The German language has such a inherent negativity/ aversion to positivity that drains the life out of me.

Its so much more common to go "this thing isn't bad" or "this thing doesn't suck" than it is to go "hey this is good". And it makes everything feel so useless

actually we should start headcanoning female characters as being terrible with children

Queer Fiction Free-for-All Book Bracket Tournament: Round 4

Book summaries below:

The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde

'How sad it is! I shall grow old, and horrible, and dreadful. But this picture will remain always young… If it were only the other way!'

Wilde's first and only published novel recounts the story of handsome Dorian Gray who upon having his portrait painted desires that it will age and grow ugly while he may remain eternally beautiful. The painting, which reflects each of Gray's sins and transgressions, haunts him until it finally becomes unbearable. In this dark tale of duplicity and mortality, Wilde creates a world where art and reality collide.

This Is How You Lose the Time War by Amal El-Mohtar and Max Gladstone

Among the ashes of a dying world, an agent of the Commandant finds a letter. It reads: Burn before reading. Thus begins an unlikely correspondence between two rival agents hellbent on securing the best possible future for their warring factions. Now, what began as a taunt, a battlefield boast, grows into something more. Something epic. Something romantic. Something that could change the past and the future.

Except the discovery of their bond would mean death for each of them. There's still a war going on, after all. And someone has to win that war.

I feel we, as a society, moved past this one a little too quickly

I would have fought you forever. I would have wrestled you through time.

I would have turned you, and been turned.
