look, you can't just punish trump when dems are in power. that might make republicans do something crazy, like stage a coup, illegally shred the federal bureaucracy, or even vstart abducting people off the street and extraditing them to torture sites all over the world

"Indies will save us" No! YOU WILL SAVE INDIES! Go leave a review for that neat indie game you like, share the trailer for an upcoming game you're anticipating, tell your fave developer they did a good job, go tell people about such and such game that's just come out, you can make a difference!

Turns out I was exactly like other girls, because all girls, all women, are real people, and deserving of a place in whatever room they want to enter. And yeah, I can understand that if you're a man who had the exact same dreams I did, looked at the exact same data, you may have assumed these...

If other girls and women weren't writing things that mattered, well, clearly, that was a them problem, and I wasn't LIKE them. Because I was a real person, and I deserved to play D&D, and I deserved to write the X-Men, and I deserved not to be defined by my fuckability.

Which sucks if you're a male author trying to break out today, and isn't fair, any more than the constant exclusion of female authors for decades was fair. Or the way women who DON'T write romance-adjacent genres get filed there anyway, because we must be lying when we say that's not our path.

I mean, I *guess* Pride and Prejudice might be considered a slow burn, but more in the way cartoon characters catch fire and don’t notice it until just as they’re about to become a mound of soot with eyeballs.

Darcy says something to the effect of, “I was raised to be like this, to think very little of people outside my circle, and you made me realize that sucks, and that was so sexy of you.” I’m gonna climb him like a sycamore

“The housekeeper at Netherfield had received orders to prepare for the arrival of her master, who was coming down in a day or two, to shoot there for several weeks.” Wait, but I never said Bingley should have a gun.

The letter ends with Mrs Gardiner remarking that she needs to stop writing and attend to her children, which I imagine feels more urgent after spending any amount of time trying to reason with Lydia

Everybody’s feelings are complicated, except for Mrs Bennet, who is like Tinkerbell and only has enough room for one feeling at a time.

Mr Bennet has maybe relented somewhat by allowing Lydia and Wickham to visit the family after the wedding ceremony, and I can’t wait to see how that goes. I’m tempted to say we should give Mr Bennet a gun at this point, but we all know he’s gonna use it as decor.

LOL MRS GARDINER, gesturing to a portrait of Darcy: My, what a handsome young man. I wouldn’t know for certain, though. Elizabeth, is the likeness of this picture very good? You’ve met him. Can you comment on or confirm his handsomeness? ELIZABETH, sweating bullets: *strained exhale*

Honestly, the thing about this book that makes me the most mad about this book is that it made clear to me that I am the type of person who would have said yes to a sudden out-of-left-field proposal if I was sufficiently startled by it. That’s apparently all it takes. How embarrassing!

I went into a fugue state and cartooned my feelings at reading this passage. I have floppy dark hair and round glasses. My head is tilted back, my mouth wide open, steam billowing out of it looking like a smoke stack. Mr Darcy’s words hang prominently around me. 

“In vain have I struggled. It will not do. My feelings will not be repressed. You must allow me to tell you how ardently I admire and love you.”

ELIZABETH: I can see why [Canonically Sexy] Colonel Fitzwilliam stops by. We have fun, he laughs at my jokes, and we have a little teeheehee. Darcy, though, I don’t get why he comes around. He doesn’t want to talk to me about anything. He just looks at me. I don’t know what it means. CHARLOTTE: 🫪

I think Elizabeth is doing that thing that we all do where we are correctly identifying a thing that sucks but instead of seeing the system behind it, we lash out at whoever’s in reach.

I must also retract my belief that Mrs Bennet should have a gun, a regrettable misreading of her character. I do, however, think it would be very funny if we gave Lydia a gun.

This party is taking forever, and I’m moving through it so slowly, which is the experience the other characters have every time Mr Collins decides to give a speech, which happens more than once somehow.

Elizabeth has decided that “patience with Darcy was injury to Wickham,” and is therefore resolved to be cold to Darcy. Who among us has not been kind of a bitch to an acquaintance because we were holding someone else’s grudge? Oh my god. This girl is all of us.

Okay so Jane Austen is making me retroactively like a bunch of these characters I originally found annoying by simply surrounding them with actual demons. Well done.
