Is she Lucy Westenra, or is she just a vessel for the writer's barely disguised fantasy of a women being punished for her promiscuity? Is she really"Bram Stoker's" Lucy Westenra: a naive, innocent 19 year old, with a cheery personality and a bright future ahead of her? Or has the writer instead just slapped her name on an OC that behaves nothing like her, and- with none of the grace or decorum that Lucy's tragically short story deserves- sexualized her slow and agonising death as much as possible, whilst very unsubtly doing their best to blame her for being murdered, so that we won't object to her being killed again later in an even more gruesome and sexual manner?
#every dracula adaptation gets every character wrong- but the way Lucy is treated in particular makes my blood boil#she's not stupid for being naive. she's not stupid for fixating on marriage. she's 19. A TEENAGER. she's allowed to be young#of course she doesn't have much life experience! that's why it's so tragic! when she dies we mourn the person she was meant to become#and regardless of however adaptations try to spin it; she did not want to be killed. she wasn't aware of dracula like the other characters#she didn't deliberately let dracula kill her. she didn't ask to be a vampire. she wasn't in love with dracula or anything like that#she died not understanding what was happening to her. she never lost her naivety. and that makes it even more tragic in my opinion#anyway thanks for coming to my ted talk#i think my old dracula hyperfixation is reigniting and i don't have the strength to stop it lmao#lucy westenra#dracula#bram stokers dracula#dracula daily#lit student screams into the void

Shen Yuan getting transported into pidw isn't "the system punishing him for being a lazy internet hater," but instead representative of "step 1 of the creative process: getting so mad at something you decide to go write your own fucking book" in this essay I will
#svsss#scum villian self saving system#shen qingqiu#shen yuan#the fact that people think scum villain#-a series that examines and criticizes common tropes in fiction-#is somehow against criticism or being a little hater is wild to me#especially since shen qingqiu never gets punished for being a hater#heck- he's still a little hater by the end of the series#he mostly gets punished for treating life like a play and like he and the people around him are characters#(or in other words- he suffers for denying his own wants and emotions and his own sense of empathy)#I think some of y'all underestimate how much writing/art is inspired by creaters being little haters#like example off the top of my head-#the author of Iron Widow has been pretty vocal about the book being inspired by their hatred of Darling in the Franxx#I think my interpretation of Shen Yuan's transmigration is also supported by the fact that this series is an examines writing processes#side note- though i understand why people say Shen Yuan is lazy and think its a valid take it still doesnt sit right with me#i am probably biased because my own experiences with chronic pain and depression and isolation#but ya- i dont think Shen Yuan is lazy so much as he is deeply lonely and feels purposeless after denying parts of himself for 20ish years#like yall remember the online fandom boom from covid right?#being stuck completely alone in bed while feeling like shit for 20 days straight does shit to your brain#the fact that no one came to check on him + he wasn't exactly upset about leaving anyone behind supports the isolation interpretation too#+in the skinner demon arc he describes his life of being a faker/inability to stop being a faker now that he's Shen Qingqiu#as “so bland he's tempted to throw salt on himself” and “all he could do is lay around and wait for death” (<-paraphrasing)#bro wants to be doing stuff but is stuck in paralysis from repeatedly following scrips made by other people#another point on “Shen Yuan isn’t lazy” is just the sheer amount of studying that man does#also he did graduate college- how lazy can he really be#he doesnt know what hes doing but he at least tries to actively train his students#and he actually works on improving his own cultivation + spends quite a bit of time preping the mushroom body thing#+he's experiencing bouts of debilitating chronic pain throughout all this#but ya tldr: Shen Yuan's transmigration is an encouragement to write and not a punishment and also i dont think its fair to call him lazy

I'm feeling a lot better!! I've accepted that I'm an intern who is allowed to be a idiot/do random shit for absolutely no reason. I just show up in the lab, turn the lab into a club for a few hours, and then walk around the city with a beverage (or cookie?) in my hand. My purpose was to have fun, not find the cure for cancer.


#tracking my mood swings in real time... damn#and by club i mean listen to 2000s pop or rock really loud while doing my experiments#usually there is no one else but some kids were touring the lab when i was blasting the strokes#eternal summer my love#studyblr#medical studyblr#realistic studyblr#studyblr community#student life#study motivation#study inspiration#study blog#studying#stemblr#stem academia#study space#study with me#research#academic#academic weapon#dark academia#light academia

#horizon zero dawn#hzd#hzd photomode#hzd remaster#the green and the grey/blue/white work really well together i feel#kinda reminds me of those pics of iceland they had in that one photography book in the library#i went to the local copyshop with them#had them enlarged and printed and hung them over my bed#and then when the time came to maybe spend a year there or up in norway or sweden or finland#...i applied for and went to poland#(why you might ask? well. see i had fallen in love with this polish girl and i wanted to be closer to her--)#which is an experience i wouldn't want to miss because it was one of the best years of my life growing up#but sometimes i still wonder what could've been#well. maybe one day.#after i got rid of the looming student debt

Nobody talks about how difficult it is to be a student w/NPD!!
Hi! I’m bread, I’m a psychology student with both autism and NPD, and I don’t see a lot of traction about how these disorders play into academics, so I’ll start!:
Grandiosity, especially with an autistic’s photographic memory, makes lectures feel “worthless”. I can cover the material at home. Last year, I attended 5 lectures, and passed the year with a 76 (UK student whoop! For those who don’t use the UK grading system, it’s a pretty solid indication of a first). This DIRECTLY feeds into my delusional narrative of “I’m the most capable student here, I’m going to redefine the field of neuroscience” when in reality, I can’t be bothered to sit in a lecture.
Ignoring assignments and coursework to “protect” from an ego hit, causes bad grades, therefore ensuring an ego hit is taken. I often am paralysed by the fear of not doing fantastic work 100% of the time, mainly because this damages my fragile delusion that I have built my entire academic life on. However, this causes my work to often not be submitted, meaning obviously, my grades drop. It’s a viscous cycle.
Other students are “below me”, I haven’t been able to make any friends. When I think about the people on my course, I am absolutely certain that “none of these people have the same drive as me, none of them have the same ability or ambitions”. Automatically, I subconsciously see them as “unworthy” and “wasting my time”. This makes it super hard to make friends.
Stigma, stigma, and more stigma. Whilst autism is slowly loosing its stigma, the same cannot be said for NPD. I’m terrified to even mention how this impacts me truly, I lie to student support and word my issues to seem like they’re just autism, which means I don’t get the correct support. We don’t see a lot of NPD rep in academics (barring the stigmatising, outdated research about us), which makes it hard to even imagine having a career with NPD, let alone in the psychology and neuroscience field. Sometimes I feel like this is for nothing, and I’ll end up like the stereotype says I will.

god i want. an au where it dosn't work. where it's just arr g'raha who's woken up, and he doesn't have all these memories and all these people keep looking at him like they're mourning someone. the world has changed and time has changed and all the people he knows have changed, but he hasn't changed, he was just sleeping, just sleeping, and the world nearly ended several times and apparently he helped prevent yet another end but he has no memory of this. they want him to join the scions. he does not know these people. (he barely knows the warrior of light, now, but did he ever truly know them in the first place?) his little sister is alive and well. she looks at him like a ghost. she's changed, and she's older than him now. he acts bratty and loud and brash to cover up the fact that he does not know anything it seems, and he is tired but he was sleeping for so long, so how could he be tired?
he doesn't know these people. they seem to know him. he wonders if he'd killed someone, when it was him and not that exarch who woke up. he wonders if it should have been him who was "killed" in that way, if it is him that lives and not that man who had known and become friends with all these figures from legend. he wonders if he'll always be fated to be a historian one step back from everything, because he simply cannot be a hero.
#bound with thread | original posts#letters in verse | talking#g'raha tia#crystal exarch#hello everyone i am being Incredibly Normal about g'raha tia at -checks time- 12:02 am#you ever think about the fact that arr g'raha is basically killed/replaced when the exarch wakes up in 5.3. because i do. a lot#hi i have brainworms over this man he's SO tragic and i need to hold him gently in my hands like how you cradle a small trembling kitten#genuinely happy about his character growth and progression and happy ending and all but arr g'raha was the one who grabbed my focus#and i do miss a lot of that character sometimes yknow? post-shb g'raha isn't the same person as arr g'raha and that's intentional‚ i think‚#because he has gone through so much that we didn't see. so much trauma and pain because of the 8th umbral era and that loss he got hit with#and he's not the same person because he's *had* to change so much to keep himself and his people alive and i'm glad he's getting to#experience life to the fullest in endwalker onwards but just. i miss arr g'raha yknow#honestly the silliest thing about it is i miss his student of baldesion tattoo. was a fun little design element you know.#show us the tattoo again squeenix. give him back his red eyeshadow that he had.#give him his bow back i am begging#this has been: incomprehensible ramblings from simon at 12 at night

Autism in university
So i'm just halfway in 1st semester in university and it's quite though. I'm studing health and nutrition, which is quite interesting. So reflecting on a few things which have happen in over the first two months.
I have already blurted out i'm autistic and i felt like i scared people away. A handfull from my class already know. Looking back i wish i just kept my mouth shut.
Masking is really exhausting and when i come home i just lay in bed for hours. I barely have the energy to study.
The social font is whack! utter whack. I can't connect with my classmates at all. I have participated in a good handful of social events, because i do want to get to know them. It's hard because they have different interests than me. Very different interests. It's totally okay they have different interests than me. However it makes it hard for me to connect with them.
My diagnosis that up a lot of space in my mind. I have become more aware of my diagnosis when i'm with non-autistic people.
Don't get me wrong my classmates are nice people.. it's just me who doesn't know how to socialise.

thesis posts masterlist
Since I am collecting what I write while working on my thesis in preparation to a lecture in which I will be guested to share my thesis work experience I decided to create a themed masterlist (I don't think I did it in the past, but I also not sure about that but here it is anyway). When I was working on my thesis I was also writing a thesis diary in my daily posts to document my experience and my work. All those posts were tagged as #thesis diary so in case you are interested in seeing my day to day thoughts and process you can find them here. These entries go from the 20th of April 2022 to the 8th of November 2022 (the day I defended my thesis and officially graduated). I hope this small masterlist post can be somewhat helpful, and if you have questions my inbox is always open!
my thesis notebook
thesis writing tips #1
thesis writing tips #2
(ask) thesis chapters writing process
#i put this together mostly for myself to easily find these posts and reread them in preparation of when I'll be speaking#ngl i am very proud of myself for how i documented my experience rereading those posts is beeing super helpful#thesis posts masterlist#thesis tips#study tips#studyblr#studyinspo#uniblr#university#student life#mine#the---hermit
