I was at the gym today and a lady gave me some advice on my form and followed it up with, we all gotta start somewhere.

I've been going to the gym for a year and a half.

imagine being a beatles fan during their actual careers. going from this to that in the span of only three years must've been batshit to witness.

I've been watching a lot of videos about "decentralizing" your phone lately and the weirdest point I've seen made is "wear a watch instead of checking the time on your phone"... girl, wearing a watch is not some new groundbreaking act of digital nomadism. you're just weird.

mind you this is from someone who's worn a watch nearly every day for the last ten years

If the secret history was set in 2025 Camilla would be a she/they lesbian, Donna Tartt herself told me so

I'd like to raise you this little tidbit from when Bunny found Henry's diary in Rome:

"We had killed that fellow, he said, killed him in cold blood and didn’t even bother to tell him about it, but he knew there was something fishy all along, and where did I get off calling him Rabbit..."

If he went by Bunny everywhere and was called that by everyone, why would being called "Rabbit" offend him?

On the topic of Richard being a liar, how common do we think Bunny’s nickname was actually used?

Because we know that Richard himself goes by his middle name to make him sound less ordinary. Bunny seems to call other people nicknames, and is never portrayed as feeling negative about his own. But he still introduces himself to Richard as Edmund. Julian almost exclusively refers to him as Edmund. It seems to be a well-known nickname, something that sticks in people’s heads easier than a real name, but I can’t imagine everyone at school and home was comfortable calling him that.

What if Richard is playing up the nickname as the narrator to make Bunny’s name a self-fulfilling prophecy? He’s someone that’s weak, scared, emotional.

He’s Prey. He was always going to be hunted.

Incredibly hilarious to me when I see people quote things from TSH and attribute them to Donna Tartt. It is true, she wrote those words, but it just gets me when I see some crazy shit one of the members said presented in that way. Like: ‘’I prefer to think of it as redistribution of matter.’ -Donna Tartt’

Listen, if my friend took a quart of ice cream out of my freezer to eat, but he couldn’t bother to get a bowl of it, so he just had an entire quart, and then fell asleep and it melted all over my chair and a nice little Oriental rug that came back from the dry cleaners in shreds. I too would push him off a cliff, just saying
