Block, you disgust me

Very cool to look up FW Bains mid-chapter, learn he was a fraud and then go on to discover the whole chapter is about fraud

The lead up to my morning poo always makes me Feel like I had poison for breakfast

Promise I’ll finish Freud soon 🤭

Falcon street sounds so rockin

Heilner my beloved… also you’re not slick HERMANN Hesse, expelled from Maulbronn, including a character names HERMANN Heliner who is expelled from Maulbronn…

Hess-uh (pronounced as my German-adjacent grandmother has corrected) got jokes!

Thank you for the loaner Carson!

5 pages in and we’re already cooking with gas, my brotha is shooting from half court and sinking every one

I can’t stop saying sem-EYE-ko-lawn!

P. 410 has one of the craziest anecdotes. Freud says that dreams of landscapes accompanied by déjà vu represent the mother’s vagina since that’s the only place we’ve all “been before.” Once guy tells him he’s been in the landscape twice before and reveals that when he was 6, “he had been sharing his mother’s bed… inserting his finger into her genitals while she was asleep.” 🤢🤢🤢

My brain has been total mush for like 3 days now :/

I think this might be required reading for anyone that wants to be human… I dunno gotta finish I guess

Reading the interpretation of his dream about Irma is so gripping it’s crazy

Really fascinating and readable, don’t know why it’s taking me so long to muddle through

Keeping a dream journal while reading this is so fun

Man oh man does a white boy like me love a character study

10 pages + the extra chapter from Ecce Homo left, feeling equal parts enlightened and insane

Hit a major blockage in section 8 of essay 3 but I think I’ve cleared it… hopefully

The beast is slain.

My toil is almost over

Hannah Grace writes, in her book that very clearly relies on the enemies-to-lovers trope, “Going from frenemies to lovers in three months wasn’t something I ever thought would happen.”

At this point just call your audience stupid, squealing HOGS if you think they need to be EXPLAINED THE TROPE THAT THEY BOUGHT THE BOOK FOR IN THE FIRST PLACE!!!!!

In the midst of the most dramatic plot beat yet there are not one but TWO sexual interludes, both totally unrelated. Fuck it, I take it all back, I was unfamiliar with your game Ms. Grace.

It’s over. I’ve already depicted you as a hater of the first order, a devotee to slave-morality, and myself as free and godless, possessor of master-morality. It’s so over for you.

For all the performative, saccharine gestures toward “social justice” and instagram-ideals of a “non-toxic” relationship, this is one of the most misogynistic books I’ve ever read. In my Professional Male Feminist opinion

Almost exactly midway and it seems the book has just completed its rising action. So much fluff and filler it’s crazy

If I die in the next few days there’s a harrowing possibility this will be the last book I ever read

Finally finished essay one. It’s not super difficult reading not mind-numbing but I keep dozing off for some reason!
