this is how you lose the time war

an epistolary novel that's a time traveling love story space opera. i love epistolary novels and i remember finishing this one and needing to sit down with all my emotions for a bit. it's my favorite book. here's a quote from it that i love: "will you go still or turn sharply when you know i'm watching you? will you see me? imagine me waving, in case you don't, i'll be too far off for you to see my mouth."

dictionary of obscure sorrows

don’t know if everyone has heard of this and it’s very old news and i should be ashamed. but i found it about ten years ago, and it still my heart. it’s just an anthology of niche emotional experiences from this artist who grew up in switzerland. he collected his made-up terms into a dictionary and published it. it sparked the deepest sense of fancifulness in my preteen heart. i’ve carried certain terms with me to this day, and often return to peruse the words i love so much. one of my proudest moments was, after sharing it with a friend, sending him some of my own inspired by it. he thought they were real words and definitions from it, and i was Very pleased. it’s just fun and cool and neat. be careful to not be in a very longing mood when you go through it.

diary of a philosophy student vol. 1 by simone de beauvoir

truly felt like reading my own journals from when I was 18, 19, but infinitely more discerning and eloquent! “O my self, I will be sincere, sincere to you, completely sincere.” “I will suffer; that is all. I will be strong enough.” “I take back everything; I give up all faithfulness … I would like to live! I am going to live ... I am giving myself up; I am letting everything collapse, and I will start over again with something else. I am no longer paying attention to moral values; I am no longer seeking to do something. I want to be, to be. My beloved self, on an evening of exaltation, I promised you I would love you well.”

THE FLEA MARKET

fun trinkets and insanely cheap groceries. also a lot of trump swag. crazy ass people to talk to. there’s a guy there with a booth full of elvis stuff. he just loves the guy. on his wall he has a framed photo of him photoshopped next to young elvis that says ‘PRICELESS!’
