on the other hand ive been reading othello today and i know it's shocking ive read 23 shakespeare plays and it took me this long to finally get to othello. in my defense the riverside shakespeare (1973) is a hell of a drug. i have always been reading the plays in no particular order other than what my whims directed me to. i read the winter's tale last year because my professor mentioned it offhandedly. one of the first comedies i read was all's well that ends well not because i knew anything about it, or even heard anyone say it was good, but because i liked the title and i knew there was a character with my name in it. i read all over the place but yeah by far the most significant play i still hadn't read as of a week ago was othello, and now i'm more than halfway through it and. yeah.
i haven't read a pure shakespeare tragedy in three and a half years. ive mostly been reading the histories this year in particular. i think i might generally neglect the tragedies because i find the comedies and romances to be more whimsical and fun, and the histories to be more devilish and bloodthirsty and action-packed, however that is to my regret because my whims have not leaned more towards a tragedy in all that time. i still watch them on occasion but that's different.
i haven't felt this deeply connected to the characters in his plays in such a long time, my god. i absolutely love othello and my heart is aching. desdemona can do no wrong. cassio is poor and unfortunate. i want to rip iago's eyes out. oh my god wow.

Despair over how i am not who you think i am. If i were totally different, it would be so. Thinking back to all of those times that i had during college years, both of my so called parents aint shit. I know why they call it a dune buggy. Its because it creeps in the sand. My favorite thing about myself might be quite different from your favorite thing about yourself. If i were to go through the extremes, i would be fine. Even from a martial artists standpoint. Give him Death. For going along with others made up for him on his social media page. I cant quite win a fight against whats not possible. Therefore, i watch as Time passes by and i grow colder and colder to those who i think of as not being exactly the same as me. When im still groggy and waking up in the morning, i get a terrific sensation that everything is right with me and that nothing can take away from me being me. Or so, i thought. Death is your final destination. After Death, comes Life. The pre-ambles to a crucible in todays modern society is to spend as much time at work as possible. Or so, its thought. I need a new perspective on being alive and well. Perhaps, its the whole thing with feeling groggy in the morning and waking up which keeps me going. Sorry, not so sorry. A casino takes up space. So does an empty parking lot. I want more out of what i got myself into. My favorite thing about myself is what keeps me good company. You must be terrifically surprised at yourself for reading this. A long list of things which i couldve done differently during college years, still, doesnt come to mind. My posts are not that of a rambling nearly 30 year old. Clear and concise content for it to be of substance and value when it comes to what one believes in. The word protege came to mind the other day. Out of how a lot of my professors in college treated me, with that nitwick and witty approach to noticing me in class. You have it all wrong about me. Catholic priests offer themselves up to God and a virgin is a virgin. Your probably scratching your head at what i could possibly be writing about. Othello was a black man who lived amongst Italians in the country of Italy. What im writing about isnt a juxtapose to things, im writing about how your manners with people could turn into mannerisms. Im also writing about how its best to avoid me in a fight unless its a sparring match. Enjoyable to view and tasty delicious with words. Thats how i know that you have an education and that your proud of it. What i got out of an education is me being formalized into my own society which i was working on, on the side. Outside of class, i wasnt called a hermit or some kind of a cult follower. Have you learned your lessons about Life, yet? I intend on keeping the phalanx running smoothly and handling things as they come. You can catch me in the hood while being up to the same old. Too many thoughts in my head. Its time to pop an adderall and relax. Even though, i might as well be a drug addict of all of the hard drugs. Its how much of a natural high i have going on in my mind, body, and soul. Soy sauce is who i encountered in middle school. He was adamant about getting everything from me at a later time and then taking it from there. The tokyo life and tokyo drift is a thing with my presence. I dont need to know these personal things about you. I wont raise these questions to you unless they start curving grades for the bar exam. I just got you, there. You think of me as a flunky with people who has nothing to say when it turns into a group thing. I beg to differ. Ive written enough about myself. Carry on, gangnam style. Psy will be on the battlefield, even more.

hello!
this shouldve been the first post i made but oh well lol!! (also long post ahead) im a new kuro blog and i just wanted to share some of my standings/opinions on certain kuro topics and certain things/characters/ships that i like and also some things i don’t like ! (also u can ask if i dont state smth u wanna know) i wanted 2 do this just so ppl know in case they rly dont or do agree w/ me on smth
these ones are shorter points then the ones later in the post
 so 2 of the most important things to state for me just to get it out of the wat, seba//ciel and other pedo/incest ships are freaking gross and dont follow me if u support them!! ciel and alois are csa survivors and its nasty that yall would ship em with adults!
i use she/her pronouns for grell bc she is a trans women!
personally i hc grell as straight but ive seen a lot of other ppl call her bi or lesbian which i also think is cute!
some of my most favs are grell, undertaker, (those 2 are my most favorite), seb, claude (ill talk a lil bit more abt them after this point), snake, william, ronald, othello, basically all the shinigami lol, bardoy, finn, lau, ash/angela, joker, doll, vincent, agni, soma, and probs a few others i cant think if rn. and i havent read a lot of the manga as of rn (but i know whats happening) so sry if i didnt list a lot of the characters that have been shown in the manga and not the anime !
im rly invested in this franchise and i love all the characters and they story is so interesting and cool, i love the theories, fanart and fanfics ppl share!!
grell is such a strong and important character and i love her!! i could write a whole essay abt her but i might save that for later :,,))
i like to think that in modern age a lot of grim reapers from the show would still be serving their sentence
and since its been shown the grim reapers are much more advanced than humans, i think that at some point othello studied trans surgeries and was able 2 give grell the sex change shes always wanted :,,) 
i personally agree with the theory that ut is o and r ciels grandfather and was someway in a relationship w/ claudia whether they were married or lovers. i like 2 think they were married even though it would make some more things confusing but i just think theyre so dang cute!! i think most ppl agree w/ this theory lol
ut just wanted his family and funky grandkids 2 be happy and everything turned to big poopoo garbage and i feel so sad for him :(( i think he got messed up even more after the manor burned down and wanted to use his doll expeiriments to try and bring back rciel (even tho thats not how u mourn but hes just that desperate) he might not be as close to the phantomhives in his backstory as i think he is but i just like to think he is lol bc i just rly like cute happy families
o!!m!!g!! i L O V E grelliam!! its such a cute ship,, grell and will fit together so well and they balance each other out so well too?? after being together for like 100 years theyre basically an old married couple and i luv them,, i could literally go on and on but this post is already super long lol,, but if anyone wants 2 talk abt them more w/ me id be more than happy to!!
b4 i get into these next few points i just wanna state that i dont rly like 2 get into kuro drama/discourse these are just simply my opinions. u can feel free 2 not read or not follow if u disagree. these are more wordy and in depth topics i wanted 2 talk abt bc i have a dumb need to over explain things lol
ive seen only a few ppl do this, but ive seen ppl that hate on seb for being horrible and abusive and like i dont rly get why? like obviously hes not the best bc hes a literal demon and just wants his soul in the end and in canon they arent friends but hes never literally abused ciel :/ bad morals and bad ppl is like one of the main themes of the show so its not supposed to be all sunshine and rainbows lol. if u rly look at it, all the characters in kuro have an unlikeable/bad quality abt them. theres barely any characters that havent dont anything wrong. not saying that ciel and all the characters are monsters tho! yana stated herself that ciel is supposed to have bad qualities. idk if any of that made sense lol its like 3 am rn
personally i like to hc that seb and ciel r like funky pals that care for eachother even just a lil bit (not in a shipping way i mean a friend/guardian way). maybe in an au lol
i like the aesthetic and characters in season 2, but imo its the worst season in the anime bc the story line and motives of the characters kinda flopped lol. even tho i know its bad, i still like it mainly cause of the characters that were introduced
i like claude, i like his aesthetic and he actually differs from seb in a lot of ways. his plan 2 achieve his motive to eat ciels soul was super dumb tho, hes a cool character but also a dumbass lol which is why ill laugh at jokes making fun of him.
but unlike seb i actually do think claude emotionally manipulated alois and killed him even tho he didnt deserve it. claude didnt “care” for alois like how seb “cares” for ciel (if that makes sense) seb actually had done a lot to protect ciel and obey his orders and the contract, but claude literally just said fu and killed him just so he could get another kids soul lmao
and once again, pedo ships are gross and horrible!!!
oof sry that was long and probably uneeded lol  but those were just sum things i wanted 2 share! also i didnt proofread all of this so sry if theres mistakes, i might add to this in the future as well
