the timanfaya devil

Hi, people

I wanted to share something fun with you.

it's a fable

Not so long ago, I returned from holidays in Lanzarote (one of the Canary Islands). And of course, me being me, I had to buy some cool souvenirs. What I noticed on the souvenirs on various stands was a lengthy pattern of a devil. A cartoon looking like a devil with horns, a tail and a five-pronged fork. My mom, behaving like a Catholic of god blessed heart, told me off when I bought a pin with its image, thinking it looked satanic. Well, it did. But there is a story to it. (fable under the cut <3)

“Legend has it that on September 1, 1730, a wedding was taking place in the town of Timanfaya. The groom was the son of one of the richest people on the island and the brides family worked in the cultivation of healing plants. In the middle of the celebration, a huge explosion shook the earth and rocks and lava began to rain down, destroying everything in its path. The guests and the towns people began to run for shelter, but misfortune befell the young couple. A large rock from the volcano crushed and buried the bride. When the groom saw this, he took a 5-point fork to try to move the large stone and save his bride. When he finally succeeds, he realizes that his beloved had died. From his desperation and the feeling of desolation, he took the body of his wife without letting go of the fork and began to run through the valley seeking refuge. However, unfortunately he couldn’t find anyone. Despite the smoke and ashes, some villagers could see the moonlit young man on a hill. He raised the 5-pronged fork with his two arms and the witnesses sighed in sadness “poor devil” The image of the bridegroom then disappeared in the fiery terrain of Lanzarote.”

After I red that out loud to my mom, she just scoffed and said, quote: 'whatever.'

Gladly my dad was more perceptive, and said it's a sad story and the pin I bought was really nice.

Just wanted to share it with you. Bye bye. <3

Am I the only one that LOVES a little philosophy trope in a non-philosophic book?

I just realized that these little details that mention stoicism or absurdism in books or movies bring me more joy than the whole plot.

For example, in death note, the idea of light destroying all as he might think "evil-doers" will bring only peace and joy to the world.

For the record - yes, I realize that light as a character is probably mentally ill, and his desire to kill is unhinged. And if you think you can change him: No, you can't.

But lately, I've had a repeating shower thought: if light did accomplish his goal of killing all the "evil-doers" would he realize that without evil, good can't be named good? If there's no evil, then what is good? If it happened, does goodness even exist? Had he ever thought about that?

probably not

for me, the morality of a human being is fluid - it's changing. There can't be an evil or perfect person. Maybe some people may think that good can exist without evil. I may think it's not right. There needs to be harmony.

that's all form me for now. byeeeeeeeeeeee

"the devil's advocate"

"The Devil's Advocate"

Hands down to Andrew Neiderman for writing this book. Hands down to Taylor Hackford for the movie adaptation.

This movie is a genesis of me liking men older than me. It is one of these movies that you think are better than the book, but of course you are wrong. The book "Devil's Advocate" kept me enterteined my whole summer 2022. If I could sentence it in one word it would be "mindfuck". The prologue, hidden meanings, the perfect circle ending and the main character going slightly mad.

I adore the parts where the moments in the books are definitely more intense than in the movie. The movie grows in the feeling of rage and confusion, the book is moderately diffrent.

Neiderman tells us the story of a young, ambitious and promising advocate - Kevin Taylor (played by Keanu Reeves which is just *mwah* cheff's kiss). His insecure ego needs something more than some small robberies and divorce cases.

What keeps us entertained in the beginning of the book is the case of the sexual assault on Barbara Stanley. It's a breakthrough for his career. He ends up in New York, and everything goes downhill from there.

No more questions your honour. No more questions.

"Perfume: The story of a murderer"

About two years ago, I went into the local bookstore to search for some new literature.

I thought that one more time, I might leave with my hands empty. But then I looked into the belles-lettres section. And what I found there was one of the best books I've ever read. A novel by Patrick Suskind. A story about how desire and skill can drive into self-destruction. "Perfume: The story of a murderer" can't be described by a single sentence. And yes, maybe it's a book quite difficult to read for some people. But it's worth the trouble.

Now something about the book itself. The book starts with a simple introduction to the world. The action takes place in 18th-century France. From Paris, where the main character was born, to Grasse, where he learned and mastered the art of perfumery. Jean-Baptiste's inhuman sense of scent mixed with dark and murderous desires lead him to kill innocent women of Grasse. To create the most beautiful perfume that'll make him invincible and loved by everyone in the world.

The book's filled with the atmosphere of a dark fairy tale

All of it finished with a hint of grotesque and traumatic events.

Trust me. It is worth a shot.
