Please remember that Contessa Guiccioli, Byron's lover while he was in Ravenna, wrote her Recollections of Lord Byron after he died and these are some of the chapters:

(through gritted teeth) there's so much to learn (through sobs) there's so much to learn (through maniacal laughter) there's so much to learn (through sleepy eyes) there's so much to learn (through a tired smile) there's so much to learn

i'm tired of otherwise-lighthearted media pushing this global obsession with being the best at something. exhausted with protagonists whose one driving motivation is to be the best in their chosen field, like that's a noble and healthy thing.
because see, there are nearly 8 billion people on this gorgeous godless blue earth. many-if-not-most of us live in abusive economies wherein we are regularly pushed to our limits to overachieve, at the cost of our health, happiness, and personal lives. being the very very best at something, out of all 8 billion humans on the planet, does not happen because of automatic talent or being divinely appointed by god/s. it happens because of talent, plus thousands upon thousands of hours spent in practice. and if those thousands-upon-thousands of hours come at the cost of your inner healthy and balance--as living under high psychological pressure often does--that's not noble. that's self-abuse.
and while I deeply empathize with characters who feel that pressure to push themselves to unhealthy extremes, I want to see that philosophy ultimately rejected, not romanticized. No one needs to be the best. No one even needs to do their personal best, not all of the time. It's okay to live life without constantly trying to measure up to something. It's okay to just live.

the way hannibal made me think that wolf trap virginia would be this cozy little town in the middle of nowhere with like evergreen trees and farm houses and places to hunt and fish, and like it is cozy and a little bit out there but it's like an exit off a highway and it's a suburb for rich people. wills house was filmed in canada 😔
srry to ruin your immersion

dried gajra on my desk, an unopened pack of henna, my dusty old guitar with a string torn, sunlight bouncing off of my chaandi ke payal, old music sheets everywhere, strawberry cigerettes and forget me not flowers.

Μια φίλη μου, μου ειπε πως "επιλεγεις απο ποιον θα πληγωθεις"
Ισως αυτο μας ποναει τοσο. Η συνειδητή απόφαση να επιτρεψεις σε καποιον να σε καταστρέψει.

OKEJ MAM BARDZO CHAOTYCZNĄ WIZJE
album muzyczny coś pomiędzy taylor swift, hozierem, laną del rey i markiem grechutą
ale wszystkie piosenki opowiadają historię (miłosną ofc!!) Słowackiego i Krasińskiego, teksty utworów są dosłownie wzięte z ich listów i wierszy i w ogóle
"DO ZYGMUNTA" TO MUSI BYĆ OSOBNY UTWÓR BO UMRĘ
CZY TO WIDZICIE BŁAGAM POWIEDZCIE, ŻE TAK

I tried reading Polidori’s “The Vampyre” one night before I went to sleep and I for the life of me cannot remember a single word from it or anything that happened.
But I do remember that the author was very pretty:
