rakitin and his weird (fruity) obsession over men falling into temptation needs to be studied

AND I’LL DRINK ALL ALONE IN MY ROOM

AND I’LL CRY LIKE A BABY

AND I'LL DRINK SO MUCH I'LL GET SICK

AND I'LL LIE ON THE BATHROOM FLOOR

THEN I'LL DRINK SOME MORE

First thing l thought of when l learned she had blue eyes. No wonder Alyosha was terrified

I also really appreciate how much Dostoyevsky surprised me with Grushenka as a character and her relationship with Mitya it's honestly not a romance you see too much in 19th century literature. She appears on the page with the Katya scene and I was rolling my eyes like "ok the male-written temptress character that blames the woman 100% when Mitya is also making the decision to cheat whatever" and then you keep on reading to the delirium chapter and I was like "Wait, no, this is very much framed as two fucked up people choosing to be toxic together like they are both seeking oblivion together" and by the end of the novel they still have all the flaws they had at the beginning except I believe they're trying to be better + they're trying to get better together and idk if they will but I think it's possible. They both grew a lot.

Oh NO. BBC radio drama has slandered Grushenka really bad. :(

Don't know how ppl can hate on Grushenka bc my girl was

so hot a father and son fought over her

chose her man and when he was like but I'm in debt she literally was like ok and? I'm rich enough for the both of us (QUEEN)

did i mention she was so hot that the man she chose went on a whole ass journey so that he could feel worthy of being with her
