People often say Jane Austen is among the greatest female novelists. But she is actually among the greatest novelists, period. Easily in the top ten. As C.S. Lewis said: “Her books have only two faults and both are damnable. They are too few and too short."
To the various people telling me Jane Austen was an overrated hack who never wrote anything of note: I can only say, in the words of Mrs Bennet, that you are such a disagreeable person that it would be quite a misfortune to be liked by you.

ALERT: S*x worker who was drugging men with fentanyl and then robbing them while they were unconscious was sentenced to life in prison. Tabitha Bundrick pleaded guilty to drugging 3 men with fentanyl laced-drugs, which killed them, and robbing them of their belongings. Mario Paullan, 42, Miguel Navez, 39, and Abrihan Fernandez Rodriguez, 34, all died while Bundrick stole their phones, wallets, watches, money, and clothing. New York City Police Department found 4 pairs of the victims' shoes in Bundrick’s home at the time of her arrest. Manhattan District Attorney Bragg stated, "As they laid unconscious, she robbed her victims and left them to die. In several instances, the victims' bodies were found by their friends or family members.” Bundrick was sentenced to 25 years to life for the murder charges and 2 years for assault.

Todas las putas elecciones igual. Y luego se tiran 8 años de corrido en el gobierno con la carta blanca de ser la alternativa al fascismo. Estoy agotada. Es aburridisimo. Las primeras veces comulgas con este discurso, luego ya lo aborreces. Hay un punto en el que hasta te cabrea.
De verdad que estoy en shock con toda la gente de izquierdas que dice que no va a votar porque "nada cambiaría si gana pp/vox ya que el psoe no hace nada"....... A nadie le preocupa la PRIVATIZACIÓN de la sanidad y la educación?? Por favor abrid los ojos, nos jugamos la vida

Remember those stories about male writers who stopped writing after their wives died, and we called it "losing their muse"? They didn't lose inspiration, they lost their uncredited co-writer.

I don’t want journalism from the left or journalism from the right. I want journalists willing to upset both sides because the evidence points somewhere inconvenient. That shouldn’t be a radical proposition.

i just read someone say “historically, men never provided for women, they simply restricted women from providing for themselves” and i haven't stopped thinking about it since.

Ser de izquierdas y estar a favor de tratar a todos los humanos con dignidad independientemente de su lugar de origen o forma de pensamiento no implica estar a favor de que 40.000 personas hayan pasado de forma ilegal a través de una frontera. No tenéis capacidad crítica alguna.

🚨 Li Meizhen a eu ses règles en pleine course lors du marathon du lac Hengshui. Malgré cela, elle a refusé d'abandonner, a poursuivi la course et l'a terminée. À 25 ans, la marathonienne chinoise a continué à courir malgré le sang visible sur ses jambes, alors que ses règles ont commencé à environ 8 km de l'arrivée. Déterminée à réaliser les minima nécessaires pour un championnat, elle a bouclé l'épreuve en 2 h 35, un exploit salué par de nombreux internautes pour son courage et sa détermination. 👏 (via Female Quotient)

women earn 60% of classics degrees and have earned 45-60% of classics degrees since 1990, attend university at higher rates, study the humanities even if not majoring in them at higher rates, and read more books. take that condescension back to 1930.
Christopher Nolan made the Odyssey as a way of forcing our wives and girlfriends to listen to us talk about our sea peoples theories and I say bravo

Qué tranquilidad que me queden tantos libros básicos por leer. Qué bueno tener enormes lagunas donde chapotear. Qué escándalo tan disfrutable el tener pendientes varias obras esenciales. Qué maravilla no haberlo leído nunca todo y que la literatura, aún, me siga esperando.

It’s a pretty horrible time to be alive if you have morals and a conscience.
