How many Cvid vaccine have you received so far? are you up to date so far? 6th or 7th booster I believe.

Toxic appeasement of toxic behavior is not forgiveness... it is not “helping”. Serving toxic strong men leads to an empty, unfulfilled life.

Why does her personality remind me of emily from friends her voice is the same aswell

too bourgeois to understand him

I hope you can enjoy audiobooks now. For me it's not as immersive as reading but if you get symptoms from reading maybe it's an option. I work in a boring factory and listening to books while i work keeps me sane.

Agreed, the opening is so strong that it kept me through. Found the swerve really unearned and frustrating given how strong everything had been up to that point.

I have both MS and postCovid (2 years with postCovid and I hate it). MS fatigue is seriously disabling and overwhelming, but post-Covid fatigue is actually worse. Hopeless desperation, apathy and brain fog. I'm longing to be a bit normally ill with multiple sclerosis again.

Thank you! Here too...almost 2 yrs and still..so sorry that you're dealing with such...still...its hideous. In some ways it sounds like you are doing much more than i could fathom still..with the 'business' around social things...wish you continued gains with it and to get well

Sorry to hear you're not doing well. I'm going on 4 months of LC. I was couch bound for the first 2 months. Been getting progressively better every month. Now I just have a permanent headache, PEM, and occasionally fatigue. Hoping I'm one of the full recovery cases.

I recovered from VERY SEVERE vacc!ine injury / Long Covid. Please watch Dan from the KZbin Channel "Painfree You", his approach was the missing link for my full recovery. I wish you all the best from my heart.

The book has not changed since you first read it. Only your intelligence and even then there is still more to go

He hastens his mother’s death. I found that really shocking and good insight to his character.

A hauntingly powerful vlog - thank you. I haven't read the book, probably never will, but was moved by your honest struggle to respond.

Sorry, once you listen to Jeremy irons reading of these opening lines you can never hear it from anyone else again. He is Humber

Thank you for your story! Your treatment story is similar to mine. I’ve been using Photobiomodulation with about a 10% increase in energy. Give it a shot. I wish I could take on a big project like a house. You’re lucky to have money and a husband who can work. You will never have to worry about being homeless or being able to buy food. I used to be the money maker in my relationship with a career. Now that’s all gone, and I feel so guilty as my savings dwindle to nothing and I totally depend on my partner. I don’t know how some people with less could possibly survive. Best of luck!

Golyadkin is deeply disliked by his peers, but the man lacks self-awareness. It's not until he is exposed to himself, literally, that he begins to understand who he was and where he stands in society. Golyadkin is over sensitive, insecure, cowardly, and has a low opinion of himself; but he gaslights himself into thinking that he's "all right" and that it is everyone else who are bad- his"enemies." I find The Double to be very relatable since we all know a Golyadkin, and I think Dostoevsky wanted to explore the psychology of someone like this, and what would happen if they were forced to deal with themselves.

I believe the virtue of Lauren knowing how to read and write "deifies" her somewhat..

Don't know if you're still monitoring comments on this vid, but just in case you are; If you'd be interested in having an entirely new interpretation of the book closer to the author's intent, read his _Pale Fire_ first and then reread _Lolita_. Consider the possibility that there's a grand joke being told that you might have missed due to the intensity of the subject matter and writing.

What are your Vitamin D3 blood levels? If they aren't 100 ng/ml you may be low. Low Vitamin D3 blood level = low immune system function. (possibility of cytokine storm activity - rogue antibody activity causing disease.) Get your Vitamin D3 level up and you will probably feel better. How are your other Vitamin and mineral levels? A, B complex, B12, C, magnesium, Omega-3, folate, selenium, potassium, steroid levels??? You may be malnourished. Ask your doctor.

I just finished this book and it was so fucking funny! I was the same the first few parts of the book I was like I dunno….then got hooked in just before half way

I will never complain about my long haul symptoms again.

4yrs and counting for me, and we're talking pre vacinne and post ICU COVID19 hospitalisation.

I feel like you got the exact opposite reading from this book that I did, its about how the high society holds people down. The men who mistreat their wives are cartoonishly ridiculous villains, and Marian wants to go off on her own, but the society won't let her. It's a critique of the Victorian high society and was very progresisve for the time, even though the time was 150 years ago. All the things that are societal norms of the time, marrying out of obligation, being an obedient wife, etc. are shown to be obviously bad for the characters.

I actually really like this book, I like Victorian things though and this book is an insane rollercoaster ride. I think Marian is held down by the society and situation she's in and comments on that and why the whole Victorian high society is kinda bad. With Victorian books whenever I think about plot developmets I always wonder what someone reading it over 100 years ago would think about them, and how their views would differ from my own. Its certainly a product of its time however, but thats part of why I like Victorian literature, it gives you a window into how the world worked 150 years ago, its interesting not only as a face value work of literature, but also as a historical piece.

Scentless Apprentice .

Very helpful❤

Oof thanks for the concise analysis, i just finished reading it and thought this book is either waay too sophisticated or just plain nonsensical. But so that was actually his point then, which is kinda funny i get it 😂

The nose really has a mind of its own it can be offended but also pleased! Like animals we can use our sense of smell as a form intuition, and the idea that people distrust him because his lack of scent is intriguing. I visited Paris 10 years ago and in some streets the smell of sewerage lingered. Perfume is not just smelling good its also used to mask something bad. There is a practical reason why the Parisians are renowned for mastering the art of perfumery. Also the connection between smell and identity is interesting, you can choose your own fragrance to not only for us to enjoy, it leaves a sensory footprint, it has the power to make you unforgettably desirable but possibly associate your presence with a crime scene. Scent can allow memories to be retrieved but also trigger trauma responses. Smell is a gift like all other senses so trust your nose, and think twice when something smells fishy!

Love your contact and your chanel from egypt

You don't like literature because it challenges your prejudices.

A haunting story about a man losing his mind but also at times- hilarious. Wonderful, twisted book

I had the exact same thoughts on it for my first read. Don't think they'd improve any during a second time through.

I am really glad I didn't read this through our pandemic. It's a great book, with several topics. Work, family, romantic relationships and just existing in a big city.

She wasn't feeling ambivalent towards motherhood. Unless she was lying about her 8-year old girl decision to never have kids, and so it was already settled, which of course is quite possibly a lie. But I'm going to take her at her word. And the truth is, she's a seriously messed-up woman, desperate to be a man, hence the bizarre name change, if not literally at least to enjoy all the myriad prerogatives of being a man. insanely self-centered, and obviously tortured and demented by her own relentless self-absorption and personal demons. Other than being a writer I suppose. She's not a bad writer. So she's got that going for her. And this unfortunate book, however compelling and well-written, is nothing but a product of her understandable rage and torment at her morally and emotionally ghoulish inner life and what it has done to her. What I wonder is, what the heck were her own parents like? We know she's entirely unfit for motherhood, which is fine, even if it was sort of self-imposed and unnecessary. But was there no one in her life that could have put a little love back in her heart, before she went down this unfortunate path? This book has gotta be filled with some sort of heavy rancor inspired by her own parents. In any case, in this little potboiler, you have a deeply evil and sick, morbidly self-absorbed woman and reluctant mother, even if she largely lives a more or less normal, non-criminal life, with some small consolations and satisfaction to put a smile on her face from time to time. Her son, which is very, very obviously not meant to be thought of as innately bad or violent or anything like that. And who is merely the plaything of this quite palpably sick, loveless woman, and who's young soul is sadly poisoned and destroyed by the lack of essential love and affection that is deprived him by his odious mother. Unless perhaps he inherited his momr's perverse DNA. And then a loser, indifferent father to move the action plausibly along, instead of a more traditional stand up guy who plays baseball and metes out life lessons and whatnot. And quite naturally he's worthless, and shiftless, when what he should have been doing is getting him and his son the hell out of there. And, inevitably, another child, a daughter is born, and as such she is not on the receiving end of this sick woman's inimical apathy and spite, and ends up being both literally and figuratively maimed and tortured and killed by the hapless, unloved, now murderous son. Her brother. How very nice..... So if you read this book, even without learning anything about this woman's personal history, and cannot immediately see what a disturbed and haunted woman this Lionel Shriver is, then you did not get out what you were supposed to get out of this story....

Great review!

you saying you saw the book as agency for sexual agency really shows you see what you want to see.

Def not a book for teenagers to read. I never thought of it as a child seductress novel wtf, i thought it was very obvious it was Humbert fighting with his immoral love and lust and then just what happens from there written in the most beautiful way. I was annoyed at towards the middle and end Lolita had less and less dialogue and it does kinda show Humberts mind had run off with him and he was loving her for lust - focused on her idealisation or romantic abstraction - but love nonetheless. I wish the character of Lolita was explored more but how can that be the case when the novel is a manuscript from a fervent sexual loving mad man, our perspectives are limited thusly.

You need to listen to a catchy Britney Spears song and get your behind off the couch, girl.😂

Jesus is Lord!

Haven't finished the book yet, but agree with all you have said. I simply love the book, as I love Charles Dickens.

Have you tried laying out in the sun? I know it sounds daft or silly...just try it for one hour a day. Another idea is floating in a pool for an hour a day. I feel like if you just went on a long sun filled beach filled vacation it would help.

This is more of a critique of the Victorian era. The production of literature is a reflection of the society in which it is produced. We can't impose today's norms, beliefs or even sexuality on a piece of work from 164 years ago.

I don’t think you really understand literature! Maybe you should also find another way of expressing yourself instead of using that kind of language. It doesn’t enhance your explanation at all.

Great documentation of the gender disease of XXI century. Who was your mentor? Internet? Sad leftist activist. Poor girl. Luckily, more clever than any of her admirers. 👍
