*watching Dune for the first time, when this scene comes up*

Me, having a strained relationship with my psychologically abusive, narcissistic father, who has never spent time bonding with me, nor has he emotionally supported me once throughout my lifetime:

Boy, the fatphobia in this book is rampant. Herbert can't stop talking about Bellonda's "gross body" 😒😒

Your habits always come hunting after you. The self you construct will haunt you. A ghost wandering around in search of your body, eager to possess you. We are addicted to the self we construct. Slaves to what we have done.

Frank Herbert, Chapterhouse Dune

This is what it means to be human. Try to hold on to youth and it mocks you while it sprints away.

All the Duncan and Murbella scenes bore me out so much. Like yeah we get it, you fuck and you talk, you fuck and you talk

Chapterhouse Dune so far be like: Odrade thinks. She paces around. She thinks again. Idaho thinks about having to restore Teg's original memories. Odrade also thinks about that and other stuff. Scytale also thinks/plots, confined in the no-ship. Odrade thinks some more. She speaks with a Bene Gesserit sister, which causes her to do some more deep thinking. Honoured Matres exist.

#dune #frank herbert #chapterhouse dune #chapterhouse dune spoilers #except not really #i'm halfway through and i hate to say it but it's kinda boring #thank god I love Odrade #so i don't mind her thinking for pages on end #i hate Idaho though. every time i start a chapter with his POV i'm like UGH

Nothing stops until dead and perhaps not even then because each life creates endless ripples.

All governments suffer a recurring problem: Power attracts pathological personalities. It is not that power corrupts but that power is a magnet to the corruptible. Such people have a tendency to become drunk on violence, a condition to which the are quickly addicted.
