if horatio just gave hamlet some head he'd still be alive

Maybe this is just a symptom of BPD but does anyone else ever feel emotions so intensely they almost want to throw up
Like when I’m angry I’m angry and other feelings like guilt or emptiness make me want to die.
I hate the “Thoreau’s mom did his laundry” criticism so much, it drives me crazy.
Henry Thoreau did not go to Walden Pond because he thought it would be a fun adventure. He went into the woods because he was deeply depressed and burnt out. He was running from the horror of his brother and best friend recently dying in his arms, and the haunting memory of causing the Fairhaven Bay fire. His friend Ellery Channing literally gave him the ultimatum of either taking some time off to write and think, or else be institutionalized.
I think Thoreau’s mother saw her depressed son choosing to retreat into a small cabin in the woods, and was worried about him. Of course she did his laundry - just as Ralph Waldo Emerson probably brought him firewood and bread. These were not chores of obligation to support a “great” man, but services of love to help their deeply depressed 28yo son and friend.
And if you ask me, there’s a lesson in that - to “suck out the marrow of life” and “live deliberately,” one must also accept help offered from the people in your life who love you. There is no true transcendentalism or individualism without love and friendship behind it.
I’ve decided to be sexier in 2020. There will be with no actual effort on my part, l just intend to be perceived as such
hey check THIS shit out: *treats you with mutual respect*
What makes you think that hitting a child will educate them? It’ll just traumatize and scare them. Don’t be disgusting.
literally i just can’t comprehend any interpretation of hamlet that doesn’t put grief at the center like. hamlet’s father died and he is actively grieving throughout the play that is the driver of all of his behavior. “is hamlet actually crazy or is he putting on a performance” is a boring question to me because grief is a type of insanity. grief makes you feel like you are performing even when you are all alone. it makes you feel like you’re seeing things it makes you feel completely alone it makes you cling to the people around you it makes you push them away it makes you angry and sad and hamlet wants to kill claudius for replacing his father and taking his mother from him as much as he wants to kill him for revenge.
Hamlet: Do you have the time?
Horatio: For you, Hamlet? Hamlet, are you joking? Are you joking me? Hamlet. I will always have time for you. My time may be precious but you are more so. Hamlet, you… are a shining pearl in a sea of mediocrity. I would do anything for you.
Hamlet: No, like what time is it?
