An outfit a day, 21st November
Rosewind in an Elsie style dress* the fabric is patterned with skulls and snakes and roses *This soft and flattering dress creates an hourglass silhouette with its feminine draping and wrap-around design. The plunging V-neckline and cinched waist draw the eye inward, while gentle gathering and a cascade of flares accentuate the hips. Finished with a slim, asymmetrical hemline that falls just below the knee.

I have seen several excellent memes/posts on the subject BUT speaking as one who used to literally strip rotten flesh off human bones (so I could extract DNA from the bone) the “laboratory”* in Frankenstein (2025) whilst utterly gorgeous was a fucking disgrace…

HORROR 😱

Me: I’ll just quickly read through the National Curriculum…

“Apostrophes have two completely different uses...”

How exactly are these uses “completely different” guys*? Both indicate missing letters, it‘s just that the missing e from the genitive is historically AWOL

*non gendered
National curriculum English description of apostrophe: Apostrophes have two completely different uses: • showing the place of missing letters (e.g. l'm for / am) • marking possessives (e.g. Hannah's mother). BUT the reason we use ‘s for possessive is that the when English had a genitive it would often end with ES and the apostrophe indicates that missing E

One thing I loved about Frankenstein (2025) was that Victor is pointedly addressed as Baron Frankenstein NOT Dr Frankenstein

Reminded me of Andrew not a doctor Wakefield
Oscar Isaacs as Victor not a Doctor Frankenstein in Frankenstein (2025) Caption reads. oh sure blame the guy whose fault it is 🙄 [roll eyes emoji] Image shows Andrew not a doctor Wakefield Caption reads oh sure blame the guy whose fault it is 🙄 [roll eyes emoji]

We watched Frankenstein—I read the book* (memorably) one weird incredibly hot summer largely sitting in graveyards aged about 19 and accept it as an interpretation…
It’s a beautiful film—and I forgive the wolves—though it could have done with more hammers?
* to be clear I’ve read it more than once
Comment on Frankenstein, given the date I assume the novel:ultimately the truth about frankenstein is that we are all grotesque amalgamations of the best and worst parts of everyone who came before us. and sometimes the people who are supposed to love us because of and in spite of this will not. and we can kill them with hammers for that. and i think that's beautiful Victor in Frankenstein 2025 looking utterly gorgeous and very pissed off (Oscar Isaacs did an amazing job! what a nasty Victor we got here!) Text reads: oh sure blame the guy whose fault it is 🙄 (roll eye emoji)

xkcd.com/3166/

I do love xkcd but this cartoon seems to overlook measuring spoons and ALSO my actual spoon collection which is extremely varied
Just some of my teaspoons which I photographed for another rant I had There are eight teaspoons (there are silver ones, Sabre ones, one made of china etc) and also a measuring spoon and a small syringe My measuring spoons—they are skull shaped from Killstar My Measuring spoons spooning delightfully The xkcd cartoon: transcript from explain xkcd [Close up shot of Cueball's head and neck. Cueball is facing the left and has his arm raised.] Cueball: Some people like to be the big spoon. [Cueball's face and neck are still the only elements visible. Cueball is facing the right now and has lowered his hand.] Cueball: Some people like to be the little spoon. [A big spoon sitting atop a little spoon and a little spoon sitting atop a big spoon are depicted.] And some brave truth-tellers point out that the metaphor makes no sense because different-sized spoons don't nest right either way. You nest same-sized spoons. [Cueball is lying alone on a couch.] Cueball: ...and apparently we sleep on the couch. [Voice from outside the panel:] Voice: Why are you still going on about the spoon thing? Cueball: Because I'm right!

Me Cheeta is great! I was just thinking about it the other day!

Genuinely brilliant
The cover of the book “Me Cheeta” which is under “a satirical masterpiece. A spoof of genius.”

Help me BlueSky, you are my only hope!

Every time I see this little face it reminds me of The Fallen Angel by Cabanel—and I have found its painting before (I swear it’s a larger artwork with a goddess in a chariot or something?)

Please—where is this furious face from?
Furious cherubic face!
