Sir W. Pen began to talk with me like a counterfeit rogue very kindly about his house and getting bills signed for all our works, but he is a cheating fellow, and so I let him talk and answered nothing. So we parted.

@adapalmer.bsky.social half-way through reading Too Like the Lightning to my partner, I asked her what she thinks Our Man's name is.

That so many gags in Shakespeare are references to 16th C lost media is a sobering thought. Imagine being so popular the greatest playwrights of your day are memeing on you, then 500 years later the only surviving reference to your work is a dick joke in a play where an elf tries to fuck a donkey.

But seriously, class in the UK isn't complicated. Your class is whatever a rich person says it is. That's it. "Oh it's so confusing" no it's not, it's an exercise of power "oh it's so arbitrary" yes that's what makes it a good exercise of power

Lawful Evil is the funniest alignment. Nothing Le Wacky Wholesome Chungus Chaotic Good bard does will ever be as funny as the guards in Morrowind asking you if you have a license for that murder then pleasantly apologizing for holding you up when you produce said license.

I don't know why, but the judge is now citing the historical precedent of Charles I of England. This is an incredibly ominous sign for Yoon.

Oh muse, sing to me of the tale
Of a man blown astray by the gale
He was so complicated
That his fortune was fated
When homeward from Troy he did sail
