There’s a time and place for everything, and I believe it’s called ‘fan fiction’.

HAPPY INTERNATIONAL MEN CAN WEAR DRESSES DAY!!!!
Ever wondered by it’s okay for women to wear pants but men can’t wear dresses? It’s because dresses are feminine and men who wear them are degrading themselves with femininity, whereas women who wear pants are improving themselves with masculinity. What a bunch of bullshit! If there are any men out there who truly value women as equals, they will be unafraid to show that MEN CAN PROUDLY WEAR DRESSES.
So today I’m putting out the call to my surprisingly large number of male followers to go out, don a dress, take a picture, and submit it! It’s open to anyone who’s male-assigned or male-identified, so don’t be shy!
Have I mentioned I love Waterstone’s today?
this is like the only valid argument against ebooks, tbh. WHAT IF THE APOCALYPSE.
Shakespeare plays and sonnets performed using 400-year-old Original Pronunciation.
This video demonstrates why historically informed performance can be so illuminating. Puns and lewd jokes, hidden in RP, leap out when performed in certain versions of OP. Rhymes that don’t work in RP, do in OP: love vs. prove, speak vs. break, etc. The ca. 1600 OP is so rich sounding; I would love to hear a production using it!
So cool! I remember my fabulous twelfth grade AP English teacher having us read Chaucer aloud in a very similar accent (“Whan in Aprrrrrrille…”), and it really made the text come alive.
My inner English lit major loves this.
