Are you a bored, rich, white person who covers up your horribly empty and soulless existence with casual sex, drugs, and alcohol? Congratulations, you are a character in a Bret Easton Ellis novel.

Just read this fabulous screenplay. A remake of Camus's The Stranger with Meursault as a bi break-dancing punk rocker. Randy showed it to me. I loved it. Randy thinks it's 'basically unfilmable' and that filming an orange rolling around a parking lot for three hours would draw a bigger audience.

Bret Easton Ellis, The Informers

pls tell me you’ve read that The Informers cause i’m PRETTY sure the Timothy in one of the stories is the same AP Tim and he’s super super bi in it ahskskjdjd like he fucked around in Cali FOR SURE

WHATTT NO!! I swear Brent Easton Ellis publishes so many books with his AP characters I cant keep up omg. I looked it up and have both that and Laws of Attraction on my list of books to read.

Fuuuuck the AP extended universe is insane I feel so small thinking about it. Im actually so happy you told me Price was in there because now I get to indulge in more Canon Price LMAO

IM also currently reading Less than Zero so at the rate I'm going, I'll have all the AP lore in the back of my pocket

(Same anon) I’ve only watched the movie and never read any of the books! So what are your opinions on movie! Tim vs the books? Thanks for answering my ask btw :D

Not a problem anon! As I said, I enjoy rambling about Tim.

Okay, the main difference between movie! Tim and book!tim is one, Book! Tim represents a theme of escape that Patrick can never have as we see him literally run away from his life and return completely changed. It’s highly implied he went to rehab or a mental hospital for a time and I think the fact that scene was cut from the movie changes what he is.

Yes in the movie he still is ‘the most interesting person’ Patrick knows but when there’s this lack of contrast that exists between them you lose a lot of what makes their relationship so important.

Plus, Tim is more heavily implied to be gay in the book with in American Psycho there being references to his queerness and in another book The Infomers there’s basically a coming out scene with Tim

Hey all, you know how internet searches suck now? When the results are awful, full-of-AI, death-of-the-internet levels of bad?

Start appending date constraints to your searches - "before:2023".

My results have gone from 90% AI bullshit to ~60% usable - which frankly at this point is a huge improvement.

Greetings bugs and worms!

This comic is a little different than what I usually do but I worked real hard on it—Maybe I'll make more infographic stuff in the future this ended up being fun. Hope you learned something new :)

If you are still curious and want to learn more about OCD, you can visit the International OCD Foundation's website. I also recommend this amazing TED ED video "Starving The Monster", which was my first introduction to the disorder and this video by John Green about his own experience with OCD.

The IOCDF's website can also help you find support groups, therapy, and has lots of online guides and resources as well if you or a loved one is struggling with the disorder. It is very comprehensive!

Reblog to teach your followers about OCD

(But also not reblogging doesn't make you evil, silly goose)

not romantic not platonic but a secret third thing [what would happen between earth and the moon if the earth stopped spinning as illustrated by xkcd randall munroe]

how do conservatives think talking to children works? if a four year old came up to me and said “i’m a cat!!” i would say “really? what makes you a cat?” and they’d say some shit like “i have claws >:)” and i’d be like “oh wow, you do have claws. but wait, i thought cats had pointed ears!” and they’d say “they DO!!!” and then i’d pull up a picture of an elf and ask “is THIS a cat?” and they’d yell “NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO”

u wouldn’t say “fucking hell, Emily, get it together. this is the real world”

"A story doesn't need a theme in order to be good" I'm only saying this once but a theme isn't some secret coded message an author weaves into a piece so that your English teacher can talk about Death or Family. A theme is a summary of an idea in the work. If the story is "Susan went grocery shopping and saw a weird bird" then it might have themes like 'birds don't belong in grocery stores' or 'nature is interesting and worth paying attention to' or 'small things can be worth hearing about.' Those could be the themes of the work. It doesn't matter if the author intended them or not, because reading is collaborative and the text gets its meaning from the reader (this is what "death of the author" means).

Every work has themes in it, and not just the ones your teachers made you read in high school. Stories that are bad or clearly not intended to have deep messages still have themes. It is inherent in being a story. All stories have themes, even if those themes are shallow, because stories are sentences connected together for the purpose of expressing ideas, and ideas are all that themes are.
