“Even if it is occasionally hard, I like looking people in the face and defending my true perceptions of the world around me. I’m trying to belong to myself; for everything else constantly betrays me. Reality is not a dimension I often choose but truth is a whole other case. I think what counts is inner courage, and what matters, most of all, is a sense of being whoever you wish to be and having as less regrets as possible.”
— Juliette Binoche

Twitter users are defending their right to assume Picasso was a renaissance artist. Tiktok users think watching any film made outside the US makes you a snob. “Replace classic lit with YA and fan fiction” discourse is flourishing. I think we’re just living in anti intellectual times.

i think we spend sm time joking about how Lestat describes himself and his outfits super vainly that we forget that he also dedicates an unusual amount of time to picking apart his highly specific vaguely weird insecurities. Like ok lestat we get it ur mouth is a little too big for ur face and ur nose is too small for ur mouth and ur feet r off-puttingly small and petite for a 6 ft man and ur skin looks like porcelain in a creepy way and ur forever hard statue like dick makes u look inhuman don't worry we still love u

I love the word "partner"
Are we married? Are we dating? Are we running a small business together? Are we in the middle of an elaborate plan to kill an ancient godlike being?
You'll never know

Bona fide Loustat from the Tulane University Special Collections.
(Anne Rice journals)
They're in a crypt the candle burning down. Louis paralyzed with sleep, Lestat awake. Lestat comes over to the shelf + sits beside Louis, leans over - holding Louis in arms. Louis groggy, powerless - and L bites his tongue, lets the blood spill into Louis' moth - and for the first time in over 200 years his mind opened to me. I felt terror. I would pierce the undisguised heat of his hatred but a great rosy light surrounded us and in a moment I held him in a grip so close that nothing came between us, and I felt his wordless love flowing into me as surely as my love flowed into him ` prayers, whispers, souls blending with a great absolute and unyielding power for some particle of human understanding + then a turning from the desperate seeking of the divine to me, to me, to my heart, and then as if we knelt together on the damp stone cold floor of a church he turned and pressed his forehead against my face and whispered 'Brother, lover!'
Let me forgive you for not being God! Forgive me for ever demanding that you be what you cannot be + never was!
