so the gold eyes make me think it’s gideon but the sword thing is literally NOT gideon at all it’s reminiscent of harrow but nona can’t do bones like harrow so that means it’s someone else i’m thinking it HAS to be alecto because the language thing is something we haven’t seen before and it would make sense since we haven’t met alecto either. that we know of …

[Image description: Riz Gukgak, a teenage goblin boy, sits sideways in a yellow barrel chair with one leg thrown over the arm of the chair. He has unkempt, curly hair and both arms are covered in random tattoos about the Nightmare King. He’s reading a book and wears a black t-shirt, gray sweatpants, a mismatched pair of socks (one purple and one with the aromantic flag pattern) and wears half of a best friends necklace. His hands are covered in scars. The outline of a circle is behind his head, reminiscent of a stylized halo. The artist’s signature LightningIdle is under the chair. /end id]
y'all executive dysfunction sucks ass.
THE ENTIRE DAY, all that's been going on in my head is a series of things that i reallyreallyreally want to do but i just c a n t.
i wanna read ? nah not allowed to, stuck compulsively scrolling through youtube shorts
i wanna write ? i have tons of motivation for writing ? so many ideas ??? all i need to do is walk a couple steps n pick up pen and paper and sit down but NO, i must play this game even though the prospect of writing is so much more appealing at this very moment
ITS SO FUCKING STUPID
and the fact that executive dysfunction occurs so frequently and not just for things that sound so boring or tedious or anxiety inducing and make my brain want to melt and my eyes gloss over BUT ALSO FOR THINGS I really WANT TO DO I JUST

Serbian Folk Religion in 100 Terms // Narodna Religija Srba u 100 Pojmova (1991) - Dušan Bandić
"Dr. Dušan Bandić (1938-2004) was a professor of ethnology at the Faculty of Philosophy in Belgrade and for a time the head of the Department of National Ethnology and Anthropology.''
- in my attempt to make more sources on ex-yu culture accessible, i've begun to scan and share some of the good material i've read! due to some expressed interest, here is a segment on vampires and watermills (which are connected to vampires)!
- for folks who can read serbo-croatian and cyrillic, you can read the direct scans from the book here and for those of you who can't, i've translated the pages into english myself and you can read them here. hope some of you enjoy reading about vampires before they were sexy! if you are interested in reading any of the other segments, you can find a table of contents here and let me know which you'd like to see first.
(note: while im fluent in english and put a lot of effort into these translations, i'm by no means a professional translator. my primary focus was that the facts were translated correctly and relayed what people believed)
i think something that will forever linger in my brain about the newsies novel (which everyone should read! its so good and is available online !) is this part
there are So many other moments (him saying hes seen guys bigger than crutchie not make it out of the refuge, “you touch davey and ill-“ , jack basically saying going back to the refuge will kill him , jack sits around and talks about his day with all the boys, medda saying she sings to jack in his box , jacks family picture, jacks father canonically being a dilf ,the picture getting ripped up, etc etc) but that description . that being the way santa fe wouldve gone for him realistically . will Always ruin me.
