01.25.2020 5:00 PM | Today has been one of those days where I’ve accomplished a lot, but because it was all “progress” and not a lot of completed tasks, it didn’t feel like a lot. But progress is progress!

Giveaway Contest: To celebrate 2020, we’re giving away twenty paperback classics featuring Truman Capote, Virginia Woolf, T.S. Eliot, John Steinbeck, Agatha Christie, and others! Won’t this collection look lovely on your shelf? :D To win these classics, you must: 1) be following macrolit on Tumblr (yes, we will check. :P), and 2) reblog this post. We will choose a random winner on February 29, at which time we’ll start a new giveaway. And yes, we’ll ship to any country. Easy, right? Good luck!

Ah, ye of little faith! @nahmastaynn​, @hannah-horan14​, YES… we’ve had dozens of winners, and I’ve given away about 500 books. I always ask my winners to take a photo of the books they received and post it to their tumblr so I can reblog it. You can see all the posts where I announce our winners and all of the posts from our winners here. 

I was so fed up with school because it seemed like my best was not even enough. I gave it my all and I still received bad grades. It’s all good though, tomorrow is a new day and I will try again.

I am going to stop taking notes now. It is taking a long time to take notes, especially for me as I like to take time to make it pretty. Instead of taking notes, I started to just try to read and understand the lecture notes, close the book and try to write everything from memory on a blank paper. Other than that, explaining the topic to my family without looking at the textbook really helps as well.

can’t feel anything, barely able to think, apathic™, can’t relate to anything, emptiness™, can’t cry, slow™, dissociating

also, sorry if this is off track, but i’ve seen people do this with antisemitism too. When Mark Zuckerberg was on trial, the Jewish jokes and antisemitic comments came leaking out of the woodworks. Sure zuckerberg is a twat but that shit is still inappropriate and unnecessary. It’s like wanting to hurt one person, so you decide to attack an entire group of people to get to them. shit’s messed up.
