“fuck you my child is completely fine”
your child reads classic literature for fun
sometimes i’m like “i should read a new book” and then i see the secret history on my shelf
no one paints portraits of their lover’s decaying soul and moral corruption’s physical manifestation to keep their lover themself youthful anymore they don’t do it like they used to
“are you okay” no i annotate books for fun
all i want for christmas is someone who will take me to a library and let me stare at books for hours
normalize using “bro” in academic writing
computers suck, let’s use typewriters from now on
i don’t do anything but wish to be in an academic cult
