"Mary Shelley's Frankenstein but literally everyone is trans" is something I didn't know I needed until now.

Wouldn't it be cool if someone adapted Frankenstein with an entire cast of trans actors?

Oh hey, we're doing that! But we need your help to fund it!

Surprised Eel Historian, PhD @greenleejw.bsky.social · 15d

Your beloved has brought you a plate of eels. This is good news! Right?

RIGHT?

Well...in premodern England eel was a common enough meal that it sometimes got used to disguise poison. What's that, you ask? Is it it time for a thread about murder-by-eels?

Yes. Yes it is. 1/5
🗃️🧪

Meme. Painting of six people sitting at a table laden down with food, looking startled as a skeleton taps one of them on the shoulder. The skeleton is standing behind the person on the far right, tapping with its left bony hand & holding a class in her other. The tapee has his hand over his chest & a look of shock on his face: the sort of expression you would get if you walked in on your great aunt Sue in the middle of a menage a trois with some other folks from the assisted living facility.

The others characters at the table are all either leaning away from the doomed soul, or actually falling backwards in fear. Curiously, the one 3rd from the left, hidden in the shadows, looks like an angry Abraham Lincoln. But what would he be doing here? He doesn't look like part of the company; perhaps he's working with the skeleton to settle a score (one of 4, likely). The better angels of our nature, overcome by the skeleton of his revenge.

Meme text reads:
"This meal is
deelightfully deadly"
