of course the barrel of the bastard needs no introduction. @norths is off the grid! kazbrkker is in the house.
not tagging any mutuals cause it’s been long since I’m active but feel free to boost 🖤 I’ve missed everyone btw:(

Sending love to everyone who is just... tired. Life is a lot, and sometimes the answer to it all is to just be still and silent for a while. Give yourself space and grace. Whether it’s decision fatigue, anxiety fatigue, information fatigue, routine fatigue, getting life back together fatigue, career fatigue, social fatigue, financial fatigue, or physical fatigue—take a moment to breathe and recharge. You deserve it.

Was chatting with some friends about Caleb's moment where he gives MC the cold medicine and she over sleeps.

A lot of people seem to think he drugged her while others argue he literally just gave her cold medicine because she was sick.

However, I think focusing on the medicine and its effects is the wrong way to look at this scene and not what the writer wants to convey. That's why they left it ambiguous.

In my interpretation, their point anyway you slice it he's overprotective and wants to keep MC away from danger.

If he just gave her cold medicine, he, being someone from her childhood, would know how she reacts to it and would know it would make her oversleep, or if he did lace it he did with the motivation to keep her away from danger and give her body a chance to rest like he knew she wouldn't allow her body to do (MC would have left even with a fever to go do what she wanted)

No matter which one you ascribe to Caleb's motivation is always protecting MC, even from herself.

Of course, as you read on, you see that not only does MC match his freak in this but also in the desire to protect and she also helps him find his footing with her again.

One of the beautiful things about these LIs is that NONE of them are perfect and they all start out with some sort of rocky or dubious relationship with the MC. Then overtime, the mutual respect grows, changes are made, characters develop and they realize their error and work to make up for it.

It makes the characters so much more interesting & the stories so compelling! The biggest sin in my mind a character can make is to be boring so the fact that the writers for these LIs make them so nuisanced and complex is truly a gift.

we do need to revisit the wording of "you can't have your cake and eat it too" because i don't think it clearly enough conveys that it's more that you can't simultaneously retain a cake and also get to consume it (which would render you cakeless). for years i was like But why not....it's my cake....?

this fucking problem is how they caught the unabomber

hey you should uh. elaborate. for my own personal satisfaction

the unabomber was pedantic about idiomatic phrases like "have your cake and eat it too" and rephrased it to "eat your cake and have it too" (which to be very fair makes sense). fast forward to when he starts writing manifestos. he uses the phrase word for word in his pedantic style and his brother (who has been keeping his eyes on the unabomber shit for obvious reasons) notices the phrase and is like "oh fuck that's my fucking brother no one else fucking says that" and calls in an FBI tip
