u/rosemary-sprig

for background:
-she has been diagnosed with bipolar disorder and is convinced she doesnt have it
-she has obsessive tendencies
-she has recently become a born again christian (we were raised as very normal catholics and she left the church, but then came back full force more into evangelical style christian)
-before this, she was falling for tiktok mental health stuff that was basically like “oh if you breathe, you have autism and trauma”

less than a year ago, my sister proclaimed that she was visited by st john for her misdeeds and became christian. now she has fallen deep down a rabbit hole and lost all her friends due to her telling them that they’re demonic and they need to be saved. every evil thing happening in the world now is because people are completing demonic rituals and sacrifice.

she posts about 20-30 things on instagram each day, with things getting more unhinged each week. yesterday, she posted a guy who solely does conspiracy theories talking about how covid was a test for the government to see if people would take the mark of the beast.

she’s falling fast, and i’m not sure how much longer she’s going to have before she loses all sense of critical thinking. is there any way i could possibly get through to her? i’m desperate, i miss my big sister and i’m worried about her daughter

i need like, professionals for this. i’ve been trying to deal with this stuff for a year and it still finds a way to keep growing in new places 😭

so i finally got my fiancé to sit down and watch the movie with me, and ofc i also had to tell him book lore.

he started noting that a lot of beats in the book are extremely similar to dracula. he has a masters in english and letters, and was saying how in the 1800s, copyright rules were basically “you can copy something as long as you call it by a different name.”

given that dracula came out first, do you think leroux was inspired by it and intentionally or unintentionally copied dracula?

i see these dance classes all over instagram and they seem so fun. the only dance classes i’ve seen here though are either like HIIT classes that dont do choreo, or your typical ballet/zumba/hip-hop/etc classes

i essentially want to dance like i’m in the club, but at a reasonable time with my 9-5 lol
