There is no amount of money, oil, or gold that is worth more than having bees, trees, and clean water.

I am once again begging and pleading to people who don't like evil people in their shows to stop watching the everybody is evil show

[mementomauri]

I do have a fondness for how gothic and erotic lit had a certain barrier to entry. Like I do love more ppl getting into the vampire chronicles and I'll always be happy to have more Loustat fans but those books are weird and melancholic and erotic and philosophical and constantly testing boundaries and asking questions. And it feels like ppl are expecting or wanting "the vampire diaries but gay". The books have uncomfortable moments and the characters will do and say and believe things that make you double take but so much of the books are just "how moral can I be when nothing matters and I'm immortal?"

This isn't just a tale of gay vampires. It's a haunting philosophical treatise about life, mortality, morality, death, depression, incest, rape, love, regret, and the Pain Of Time. It can be fun and it can be gross and it can be wonderful but it's not for the timid.

1000% it is uncomfortable subject matter, and not for the faint of heart. Wrapped up in a unique writing style. Every character becomes more problematic the more you read, and the more I read the less likely I am to recommend the series to others. It would be interesting to study from a Woman's Lit perspective. But I genuinely think she would have had a difficult time being published today.

THE VAMPIRE LESTAT Episode 5 — New York

[entretienavecunvampire]

armand going to AA meetings and following the 12 steps is actually so unexpectedly in character for him

things armand loves:

structure

group of people meeting regularly and following the same rules

abstinence and self-denial

he sees an AA meeting and his eyes light up with a kaching noise like in a cartoon. he’s like oh great, rules given to me by a higher power? an opportunity for self-flagellation? set steps i have to follow to cleanse me of my sins?

of COURSE he’s signing up instantly and attending 3 meetings a day
