This book is excellently written; the first-person narration and the division between the first part (an explanation of the narrator's philosophical ideas) and the second part (an account of an episode in the narrator's life that put his philosophical ideas to practice) are a great gateway to his later works.
I was so excited for my first foray into Dostoevsky’s work but this book has been quite obnoxious to read - at least thus far. I’m halfway through and it feels like he beats a dead horse with this bit about self-hypocrisy and irony. It was funny at first but it gets redundant. We’ll see how the latter half pans out!
I fucking love em dashes!!! They illustrate exactly how thoughts come into my mind. No thougth is conceived without another — smaller and adjacent — thought attached to it.
My gf got me this Canon FTQL and I‘ve been practicing taking pictures on 35mm film! Don’t know how it’s gonna turn out but I’m excited just to practice taking the pics and learning about photography!!
Hayley Williams’ quarantine project is a blessing to us all. The album is beautiful and completely homemade, which makes it even more incredible. Production is great, her voice is amazing, and it’s — almost — a one-woman show (she had people help her with some parts but still…)
