To be loved is to be changed but it’s my battered copy of East of Eden that bears various traces of life (used to carry it around as if it contained half of my soul).

Noticed it while rearranging my shelves. Perhaps I should encase it in a plastic to prevent further yellowing but somehow the signs of aging suit it best…

Watched the video, he praised the novel and found it profoundly relatable despite being a straight male, which I think is the best part of reading fiction: you can experience a world outside your own and understand that in the end we’re all much alike.

NYRB Classics has a charming selection, but can we talk more about their crime fiction/noir? Four of my favorites so far. Gritty, rhythmic, at times witty—badly need more stories in this vein.

Watched Orphanage (2007) with @winequished last week and discussed the role of horror in highlighting social injustices. Earthly haunts and eerie bumps in the night aside, the fear is ultimately secondary to the grief of knowing some children will never see their hair go gray.

Obvious parallel to the original story of Peter Pan with mother-son relationship and historical trauma taking center stage, plus gorgeous sets outfits that one would expect from a Del Toro’s movie (although he’s only the executive producer here).

Contoh warisan kolonial yang mendarah daging di psikis bangsa adalah crab mentality yang beranggapan bahwa hardships that border on or even straight up abuse is necessary to shape one’s endurance, which in itself is coherent with the intrinsic violence of capitalism.

Generally semua perusahaan ingin cost efficient, sementara merekrut & mempekerjakan karyawan butuh biaya. Akhirnya banyak yang merekrut pakai AI even though it’s been proven to be biased & inaccurate. Tuntutan ini semua yang juga buat pekerja seenaknya sendiri ke pencari pekerja.

Always so fascinated with blue eyeshadow for its rich history, from symbolizing divinity in ancient Egypt to a sign of rebellion against the rigid beauty standards. Hollywood even tried “vilifying” the color by making female villains use blue eyeshadow (eg. Zinnia from Matilda).

There’s an interesting conversation to be had about its resurgence beyond Tiktok summer trends after the rise of clean girl aesthetic (which is undeniable modern conservatism): is it a sign of recession, are we becoming disillusioned by the curated identity the internet gives us?
