're just there like "okay so what the fuck do I even google right now, anyway"
#vivid flashbacks to being 19 and going on scarleteen like 'help what's a clitoris'#anyway society (by which i mean repressed evangelical white brits lol) really marked a whole area of anatomy as off limits huh#and the modern advertising friendly internet does not counteract it

A Pragmatic and surprisingly comforting perspective about the Trump 2nd Presidency from the ACLU
***Apologies if this is how you found out the 2024 election results***
Blacked out part is my name.
I’m not going to let this make me give up. It’s disheartening, and today I will wallow, probably tomorrow too
AND
I will continue to do my part in my community to spread the activism and promote change for the world I want to live in. I want to change the world AND help with the dishes.
And I won’t let an orange pit stain be what stops me from trying to be better.
A link to donate to the ACLU if able and inclined. I know I am
#us politics#donald trump#election 2024#aclu#a promise to myself#how is this comforting you May ask#bc we are not fighting alone or uninformed#we have good and strong groups in our corners defending what we believe in#it’s not over yet#we have to try and pushback#added Alt image descriptions since this is leaving containment#happy to see many engaging with this to either donate time or money or both#really warms the cold heart of mine#wow this broke containment#overall it’s been pretty nice seeing people engaging with it ready to roll up their sleeves and get to work#they did the travel ban right at the beginning of the previous presidency too#also every major civil battle in the last century#brown V board of education- the one that desegregated schools#loving V Virginia- legalized interracial marriage#roe V wade- legalized abortion#United States V Nixon- watergate scandal WHICH LIMITED US PRESIDENTAL POWER#Edwards v. Aguillard- helped allow schools to teach evolution#Planned Parenthood v. Casey- another abortion case#ACLU v. NSA- to stop the NSA spying on wikipedia users#Ingersoll v. Arlene's Flowers- fought to stop LGBTQ discrimination from businesses#Obergefell v. Hodges- case that legalized gay marriage#literally WAY MORE GUYS#so don’t fall into dispair! these are literally one of the good ones!
