“I Want To Fill My Mouth With Your Name.”

My theory about why we so enthusiastically celebrate the Ides of March here on this tumblr dot com is thus:

This site is full of literary and history nerds.

This site loves to be morbid as fuck.

This site is full of people who are very displeased with current politics and would like to achieve a certain catharsis.

That last one I think is the most important, because I remember the days when celebrating the stabbing of Caesar was just nerd shit, but it picked up more and more steam over the years, and I noticed a sudden massive boom in enthusiasm beginning in 2021, undoubtedly on account of the everything that has happened in the past few years.

I just finished reading All Quiet on the Western Front and I have so many thoughts and feelings, I don't know where to put them, what to do with them, how to deal with them.

*pats your back* it's OK, sis, it's OK. We'll just change our phone wallpapers to pretty skies, change the layout and then we'll gently purge our phones outside the windows and start using it for less than 2 hours a day, we'll also eat more fruits and soups, touch the wall, then the floor,the carpet and the door and before we know it, we'll reach the grass and plants waiting for us all this time,and then we'll look at the sky, look at it some more and fall asleep, we'll then take a nice refreshing bath, wash our hair and sit on our desk, smile and then take our books to sit on the floor, and sis, that's when magic happens because you don't need more, you need less. You don't need plans, you need space, to be, content without those mfs.

The fact that all of the foreign Captive Prince editions have literally the prettiest covers and we’re stuck with this basic shit annoys me to no end

English:

Japanese: (they have ILLUSTRATIONS. Do you understand???😭😭😭 gonna go learn Japanese)

Taiwanese:

Polish: I—This is everything. Like, everything.

(The first cover is literally one of the best arts of Capri I’ve ever seen)

Dear Berkley books,

This is a crime, one i will not stand for. So,

TAKE MY FUCKING MONEY AND GIVE ME CAPTIVE PRINCE, ILLUSTRATED, WITH THESE COVERS

Even when you're tired, remember why you started.
