Desperately Need To Worship Something And Perform Rituals But I Don't Believe In Anything So I Just Have

This is a work of art

my favorite divorce ever. my emotional support heterosexual divorced couple.

two extremely traumatized, messy, insane, unable to communicate, immature, petty yappers.

I love them so much.

Is this really his full name?

It does feel bad sometimes. But tbh I don't even know my own eye color, they look like they have all the colors but with low saturation. And other people sometimes too have it kind of hard to decipher

My entire childhood I didn't understand why do people put eye color in the description of other people, or as one of the main attributes of a missing person. Because I thought "Who even notices this? Eyes are too tiny to be paid that much attention to." Fast forward some years later I find out people DO just casually look into everybody's eyes long enough to notice and remember this detail and I'm the autistic odd one who is distracted by the moving mouth. Still funny to think about.

"Why's your picsart screentime so high??" Me all day:

How could she ever hate them for what was at bottom merely their weakness? She would probably have done things like those that had befallen her if she had lived in one of these houses. To measure them by her own yardstick, as her father put it. Would she not, in all honesty, have done the same as Chuck and Vera and Ben and Mrs Henson and Tom and all these people in their houses? Grace paused and as she did, the clouds scattered and let the moonlight through, and Dogville underwent another of those little changes of light. It was as if the light previously so merciful and faint finally refused to cover up for the town any longer. Suddenly, you could no longer imagine a berry that would appear one day on a gooseberry bush, but only see the thorn that was there right now. The light now penetrated every unevenness and flaw in the buildings and in the people. And all of a sudden, she knew the answer to her question all too well. If she had acted like them, she could not have defended a single one of her actions and could not have condemned them harshly enough. It was as if her sorrow and pain finally assumed their rightful place. No. What they had done was not good enough. And if one had the power to put it to rights, it was one's duty to do so - for the sake of other towns, for the sake of humanity and not least, for the sake of the human being that was Grace herself.

What’s the difference between Sabadil and a painting of Sabadil?? You only need one nail for the painting.

my blog is an inconsistent piece of shit but at least i have fun

every time I read Venus in Furs again and I come to the part where they arrive in Florence I take it so personally. Leopold what do you mean "Suddenly the door is pulled open and the waiter with a theatrical Italian gesture calls [...]"???? Brother he's opening a door. Also "The people are less serious than we; perhaps, they think less, but they all look as though they were happy." please stop Leopold please I am begging you.

long ahh tangent under the cut

and then we could talk here for hours about how Sacher-Masoch fetishezes (pun intended) different cultures and people. He has done it in these examples with Italy but he does something comparable to it in many of his works about Jewish people. Yes, still he was an advocate against antisemism and we should not take that away from him but we need to address how his works do have some pretty blatant antisemitic tropes, here is a good essay about it (academia.edu link and JSTOR link idk which one you prefer). And then obviously the racism in "Venus in Furs" of having black enslaved women as almost "accessories" to the fantasy and the remarks that are written about them which mix racism and misogyny.

sorry rant over y'all can go on with your lives

Nymphomaniac dir Lars Von Trier.

I still have no idea what Masoch died of
