Long time, no see, blogosphere! I am insanely busy, with no bandwidth for much other than SYENZ. So, for now, please take assorted nuggets of levity as a token of my appreciation.

If a man says he's 5'11" that means he's 5'9" because if he were actually 5'11" he would have said he was 6'0".

This is Princess Elisabeth Charlotte (1652-1722), mother to Philippe II, Duke of Orléans. She was famously direct & once criticised her son for his ugly lovers, saying he used them as he would a chamber pot. To which Philippe replied “Bah! Mama, in the night all cats are gray” pic.twitter.com/2wd4DUL2iG

OK, dude here, and I gotta ask women to do the emotional labor of explaining something to me:
What’s up with the murder show fascination?
LOL I don’t know, but I love murder shows, too. Women are also prolific writers of horror, especially Gothic horror (*raises hand as member of HWA*). I think women in general have a lot more to fear in the society, and fictional engagements with own anger and vulnerability and powerlessness offer a compelling way to process the fear and stare the monsters in the face from the standpoint of relative safety. (Note that the vast majority of victims in murder shows are women.)
See, for example, this thread: https://twitter.com/RomGothSam/status/1371099390421651457?s=20
I really love these, gonna share second breakfast with my lab mates tomorrow
These are great! The literature one and the bear one: c’est moi.
