I love the deer in the headlight kicked dog look Armand has whenever he. m well whenever he does anything actually but specifically when he is doing that awful written apology and no one listens. Yeah man that's how it is

working with kids and one of them says “you know you eat 8 spiders a night on average right?” and another goes “no no no those statistics are actually skewed by people who like eat spiders recreationally for fun and stuff” and my head snapped up like a fucking sleeper agent

Memento Vivere status update from me and Luca : there'll be a hiatus between now and October with new written chapters, so we can build a backlog again but also, and mainly, because graduating is unfortunately a huge commitment. Secondary illustrations unconnected from the chapters will still be coming out on here, once my tablet stops overheating in the heatwave. Luca, who does the translation work for the chapters, is graduating and thus focusing on his master's thesis in these months

We'll be coming back to what our protagonists need to talk about so desperately once the season gets colder :-)

Drunk as fuuuck and texting everyone i know. telling them they don't understand the nuances of the twilight series. Called my ex wife 40 times and left a message asking her for a 3some w Kermit the frog. No answer! Sad

How people get nicknames:

Recipient of a third-degree burn in front of witnesses. IE, "I won't take that shit from a man dressed like a ghostbuster"= "Gostbuster" or "Buster"

A distinctive personal feature or quirk. IE, "Have you noticed how that new guy is always eating bell peppers?" = "Peppers", or "That chick has a massive forehead" = "Forehead".

An embarrassing thing you said or did. IE, "Did you seriously call Dale "Dad"?" = "Junior", "Baby boy", "Sport"

A game of name-mutation telephone. IE, "Donny Clyde" = "Bonnie 'n' Clyde" = "Bonnie" = "Bon-bon".

Irony. IE, calling a tall person "short stack" or a particularly dour person "sunshine".

A 'wrong place wrong time' one-off incident. IE, "He spilled oil on his pants and had to borrow a pair that were way too big and Jim saw him with the waistband pulled up to his nipples and called him 'Parachute'"

A batman-style origin story but not in a cool way: "One time she hit a deer with the company car and when she called the boss to tell her she was crying so hard we thought she was dying" = "Bambi"

The incredibly rare 'admiration' nickname, bourne only once a millennia under the light of the blood moon: "We saw him lift a truck once so now we call him 'iron man'"

+ How Nicknames Stick:

Your fate is determined by The Counsel

You hate it

It's accurate

New Memento Vivere chapter drop!!

i feel like i’m going insane rn because no one else seems to be mentioning this in the wider wuthering heights 2026 discourse but i watched that movie last night and i cannot get over how ABLEIST it is

context, i’m a psychologist and work with kids and teens, mostly with learning disorders and adhd but we do get some kids with intellectual disabilities and autism, sometimes both.

i cannot help but notice how isabella is such a distasteful stereotype of autistic people with ID, from the very first moment her misplaced confidence, her childishly friendly and enthusiastic but overly rigid demeanor, and her inability to read social cues is played for laughs. the way she’s dressed to me is a dead giveaway of a character who is coded like someone who does not understand how to exist in society. there are running gags about whether she’s mature enough and even capable of understanding sex in general and with heathcliff, which is a common prejudice against people with ID.

and the way she is framed in the film doesn’t feel like just having a character there who happens to be like this, it feels demeaning, like the audience is expected to find it funny.

add to this that, while isabella in the book is somewhat childish and sheltered and socially unaware, she is nowhere near the character they made her into here. so really there was no need to make her into such a blatant stereotype.

i felt uncomfortable watching this movie, it felt like watching a middle schooler try to mock one of my patients tbh, and i imagine that people with firsthand experience clocked this too (or will tell me that i’m wrong if i am yknow)

plus the moment she starts having Freaky (not really) Sex with heathcliff she stopped acting like a neurodivergent person. great job everyone. i don’t even know what this was supposed to signify but it sucks

i would make the worst kind of vampire because i would always be like "hey check out how long i can go without blood lol" as a form of guilty self-harm poorly disguised as discipline and then black out and binge-slaughter a bunch of people, only reinforcing my conviction that i need to develop better self control by starving myself as often as possible
