Thinking About Edvard Munch's "The Sun" (1911)

Fuck your zodiac sign which greek mythology characters do you kin

list of thing’s i can’t deal with

literally anything

I was so confused during today’s Drac Daily about this part in particular

Because that??? Bro, that ain’t Hamlet.

I went digging and found someone attempting to explain it:

If it is referencing this scene then it’s the part in the play where Hamlet says he’s going to throw everything off the table of his mind and focus only on revenge (this does…not work out for him).

BUT THEN

SO BASICALLY

B A S I C A L L Y

Stoker’s dumb acting friend MISQUOTED SHAKESPEARE loudly and often enough that it wound up in this novel????????

Shakespeare: And in Act 5, Scene 2, I will sprinkle in the fact that Horatio is gay

Broke: vampires are vulnerable to the trappings of Christianity only, particularly Catholicism, no matter how dubiously applied. (See: Van Helsing's Communion wafer grouting).

Woke: vampires are vulnerable to sincere faith of all kinds, and atheist vampire-hunters need to believe very strongly in the Power of Friendship or their love of Star Trek to get by.

Bespoke: vampires are vulnerable to the faith that they followed when they were alive, and hunters tracking down an ancient vampire are obliged to learn about Neo-Babylonian theology or Middle Palaeolithic bear cults.

listen. I know every year we all go "I wish good things will happen !" "I want my life to turn around !" and it gets stronger when we're starting a new decade. But things won't change if you don't make them. Jumping on opportunities isn't enough ; you need to create them. You want to be well read ? Read a lot ! Meet new people ? Go out and initiate conversations ! Get a new job ? Actively look for one, or more !

Gertrude: Where have you all been?!

Hamlet: Oh, just out dealing with things way beyond our maturity level.

The older I get the more I don’t see the point in talking
