If you ever feel bad about forgetting something important or losing something just remember that the Nazis stole the most valuable object in the world, the Amber Room and then lost it after the war.
Me: I read the book, so the TV adaption cant hurt me
We Were Liars: are you sure about that?
"i don't want to burn again."

Am I the only one who doesn't like festivals in farming sims, especially in the beginning? Like bitch my grandpa just died and I inherited this ugly run-down farm, I got a bazillion other things to do. I don’t have time to learn mini-games and get rejected at the spring dance I want to buy some seeds open your damn shops you lazy assholes
So I started playing Coral Island
Good morning to all the mentally ill, lonely, fictional robot/AI-loverz. Behold my hottest take.
full offense but if you only support cult survivors who were born into the cult or their family joined when they were children, you don’t support cult survivors.
everyone can be a victim of a cult and you’re not special or better than people who joined as adults just because you haven’t yet.

Haha anyone else feel this way sometimes?
hypothesis: the great tragedy of my dark vanessa is not what strane did to her, but the way she never healed from it. the way it consumed her life.
it’s why his suicide is smack dab in the middle of the book, why it’s just another plot point rather than the climax. i saw people complaining about how the story dragged on after his death, how the 2007 plot-line felt unnecessary or out-of-place. what they’re missing is that mdv is not about vanessa’s relationship with strane, not really—the main story is her reckoning with herself.
the actual climax of the book is her revelations with ruby in therapy, the reveal of what the past 18 years has entailed for vanessa. strane’s ultimate fate is therefore, to a certain extent, extraneous: irrelevant outside of its effect on vanessa’s ability to move forward. this is vanessa’s story, not strane’s.
I keep coming back to this post every time I think about my dark Vanessa.
Vanessa to me always will be interesting because I don't think she will ever see herself as a victim. She clings to the belief that what happened between her and Strane was love, because to admit otherwise would mean acknowledging the profound violation of her agency. I truly believe this psychological entrapment prevents her from truly healing, leaving her in a suspended state where her past continues to dictate her present.
What I truly love about this book is that unlike many survivor narratives that focus on resilience and overcoming trauma, Vanessa's story is one of stagnation, self-denial, and emotional isolation. Her inability to process what happened keeps her from ever forming healthy relationships, pursuing happiness, or reclaiming her sense of self. She lives in a world where Strane’s influence sadly NEVER fades, even long after their relationship and Strane's life ends. The saddest truth is the damage he inflicted was not just in the past, but an ongoing wound that never truly closes.
idk if anyone else has seen the surge of memes making fun of cave divers recently. there was a comment on one that was like "cave divers with 4 kids, 2 degrees, a loving wife and a huge house when they learn that Satan's Sphincter has a 0% survival rate" it had me crying laughing
Violet and Xaden: *yelling at each other*
Brennan: Being louder doesn’t make you right.
Violet: It makes me not hear him being wrong.
Mira: I love her.
