Alfie just linked me to this review of the DSM IV that is written as if it is a dystopian novel and it is the best thing I've ever read in my life
Excerpt: 'This mad project is clearly something that its authors are fixated on to a somewhat unreasonable extent. In a retrospectively predictable ironic twist, this precise tendency is outlined in the book itself. The entry for obsessive-compulsive disorder with poor insight describes this taxonomical obsession in deadpan tones: “repetitive behavior, the goal of which is […] to prevent some dreaded event or situation." Our narrator seems to believe that by compiling an exhaustive list of everything that might go askew in the human mind, this wrong state might somehow be overcome or averted. [...] A mad person is like a faulty machine. The pseudo-objective gaze only sees what they do, rather than what they think or how they feel. A person who shits on the kitchen floor because it gives them erotic pleasure and a person who shits on the kitchen floor to ward off the demons living in the cupboard are both shunted into the diagnostic category of encopresis. It’s not just that their thought-process don’t matter, it’s as if they don’t exist. The human being is a web of flesh spun over a void."
GET THEIR (THE AMERICAN PYSCHIATRIC ASSOCIATION'S) ASS!!!!!!!!
a concept: fuck marry kill for aroaces: kill kill kill, where you start off with three people but instead of choosing to marry one and sleep with another, they all die but you get to choose how. the challenge is to come up with increasingly fucked up ways to kill them.
since it’s now canon silver was originally blonde, do you think maybe he would have blonde hair in potion!au?
THE WORLD OF POSSIBILITIES THIS OPENS.....the horrible notion of andrei trying to remove lilia's blessing on silver to have his hair return to its original golden color....
we already know andrei's days are numbered from all the suffering he's caused but I like to think this shortens his time in this au even further when lilia sees his blessing, his claim, so callously removed from his son in such a blatant assault upon their bond together.....oh, his rage will rival the lightning fury of the late princess herself
