In Uzbek we have this concept of the divine dark, the darkness from which all things came. So there’s this idea that shows up in a lot of our literature that when the world was first made it was like a gentle night, peaceful, quiet and pitch-black. The night is when creation started and the night is when you’re closest to glimpsing what it was like at the very start of the world.

oh wow that's gorgeous.

cryptid culture

typing in lowercases only!

sleep?!?

always searching for something to explore

finds comfort in the weirdest places

nighttime is my only functioning time of the day

conspiracy theories

aspires to become local cryptid

VAST knowledge of urban legends and local cryptids

seeks out ghosts to befriend

Small Town Gothic

~ You pass a church driving down Main Street. You pass a church driving down Main Street. You pass a church driving down Main Street.

~ Walking down the sidewalk, you pass someone unfamiliar. You turn to your friend and ask who it was. “Oh, you know….” But you do not know. Neither do they. No one does.

~ You notice the scratch marks every time you drive over that bridge. Nobody ever did find out what it was that jumped over the railing and into the water below that night.

~ You overhear someone talking about that abandoned diner on Oak Street. But it can’t be abandoned, you think. The lights are on every time you drive past it.

~ You’re out on your porch late at night when a pack of coyotes screams in the distance. You head back inside. Coyotes have never lived around here.

a few of my favourite mary shelley facts (a short list):

since it is my one true love’s 219th birthday today, I thought I would share some of my favourite facts about her and her incredible life:

she was the daughter of two of the most famous philosophers of the 18th century so she was kind of a bona-fide celebrity and grew up surronded by some of the leading intellects of the 18th and 19th centuries

frankenstein was published anonymously and until mary revealed herself, it was commonly thought to have been written by shelley due him writing the preface

there are two editions of frankenstein: the original published in 1818 and a revised one published in 1831 (most editions publish the latter)

the only reason the summer in geneva happened was because byron wanted to meet mary

he and mary were lifelong friends and she continued to edit and advise on his poetry until his death

she dedicated frankenstein to her father, who had disowned her at the time for running off with percy shelley (a married man)

speaking of, frankenstein itself (or at least the 1818 edition) is about the consequences of abandoning one’s responsibilities/child

when she ran away with shelley (which is what she called him), she thought her father would support her as he embodied much of his philosophical ideals

she and shelley fell in love while visiting her mother’s grave (and possibly consummated their relationship there)

the two often shared a journal and read together at night

they both read and edited each other’s work and were each other’s greatest collaborators

she was pregnant five times during her life; she gave birth four times but only one child lived into adulthood

shelley saved her life during her last miscarriage when she was hemorrhaging and he ordered her to sit on ice until the doctor arrived… that action was the only reason she survived

after shelley’s tragic death, she dedicated herself to sharing his poetry and his life story with the world… despite being banned by his uncle from writing a memoir, her notes on his published poems are so thorough that they almost act as a memoir. it is thanks to her efforts that he is the canonical poet we know and love

she was devoted to her only surviving son and his wife and lived with them until her death

a year after her death, her family opened her box-desk and found locks of her dead children’s hair, a shared notebook between her and shelley, and a copy of adonaïs (a poem by shelley) with one page folded around a parcel containing some of the ashes and remains of his heart

despite being known for frankenstein, she wrote many other novels including the last man, one of the first pieces of post-apocalyptic fiction

weird how every single thing we ever experience is cosmically mundane but individually profound
