I Have Been Learning Russian For Two And A Half Months ("I Wanna Read Dostoyevsky In The Original" -

I was walking down the main street of my town when I came by my favourite vintage book shop - it was closed, but they have a little free section outside of the shop (it's just books lying on the pavement...) And I found THIS. I am feeling blessed.

(added the Prada perfume as an ironic little detail, and it's even more ironic that the fragrance is awful.)

Idk I think Job's wife really went off when she told him to curse God and die. It's interesting how there's no oxygen for her suffering in the narrative. She lost her children too. She lost her home too. Her health was taken from her too. Everything she had was stripped away by God. And yet there's no compassion for her. Not in the narrative nor in the commentaries or the sermons. She isn't even named.

Her : MAY I PLEASE INFODUMP ON ALBERT CAMUS TO YOU

Stay yourself, stay curious

A girl I don't like just posted that she found a perfectly preserved vintage copy of crime and punishment in a second hand book shop.

I am livid and about to commit petty theft.

Niche but Irina from "three sisters" by Anton Chekhov???

I just wanted to come on up here and explain that I am in fact still on Tumblr, just really busy these days.

Enjoy my favorite Gravity Falls artist.

Stay yourself, stay curious.

Sorry for spamming your notifications in the last like 20 mins— absolutely love your art and am eating it up yes. 💖 Also could I request either more Bill and freak (maybe something to do with more hands cuz OUGGHH so good) or angsty Fiddauthor like Ford trying not to cry as he’s making himself watch Fidds get married to Emma-May? 👀 Maybe even at the reception after when they’re dancing and Ford’s getting drunk af and clearly emotional/lashing out in frustration. If not it’s perfectly okay and tysm for even reading. Have a good day/night! <3

ILYSM Thank you <3 these are all such good ideas I'm drawing all of them

Some wedding night shenanigans for now

My mother stating she'll have me date anyone BUT a cop is a major factor in why she is, and I'm saying this after great research, the best.

An Introduction

Hello, this is sort of a basic introduction of me, and what this blog will upload. Obviously I will branch out further with time, as I change as a person, yet currently I would like to grab the right blogger's attention -

I am pearl, I am a very curious academic person and always open to learning new things. I want to start uploading on Tumblr to discuss my Interests with like minded people - I don't have many friends in my day to day life, and even fewer that I share my academic Interests with, so I'd be thrilled for people to interact with my blog.

She / Her | Queer | Marxist | Academic

Interests;

Literature; More specifically, Classics and Gothic. I find stories that examine the human condition to be very interesting! If you have suggestions for novels, I encourage you to leave me some.

Art; I sketch almost daily. I love the romantic period and Oil paintings in general..

Tv; I like philosophical movies and ones about girlhood. Also dark academia.

Favorites;

Artist; Lana del Rey

Novel; The Secret History

Movie; Heathers (1989)

I intend to upload my daily observations, opinions of Novels and other media, Communist content, and thoughts about my Academic interests - Classical literature and the Torah. This'll be my corner and if you'd like, you're welcome to stay.

Stay yourself, stay curious

I watched ''Black swan" with a friend today and was pleasantly surprised. Most of the 'girlblogger' films I watch are either mild in their social critique or rely too heavily on shock factor, but Aronofsky's film is harsh and relatable. One thing I enjoyed immensely was the cinematography.

If anyone could share their thoughts on the film I'd appreciate it very much! I intend on writing an analysis in the next few days.

Stay yourself, stay curious.
