Please please please I know we all love Friends and Chandler was our favourite character and Matthew always put a smile on our faces and that’s all amazing but can we please please please talk about this:

“I've had a lot of ups and downs in my life. I'm still working through it personally, but the best thing about me is that if an alcoholic or drug addict comes up to me and says, 'Will you help me?' I will always say, 'Yes, I know how to do that. I will do that for you, even if I can't always do it for myself! So I do that, whenever I can. In groups, or one on one.

And I created the Perry House in Malibu, a sober-living facility for men. I also wrote my play The End of Longing, which is a personal message to the world, an exaggerated form of me as a drunk. I had something important to say to people like me, and to people who love people like me.

When I die, I know people will talk about Friends, Friends, Friends. And I'm glad of that, happy l've done some solid work as an actor, as well as given people multiple chances to make fun of my struggles on the world wide web...

but when I die, as far as my so-called accomplishments go, it would be nice if Friends were listed far behind the things I did to try to help other people.

I know it won't happen, but it would be nice.”

🍁✨🎃Welcome to 13 Days of Halloween!! 🎃✨🍁

Ok. So. I maaaaay have made a bet with my friends that I could finish this pile by the end of the month with absolutely NO DNF’ing so .,,,,we’ll see how this specific TBR pile goes, but I’m honestly really excited!!! I used to avoid Horror books, but the more I explore the genre, the more I really appreciate it! (Junji Ito (my beloved) is definitely to blame for this.)

Regardless of the time crunch, I think I’m doing alright with it: I finished Her Body and Other Parties last night and I’m gonna try to post a review of that soon, but now I’m tackling Dowry of Blood. I’ve heard a lot of hype about it, so I’m really excited and maybe a little nervous, but I’ll keep you guys updated!!

one of the spookiest things I’ve read in awhile

i had a dream about fucking… vampire discourse on tumblr like;

“reminder that blood sucker is a slur”

“vamp-born-vamps are valid if u got bitten later in life you’re not part of the vamp community” 

“support vamps who drink human blood, support vamps who drink animal blood, support vamps who drink animal and human blood”

“half bloods who are human presenting don’t belong in the community”

fantasy tumblr would be fucking insufferable

god can you even imagine

“If you only have two legs you’re human-passing and don’t belong in the fantasy community”

“What about satyrs?’

“You can wear shoes”

“Just a reminder that if you appropriate mermaid culture you’re a piece of shit”

“Actually we don’t mind because a lot of our culture comes from humans”

“Shapeshifters aren’t valid because they can be human if they want”

Oh my god it gets worse and worse

Listen Sweaty :) :) :) Bigfoots and Jersey Devils aren’t REAL mythfolk :) :) You r just confuused humans :)))

Why the FUCK did no one tag me in this

Werewolves are still werewolves no matter what form they’re in. We don’t stop being werewolves when we’re in human form, we don’t stop being werewolves when we’re in wolf form. Stop werewolf erasure!

Listen, I’ve been in a committed relationship with a selkie for over ten years.  I can tell you that whole hiding-the-pelt-thing is total bullshit.  If he wanted to leave he could, I am not holding him hostage.  Please, stop spreading this hurtful misinformation.

friendly reminder that telling a fairy you don’t believe in them will not actually kill them but is a genuinely shitty thing to do and you should probably stop :)

If you’re giving a house elf a piece of clothing to free them (and you must, because remember, slavery is WRONG), at least let it be something decent, socks are overdone and not very helpful at all!

Um :cccc dressing as a demon for Halloween is culture appropriation. You don’t know what it’s like to be a demon every day, I can’t just take my skin off at the end of the day.

Y'all need to listen to Monstrous Agonies. The werewolf boyfriend discourse is real.

@monstrousagonies

smdh this person up here saying you shldnt tell fae folk they don’t exist but casually calling them the f-slur. not everyone has reclaimed that, dude!!!! you cant just throw that around!!

‘Life is like the big wheel at Luna Park. … They are all trying to sit in the wheel, and they keep getting flung off, and that makes them laugh too. It’s great fun.’ -Evelyn Waugh, Decline and Fall

‘Sometimes, I feel the past and the future pressing so hard on either side that there’s no room for the present at all.’ -Evelyn Waugh, Brideshead Revisited

‘A whole Gothic world had come to grief…there was now no armour glittering through the forest glades, no embroidered feet on the green sward; the cream and dappled unicorns had fled…’ -Evelyn Waugh, A Handful of Dust

JOMP BPC - October 30th - Read in October

an incomplete collection of what I read this month (because I read a lot of books from the library that I don’t have copies of yet lol) but it’s been so good to finally have a good reading month 🥰

and we’ll see these numbers completely evaporate when NaNoWriMo starts in a couple of days 🤭

went from strictly reading one book after the other to reading four at the same time and damn what a game changer! you mean to tell me that it would have been an option to switch to a different book when I don’t really feel the vibe that moment all along? what a concept.

On Sunday I got a copy of the Silent Patient from Shakespeare & Co. Despite it being incredibly touristic I actually really love coming here! People rarely spend a lot of time upstairs, so it’s always so nice to use the reading spaces to go through a quick poetry book or to do some journaling :-)

A few new books added to my collection 📚 Homer’s Odyssey, in a recent translation by Emily Wilson, which I’m looking forward to reading; new-to-me-authors I am collecting Clarice Lispector and László Krasznahorkai; new releases from my beloved Charco Press🖤

went to a bookstore, came home with a book, absolutely no one was surprised.
