Paper, they say, does not blush, but I assure you it's not true and that it's blushing just as I am now.

What dosto characters do you have in Sims (also if you have Raskolnikov give him all possible mental illnesses)

hi anon!!

okay so from crime and punishment I have: Raskolnikov, Razumikhin, Dunya and Sonya (I plan on making Luzhin and Lebezyatnikov too soon)

from the brothers Karamazov I made: Alyosha, Ivan, Dmitri, Pavel, Fyodor, Grushenka and Rakitin (Katya, madam Khokhlakov and Lise are next)

and from the Idiot I've got: Myshkin, Rogozhin, Nastasya, Kolya, Ganya, Varya, Ptitsyn, General Ivolgin, Nina, and Ippolit (once I've made the right house I plan on making the Yepanchins as well)

so yeah, that's who I've got so far ahzhsh

maybe when I'm playing the Sims again I'll see if I can make some screenshots lmao

they've already been acting really in character, especially the brothers Karamazov characters (with whom I've already played the most), I can't wait to see them all interacting more with eachother

fun fact: I also have some anime characters in my the sims universe, and it's really funny to see the anime characters interact with the Dosto characters (like one time Alyosha was in the park and Light Yagami started throwing insults at him for no reason, then they made up, played a chess match and departed as friends)

I also plan on making more Sims from different classic lit, like Frankenstein, Dracula, maybe some Shakespeare characters

#ask #vince talks #writing it like this I'm realising that this might be a little bit of a weird way to pass the time but oh well

BK Characters but as HSM Songs

Mitya: Bet On It — “It's no good at all to see yourself and not recognize your face. Out on my own, it's such a scary place ooh.”

Ivan: Scream — “Voices in my head tell me they know best.”

Alyosha: We’re All in This Together — “We’re not the same, we’re different in our own way. Together’s where we belong.”

Grushenka: Fabulous — “I need a little ✨fabulous✨ is that so wrong?”

Katya: Walk Away — “A Cinderella with no shoe and a Prince who doesn’t know he’s lost.”

Madame Khokhlakov: A Night to Remember — “Should I go movie star glamorous, sassy or sweet? Don't know, but no one better wear the same dress as me.”

Ivan and Katya: Can I Have This Dance — “Take my hand, I'll take the lead and every turn will be safe with me. Don't be afraid, afraid to fall. You know I'll catch you through it all.”

Mitya and Grushenka: Everyday — “Gonna run while we’re young and keep the faith.”

Alyosha and Lise: Start of Something New — “And the world looks so much brighter with you by my side.”

The bros all showing up at their father’s house: The Boys Are Back — “Climbing up the walls anytime we want. The word is out, the boys are back.” (cue Alyosha hopping that fence like a little deer)

Smerdyakov: Stick to the Status Quo — “I love to bake. Strudels, scones, even apple pandowdy.” (Grigory: “Not another sound! 😩”)

Smerdyakov, in the kitchen alone: Work This Out — “How did we get from the top of the world to the bottom of the heap? I don't recall you mentioning the boss is such a creep.”

I was getting a little bored with the trial and Ms. Khokhlakov’s goofy insanity defense comic relief. But the Hell Kitten chapter with Lise was very good. Maybe the courtroom drama stuff is innovative, but when Dostoyevsky is illiberal, it’s irritating, a little bit.

Kolya, the precocious young socialist and leader of the boys, I didn’t talk about him, but I loved him, of course. Fantastic character, and his interactions with Alyosha were beautiful. I’ve never connected these things before, but there is something Dante-esque in the way that sanity, kindness, honesty and faith untangle human misery and violence. And misery begets misery.

Talking about the mechanics of Dostoyevsky’s universe, that is one of the things I’ve been thinking about most. Our Alyosha, (our Dostoyevsky), is very confident in his assessment of human nature, of the mechanics of the spirit, Psychology, and everything obeys, even when it is so absurd and confounding, if not downright horrifying. But still very orderly. When order and disorder are so predictable and well accounted for, you really can’t fear anything, can you? I mean, this is the logic of faith. You walk into the thresher knowing no matter what happens to you, the dialectic is going to lead you to salvation. Shredded, but saved. And the kindness you give, your sanity, honesty and faith, is this courage you leave behind to others, to survive the grinder with you. Maybe it works maybe it doesn’t. But you never get the whole picture in your one lifetime. You just have your little shattered shard of the hologram you keep with you, that little seed, you carry inside you as they turn you into sausage.

Clearly I agree.

But that’s all very clean. And I guess that’s what I think about. In a novel, you can create this very complete world, so much like our own, specifically at its most manic and epileptic, dark and blinding. Even that wide prattling middle. All of it’s tiniest aspects made clear. Which is a good sign of an accurate model of the universe.

Well, the important thing, no, the unimportant thing, is that it teaches us very little. I was thinking, that we are constantly at a loss that the only true spiritual content is silence. And we demand answers. We clog the space with our reactions and solutions. In the way that it seems to me that the only way to understand or honor God is to be an atheist, a nihilist, to worship and adore Satan, to ponder lustfully about evil while rejecting it but still living sensually, vengefully, vulgarly. But with forgiveness, holiness, quietude. To contain complexity and paradise and hell within yourself but choose the most impossible paradise. It’s the only way to honor it, really. That silent white corner that cannot be seen, understood, or even accurately remembered. You have to tend to it, pull the furniture from the wall and sweep the garbage from there even as it reaches the ceiling.

And always adding to the garbage.

And that blind thing is somehow more powerful than the absurdity of it. And I think that’s the most accurate way to describe it. But then, what are you talking about? To this world of chauvinists, you can offer no concessions. They are the greatest evil there is. You have to don the horns.

But I feel like I missed the thing I was driving at, the nuance. Back to it, of course this book is so far very tidy and complete. But even if the paradoxical nature of the world was so perfectly honored, why wouldn’t that also be wrong? Maybe? There are so many sinister variations, such a wide confusing middle, millions live and die and maybe never see light or dark, just dim anxiety that flickers in and out and dies. And that’s what I’ve been seeing for years. Dostoyevsky is so comforting, even in his blackness, because of these mechanics, this play of extremes.

I guess you can only know your own life, every life you touch. And from that perspective at least, the outlook is surprisingly hopeful. Despite absolutely everything.
