South Australian. Moderately competent later-in-life PhD candidate. Delightfully book-tragic. Will waffle on sometimes about writing.
Okay, but this *did* remind me of this: youtu.be/DfITfSPjBmM?...

Everyone knows you must sacrifice the first pancake (crepe) to The Pancake (Crepe) God.

It is the law.

Honestly he's starting to sound more and more like Biff from Back to the Future. Poop flowing in opposite direction though, if I recall.

Oh just wait. There's literally a "confounded sl*t" Easter Egg thrown in at one point. For realsies.

Tenant was called *the* proto-feminist novel by a good chunk of scholars. I'll leave it to the end to elaborate ;)

Yup and then shamed the mother for Having Issues™️ about this (reasons why upcoming)

"Verriest milksop there ever was" is an underrated insult tbh (even if it's being used unfairly here). Loads of current political applications 😆

I am SO THRILLED you're reading this. Here for the hot takes. Have LOADS to say about this (did my Honours thesis on it so I have loads of incredibly niche scholarly facts rolling around in my head). Please keep adding to the thread!

In these uncertain times I'd happily take indifference over belligerence tbh...

Can you please stop being so talented? It's really doing a number on my self esteem. Next you'll be telling me you bake a mean souffle too.

Norton Critical Editions are the best too - the commentary/essays really add a layer to the classics 👌

This dog measures his world in baked goods.

- #PancakeMode™️ (it's must spread flat like batter, then flip over)

- #BaguetteMode™️ (similar to a cat's loaf mode, legs tucked in, pointy snout extended - for watching TV)

But WW3 in present day? Or like, WW1 in 1805? Important distinction, I think.

Bootleg pianoforte scores. I dig it.

I'm going to need you to tease this out

Yes Yes Yes. And Dickon (The Secret Garden) is literally Pan-in-flesh.

I mean, the scene when he meets Mary has him playing the panflute surrounded by animals...
