CLUELESS (1995), dir. Amy Heckerling + Letterboxd Reviews
There's this book I read as a kid. I don't remember what it was called and I don't remember the author.
It was about this princess who had long, curly red hair. I don't remember her name. She had three older sisters, two of which were twins. She was being tutored by the eldest's love interest. I don't remember why, but her family got put under a curse, and her eldest sister turned into a weeping willow tree and the twins into swans. So she had to run away, and she cut her hair to pretend to be a boy. And there was a girl named Megan or Meghan with her (the only character whose name I remember), and Meg(h)an had blonde hair that was slowly turning black because she was infected with evil raven magic. I don't remember how it ends.
Anyway, it's not so much that I want to read it again but more that it bothers me immensely that I can't remember what book it was.
I tried to look up what book this could be. There are endless books about older brothers being turned into swans, but I couldn't find anything where it happens to older sisters. The tree one got me a lot of recommendations for parks and botanical gardens. And the hair search returned a bunch of articles about Megan Thee Stallion.
So I have no idea what book this could be.
But I did find a website that might be able to help you out
I am really tempted to try to take an inventory of all the books I own. It'd be useful for me to keep track of what I have so I don't accidentally get duplicates. And it'd be kind of neat to post it here because I love to see what people have in their libraries.
But.....
I own over 300 books, at least. Probably a lot more. And, due to limited shelf space, I kind of have them stashed everywhere around my house.
It would be a huge undertaking for me just to make a full list of them all. And then organize that list. And I know myself. I would absolutely include details about what specific edition I have. Have I finished them? For the unread ones, have I just not started them yet, or are they dnf? And on and on and on....
So much effort and I'm not sure if I can really commit to it
I know that’s kind of the go-to thing to show that a vampire character is “one of the good ones” or whatever but it actually seems a little bit more fucked up for a vampire to steal blood from a blood bank than for a vampire to attack people for blood, at least as long as it’s not the kind of vampire where a bite is instantly lethal like it never stops bleeding.
People can recover from losing some blood but blood bank blood is constantly in short supply and is reserved for people who imminently need blood transfusion of a specific blood type or else they die.
Forget the Myers-Briggs fucking personality assessment. I am dead tired of hearing if someone is an INFP or an ESLQ or whatever. I want to know if someone is melancholic or choleric. Bring back the four humors. I wanna see “Kaley, 16, phlegmatic” when I go to someone’s blog. Who is with me. Lets make this happen
Another thing pissing me off this morning is fucking allistics thinking they need to teach me "manners"
So fucking what if I said hey instead of good morning. Don't fucking lecture me over it!
If y'all look around hard enough on tumblr (or just happen to come across it with no effort whatsoever) you will find my old blogs.
If you do find these blogs, I want to say, loud and clear: I AM NOT THAT PERSON ANYMORE!!!!
I know that I said some awful, stupid shit. I fell for some dumbshit propaganda and came dangerously close to being radicalized. The anti-sjw stuff sucked me in hard.
And I am fucking ashamed of it. I wish I could hide it away and pretend it never happened. But it's better to own up to who I was. I like to think that I was better than a lot of the people in the anti-sjw crowd, and I was very willing to call out the worst ones. But that doesn't make my old views any better. It doesn't excuse them.
I sucked.
And I'm sorry.
