Mina: "I hope it's not too presumptuous to pray that God doesn't massacre Jonathan in a blind angry wrath against me. As for me, I am dirt on the ground, so I deserve whatever's coming to me."
VH: "... I'm taking this typewriter away until you can think of 3 nice things to write about yourself."

Animal of the Day!
Admirable Red-Bellied Toad (Melanophryniscus admirabilis)
Tumblr media
(Photo from Amphibian Survival Alliance)
Conservation Status- Critically Endangered
Habitat- Southern Brazil
Size (Weight/Length)- 6 cm
Diet- Small insects
Cool Facts- The admirable red-bellied toad, or sapinho admirável de barriga vermelha as they are known in Portuguese, is a newly described species of toad as of 2006. They have one of the smallest ranges of any toad, only 700 meters alongside the Forqueta River. Their greatest threat is the farms upriver of their habitat. Pesticide run-off from agriculture leeches into the River and kills off the insects the toads rely on for food, along with permeating the toad’s sensitive skin. Conservationists are working with the Brazilian government to create protections for the admirable red-bellied toad's habitat and working with local farmers to limit pesticides. There are aims for starting a captive breeding program in the near future.
Rating- 13/10 (Extremely high levels of antimicrobial resistance.)

I was curious about what the weather is like in the Carpathians at this time of year, given how much emphasis Mina puts today on how cold it is.
I'm not sure how far they've got but this is in roughly the right region:
Tumblr media
I think there are three possibilities:
Bram Stoker's attention to detail ranges from the Lucy's hair colour end of the spectrum to the train timetables end of the spectrum, and maybe weather is on the hair colour end.
Cold weather is more dramatic so who cares what's realistic.
125-year-old novel provides unexpected and depressing insight into the impacts of climate change.

the “We are not worried with other travellers, and so even I can drive” line suggests one of two things:
1. People would be scandalized/offended if they saw a woman driving a team of horses (sexist, not very fun)
2. Mina is an actual menace to society who Cannot drive a cart without running somebody off the road and thus is banned from driving on busy roads (fun, intriguing, has Mina run someone over with a horse in the past??)

Traditions. Mexico magic and encounter. November 2. Day of the dead.
Tumblr media
"People who have died are gone when the oblivion of the one they love in their indifference buries them. But they harbor that some will never be able to forget them... carrying the hope and joy that they will always be in the hearts of those who remember them".

LORD GODALMING'S JOURNAL
November 2.—Jonathan is asleep and breathing softly. The roses seem coming back already to his cheeks and he looks, oh, so sweet. I wonder what Mina—I call her Mina from his habit—would say if she saw him now. Jonathan told me she often watches him sleep and, indeed, I don't wonder that she does.
He always wakes prettily, and even now, on this steam launcher, he did not lose his grace. All his old gaiety of manner seemed to have come back, and he came and snuggled up beside me by the fire, and told me all about the history of the Szekelys.

We both seem in good spirits; I think we make an effort each to cheer the other; in the doing so we cheer ourselves.
Mina: These dear horses are patient and good.
Van Helsing: They are.
Mina: *riding in silence*
Van Helsing: *driving in silence*
Mina: If we see Dracula on the road, whoever's driving--
Van Helsing: We'll drive the horses to stomp the shit out of him.
Mina: Thank you.
