But between the two, team Edward. Haven't read the books but that one scene in I think it's Eclipse? Where Jacob basically pulls a "kiss me or I'm gonna kms" where he threatens to run into battle because Bella won't return his affection... yeah, I was already a bit iffy on him at this point but this confirmed it for me. Really though, I watched these with a group of friends as a comedy, so I wasn't really on any "side" per se, I think they're all really dramatic. Bella is at most 18 during the course of the films, Jacob is even younger, and Edward is a really immature 100 year old. Even though she turned to a vampire for Edward I'm convinced IRL they would be divorced at 20.

edward was an elderly control freak who had way too much influence over TEENAGE bella. jacob thought bella's friendship meant he was entitled to a relationship with her, and then he mated with her infant daughter. they both totally suck, but imo edward is more palatable. i definitely don't find myself crushing on either of them nowadays or thinking bella should have done anything other than go to college far away and forget about both of them, but when i read the books at 11 years old my vampire obsessed ass thought a vampire boyfriend watching you sleep every night was the most romantic thing ever on earth

I love finding a secondhand book with annotations, it feels so special to see a glimpse into what someone else was thinking while reading. Even if it's surface level notes for like a class or something, it makes me feel connected to the greater whole of humanity.

I don't have any specific ones on the top of my head but when I was looking for inspo for a magazine I was making I stumbled upon the collection of Zines on Internet Archive. They have categories for punk, feminist, art, fanzines, etc and they're fun to look through. They also have a category of unsorted ones that feels like digging through a bin trying to find hidden gems.

Watch the Aquabats Supershow!! Really camp and fun, side project of a ska band (Aquabats) with one former member being Travis Barker, now drummer for Blink-182. I need to go to an Aquabats concert so bad
