Am I happy RWRB got made into a movie? Yes - Casey deserves all good things and this will certainly benefit their career.
Did I have high expectations for the movie? Not particularly. I’ve been burned by movie adaptations too many times (looking at you Ella Enchanted 👀)
Did I like the movie? Well enough - it had its charm. The casting wasn’t terrible. Some of the straight-from-the-book dialogue was squeal inducing.
But fOR THE LOVE OF GOD if they were going to nix June (rip) they could have at least made Nora and Bea even half as amazing as their book-counterparts. You deserved better ladies.

The legacies people leave behind in you.
My handwriting is the same style as the teacher’s who I had when I was nine. I’m now twenty one and he’s been dead eight years but my i’s still curve the same way as his.
I watched the last season of a TV show recently but I started it with my friend in high school. We haven’t spoken in four years.
I make lentil soup through the recipe my gran gave me.
I curl my hair the way my best friend showed me.
I learned to love books because my father loved them first.
How terrifying, how excruciatingly painful to acknowledge this. That I am a jigsaw puzzle of everyone I have briefly known and loved. I carry them on with me even if I don’t know it. How beautiful.

I will say I am sad we didn’t get “I am not ruined. I am ruination.”
Ok it’ll take me awhile to process Shadow & Bone Season 2 and how I feel about the… adjustments they made to the storyline.
BUT
“Know that I loved you. Know that it was not enough.”
anD THEN
“I will have you without armor, Kaz Brekker. Or I will not have you at all.”
Those ones got me y’all.

Raise your hand if there’s a show that you just have no interest in watching but Tumblr has made you care about one particular ship so every month or so you check the tag just to see how things are progressing and catch up on GIFs.

have you ever noticed you pick up little habits and phrases from the people you love? it’s no wonder our hearts are so easily broken when people leave. we become a reflection of the people that we care about and those personality traits stick with us even if the people don’t

I get my media recommendations the old fashioned way: by watching someone I follow on here go on an unhinged reblog spree of media related content until I eventually decide to go "alright, what's all this then"

Few things have convinced me that Tumblr couldn’t give two shits about advertising more than the fact that I, a cis-woman, cannot get them to stop exclusively giving me sponsored posts about manscaping.

Umm yes. “You’re my favorite person. I need you to believe me” I mean come onnnnnn 😭😭😭😭
I think my favorite small moment in Heartstopper is at the party after Nick finds Charlie again and you can tell he finally feels right.
But then Charlie says he saw Ben and Nick just has this moment of total devastation (like omg give Kit Connor all the awards just for his facial expressions). It’s like he’s afraid Charlie is going to say “Ben apologized and we worked it all out!” right as Nick has finally admitted to himself that all he wants is to be around Charlie and my heart just cannot handle the feelings.
Anyway what’s your favorite random moment?

I am really struggling with the timeline of Colbourne’s life. Make it make sense.
Apparently Lucy and Augusta’s mother were twins? But clearly Augusta’s mother got married and procreated at least what, 4 or 5 years sooner than Lucy? Or is Leonora way older than I think she is?
Colbourne said that he and Lucy got married young (clearly not as young as her sister?) and that her intention was to stay just one final season in London after their wedding. If that’s the case then whatever affair she had with Lennox couldn’t have happened more than a year after their wedding, right? Which means Leo followed within another year…
Then Colbourne said Lucy walked out into the rain not long after Leo was born. Who knows what that means, but say within another year at the most? So is Augusta’s memory of Lucy “often” staying with them in London just remembering that one prolonged stay after she got married before I assume she went to Colbourne’s estate once she was pregnant?
Maybe I’m missing something. Just seems sloppy.

the line between not going out as an act of self-care and not going out as a symptom of depression is but a gossamer thread
