I Wish Everyone Would Admit That Classic Literature Is Inherently Difficult To Read, And That You Shouldn’t

I wish everyone would admit that classic literature is inherently difficult to read, and that you shouldn’t feel stupid if you don’t “get it”. Especially the dark academia/ classic lit fandoms and stuff. Like unless you have the vocabulary and pop culture knowledge of an 18th century nobleman, it’s going to be a tough read. It’ll take you longer to read; you’re not stupid if you’ve spent several months on a single book! And you don’t have to enjoy everything. It’s okay if you got bored after one chapter of Wuthering Heights, and couldn’t be bothered to read the rest. It’s okay if you want to read your favourite kids book for the 10th time instead. You’re not stupid. No piece of literature is inherently better, more “important”, more “meaningful”, or more “intellectual” than another. First and foremost, read what brings you joy.

Me: I want to just make a fun self indulgent WIP with self indulgent characters and tropes without worrying about the plot

Me ten seconds into planning: If this story isn’t perfectly flawless and thought out and unique and ready for publishing I will explode

Was thinking it was kinda sad spn never had a case in alaska; sam would be like "there's 200 people in town and one is possessed. we had worst odds" and dean would just be "sure, because nothing would scape hell and be like let's go freeze in a ghost town", and then in the end, either the demon would be just a random tourist who fleeds the state or some Actually Not Evil situation with someone nice hurting people by accident and dean would be "damn, there goes my gank a monster every state" even though he is happy anything isn't bad thing happening in this nice small town. It would of course end with Bee Gee's road to alaska playing in the impala.

Then I remember there was one ep there.
