last step before I distribute my dissertation tomorrow: finally heeding my advisor's advice to "learn the difference between 'that' and 'which'"

it's about a girl in a shipwreck, a victorian medical student, and a seaside town where the tide never comes in! it's about grief and awe and the vast strangeness of the world and the ways our bodies betray us! it's full of public domain art that I took an x-acto knife to! what more can you ask for?
a scan of a black and white zine page — half of the page is covered in a ripped image of an oil painting of a shipwreck. the other half says "ebb tide." the bottom is labeled "issue #1, by christine prevas" a scan of a black and white zine page featuring a wood engraving of a ship on rocky waters. text at the bottom of the page says "The story I want to tell you begins on a ship."

also I did just remember today that I had at one point started making this, and now that I’m re-reading the Sprawl trilogy alongside Shelved by Genre it may be time to revisit this

it's about BOTH OF THEM, apparently
Then, there is his incestuous relationship with his sister Lucille (Jessica Chastain) and how their love for each other drives them both mad, creating a very toxic relationship that they each share. This relationship transforms into the moral lesson that del Toro wants us to understand from his narrative: that love can make people go mad, and this is embodied closely by the Sharpes. And yet, Thomas changes, thanks to meeting Edith as he attempts to betray his sister, whom he loved, and thus willingly dies in order to save Edith from his sister's wrath.

Roger Ebert's one-star review of The Tenant is *so* funny
Roman Polanski's "The Tenant" was the official French entry at Cannes last May, and in the riot to get into the press screening one man was thrown through a glass door and two more found themselves amid the potted palms. It's a wonder nobody was killed in the rush to get out.

just the Divine mask and a pair of clip on dangly diamond earrings the red dress hanging up a garment rack along with the mask

“Could you give us some of your political beliefs?” “Kill everyone now. Condone first degree murder. Advocate cannibalism. Eat shit!”

I’m at the Acropolis Museum again and I have to share the meme I made when I was here five years ago
