My (Somewhat) Dramatic Autumn Thus Far

October = Castlemania. This time I started from the beginning (so good) and watched into season 6 thinking that maybe I’d be able to watch the whole show. Then 7 happened, and there is the sour note (and I’ve plenty to saw, so prepared to be bored by a few more Castle posts coming up).… Continue reading My (Somewhat) Dramatic Autumn Thus Far

Favorite Castle Quotes, Early Seasons

For your reading pleasure, I present some choice quotes from the first (3 I think) seasons of Castle. And in lieu of a post that requires some thinking . . . ~~~~~~~~~ “Careful Hans, your New Jersey is showing.” ~~~~~~~~~ “From the library of Katherine Beckett.” “Do you have a problem with reading, Ryan?” “Yo,… Continue reading Favorite Castle Quotes, Early Seasons

“I’m so glad I live in a world where there are Octobers.”

Darling Desi has her fall decorating video up, and it is so inspiring. I was also inspired to find and share some smaller youtubers. The Darling Desi channel was small I think just last fall and is now huge, so that was fun to watch. Dark Academia Starter Pack Dark Academia Lookbook Dark Academia Room… Continue reading “I’m so glad I live in a world where there are Octobers.”

Beauty: Sunscreen Again

After the sunscreen controversy, I was left wanting specific products recommended, and apparently other people did too, so Odile Monod produced this video. I’m going to be trying the outdoor ones. I think trying to keep only indoor for winter is just too complicated for me. And Lab Muffin beauty produced this list of her… Continue reading Beauty: Sunscreen Again

A Tolkien Blog Party Tag

I’m joining in Hamlette’s A Tolkien Blog Party and answering this tag. I was going to try to reread Tolkien before during this year’s blog party, but since I don’t own the books and have set my heart of some very expensive copies, and I must read it a certain way because I mustn’t do… Continue reading A Tolkien Blog Party Tag

The One or Soulmates Myth

Of all the irritating fluffy pseudo-psychology or pseudo-philosophy myths out there, this one takes the cake. People who say they don’t believe in religion still think that the “universe” has given them one person. If you believe in evolution as most people say they do, how in tarnation could you possibly believe a random universe… Continue reading The One or Soulmates Myth

Love at First Sight Myth

The “love at first sight” love is Eros or at least the beginning of it. Of course you can have instant sexual attraction and euphoria, certainly that can be a part of true love, but just because you have instant sexual attraction for someone doesn’t automatically mean it will turn into love. So I don’t… Continue reading Love at First Sight Myth

Types of Love

I think a lot of romance myths (The One/Soulmates Myth, The Love at First Sight Myth, Falling In or Out of Love Myth) spring from a superficial definition of love. I think its useful to use the ancient Greek words for love since two in particular I learned as part of New Testament* understanding in… Continue reading Types of Love
