Just discovered an early Protestant theory about werewolves (the Catholics had their own complicated ideas about whether werewolves were possible and how they worked, don’t worry about it) was that an imbalance of melancholic humors could fuck up your alchemical makeup so badly that you transform into a wolf.
Fellas, you ever get so sad that you just straight-up turn into a fucking wolf? I know I have.

books i've read in 2024: The Luminous Dead by Caitlin Starling
Half of any success was luck. She’d always believed that. It scared a lot of people, and sometimes it made her angry, because of course she wanted to control her fate. But it was true.

Reminded that Camilla duelled a lyctor with nothing on her side but her knives, the audacity, and furious grief.

People used to comment on web comics.
People used to comment on fanfiction.

I hate "content" culture.
I hate "consuming content" and scrolling immediately to the next thing.
People used to be excited about the art that other people created.
People used to want to share that excitement with creators.
I hate this future.

books i've read in 2024: The Ghost Rider (Doruntine) by Ismail Kadare
Who in the world has not yearned for a loved one, has never said, If only he or she could come back just once, just one more time…? Despite the fact that it can never happen, never ever. Surely this is the saddest thing about our mortal world, and its sadness will go on shrouding human life like a blanket of fog until its final extinction.

"ummm you know the writer only included that because they have a FETISH right?" is always so funny to me as a disparaging comment, because imagine if people spoke that way about nonsexual interests. "the lord of the rings? didnt the author only write that because he was interested in linguistics? thanks, i'll pass" "yeah, i used to love spongebob as a kid, but i can never see it the same after finding out stephen hillenburg is a marine biologist :/"
