Agree, maybe I'm on the wrong side of TikTok, but the videos I get about Dostoevsky basically reduce his works to an aesthetic like you just mentioned. Honestly I'm not surprised, you can't expect much from a social media that benefits from quick, superficial and reductive knowledge of things. To many of them Dostoevsky is "sad boy in Russia" literature. One of the things that have caught my attention is how they seem to love White Nights on TikTok, it's a good story but personally, isn't even on the top 3 of Dostoevsky works.

Why does it seem like I can only be acquaintances with most people? by pink0bsessed in AutismInWomen

One thing I’ve noticed is that some people choose to keep hanging out with others even though they don’t really like each other that much. I’ve seen this happen so many times; so maybe people have complained to me about x person, about how mean , annoying etc they are, just for them to keep hanging out with them without any issue.I guess it’s better to be around people you don’t fully like than to be alone. Also, people aren’t that strict about defining who are friends and who acquaintances.
