something about how it hurts to finish a real good book in four days and wanting to tell my boyfriend about it and remembering he left me tuesday and then getting depresso

i feel like a walking corpse.

my february was spent doing an excavation report and recovering from a nasty flu, so i soon realized i only had a few silly weeks to do a 15 page seminar paper before my presentation date early april. for the past two weeks i have done nothing but constant research, searching for academic papers to help me write my paper, writing notes, and writing the actual paper itself. on top of that i go to work and struggle with my worsening mental health.

anyway, a week to go and i already have 9.5 pages on minoan religion and seals with 4 pages worth of references. my computer might blow up under the strain of the copious amount of pdfs i keep downloading like an academic hoarder goblin. i’m so tired i walk into walls and at night i keep dreaming of everything that stresses me out. i don’t have time or energy for human relationships and mainly communicate in grunts or groans. the worst thing is that somehow i am the future of academics? we’re fucked babes.

i don’t really get most sports but wrestling is fucking great. just a bunch of jacked theater kids beating the shit out of each other in cunty little outfits. i don’t care if it’s fake. all sports should be fake if this is what fake gets you

i pretty much cannot overstate how little interest i have in "the ~REAL~ geography" of any epic. "ooh the island of aeaea is REALLY meant to be--" no it's meant to be aeaea, idiot. it says so right there

i have this old cocoa tin from the 80s on my bookshelf, and for the past year i have kept it as my book fund.

for each page i read, or listen, i add one cent. i tally up each month and add enough money for all the books i have gone through.

now as the end of the year is looming ahead of me, i will take this money from the old tin and use it to treat myself, use it for new books, in a massive (to me) online order on december 31st.

there’s currently 235 euros in my old cocoa tin. i haven’t added december in it quite yet. that’s 66 books, around 23,500 pages.

i can’t wait to do this again next year.

the fact that Spielbergs original Jurassic Park (the one based off Crichtons novel) is absolutely perfect in every single way with iconic characters and stellar writing plus with the masterful directing that conveys the sheer tension and suspense of jurassic park…….to then see the jurassic world sequels with their dinosaur helicopter clone human genetics or whatever the fuck is going on with Cool Guy chris pratt doing Cool Guy Action Things that just absolutely sucks the life and joy out of the entire universe is a crime against cinema and every time i think about it…..electric chair

there should be a sub genre of books that were originally written to comment on the evils of capitalism and how greed and wealth corrupts society as a whole and how those popular books were subsequently made into hollywood movies and were marketed in a way in order to mass produce as much merchandise as possible so the companies behind the movies can make as much money as possible and thus completely erasing the original meaning of that story while also unintentionally proving the point of the original novels themes
