The poets reactions to the ‘phone call from God’ makes me wanna believe that Charlie had told them about pulling off this stunt prior and their faces are just them realising that their attempts at convincing him it was a stupid idea were all in vain

"We don't read and write poetry because it's cute. We read and write poetry because we are members of the human race. And the human race is filled with passion. And medicine, law, business, engineering, these are noble pursuits and necessary to sustain life. But poetry, beauty, romance, love, these are what we stay alive for. To quote from Whitman, "O me! O life!... of the questions of these recurring; of the endless trains of the faithless... of cities filled with the foolish; what good amid these, O me, O life?" Answer. That you are here - that life exists, and identity; that the powerful play goes on and you may contribute a verse. That the powerful play *goes on* and you may contribute a verse. What will your verse be?"
-John Keating; Dead Poets Society

Forever thinking about the scene in Dead Poets Society where Meeks and Pitts are on the roof and they’re dancing together except Pitts has headphones on and Meeks doesn’t- Meeks is just dancing with him happily even with no music and they’re just perfect

My favourite thing about Dead Poets fans is that nothing is canon. There is no reason to believe Todd had a Christmas gift for Neil. We made that shit up for the simple reason of making each other cry. And I respect that.

The Simon Snow trilogy is so good AS LONG AS you approach it with the knowledge that it’s MEANT to be stereotypical and borderline satirical and to represent YA fantasy the way it’s written in fanfic?
Like the story reads as a fanfiction: you’re thrown into the middle of the series with the narrator acting as if you already know the characters and the interactions they’ve had in the past and the lore + world building. The first book, Carry On, follows a very predictable and stereotypical formula. It’s MEANT to be every cliché that YA fantasy is. But then with the second and third book, the author takes it as an opportunity to explore everything that the genre isn’t. “What happens when the Chosen One’s story is over?”
What happens now that the Chosen One has killed the Big Bad Guy? Now that he’s traumatized, and depressed, and an alcoholic to cope? Now that he has to deal with losing that sense of purpose, now that he’s no longer everything he was groomed to be since he was 12? Well, he goes on a crack-taken-seriously type road-trip across the American west, apparently.
And Wayward Son and Any Way the Wind Blows perfectly fill that empty niche left by most published series- by giving up on the big, dramatic fantasy fight plot, and instead exploring the characters that the story created. Their romantic problems, their sexual identities, their home life. Divorced parents, trying to pay rent, just overall filling in that domestic void that’s left in many books, a void that most series rely on fanfiction to fill.
Idk, I guess what I’m saying is that the latter two books read as fanfiction for the first, with the intimate and domestic way they explore the characters, and I’m here for it.

What's happening in Turkey is absolutely devastating, I've been looking for ways to help and came across AHBAP, it's a very reliable foundation that helps people that were affected.
If you're able to help this is possibly the best way, or simply share so it can reach more people.

Please help if you can.
