hmm. okay i think if your goal is to humorously but genuinely summarize othello you have to say the words racism and black more than once. "othello is an idiot plot there's no reason for othello to believe iago" Address Me 🐘

rating spenser as more accessible than shakespeare is crazy. no he is not

"[Marlowe's Dido play] was probably coauthored by Thomas Nashe, which would explain the part where a man has sex with a woman."

"Spenser, whose work could be used as a form of birth control"

“It’s a curious fact that the more challenging a work of literature is, the more likely the reader is to fall asleep facedown in its pages. Conversely, even the most scornful reader of Dan Brown effortlessly stays awake through his books.”

NOT ME!!! I WAS FIGHTING FOR MY LIFE READING THAT SHIT!!!

not even considering that his wife might have preferences… i’ve got to attack manmohan like a hyena

"Many relations of power are interwoven with(hetero)sexuality, cleaving differences between private and public women, between women you “take home to the parents” and women whose very identity marks them as lesser, as fit for little more than being consumed and then discarded by men."

"Now when he took Meena to their room she was the woman-child who melted his heart but hardened his penis."

meena kill your husband and be reincarnated as a lotus flower

act 4 // i don't know how i managed to forget the sheer volume of time travel fuckery in this comic

"CG: YOUR BRITTLE HUMAN CALCIUM BASED SKULL IS WHAT IS WEAK, AND IF YOU AND I WERE IN THE PROXIMITY OF A BLUNT INSTRUMENT I WOULDN'T HAVE MUCH TROUBLE PROVING IT."

420 slutty, slutty years since 1606

“…heterosexuality-as-regime is set up to extract domestic, sexual and reproductive labor from those deemed women under its logics. Its definition of womanhood and the narrowness of her stipulated role in society is oriented around domestic confinement, in rigorously naturalizing a positionality of abjection and servility towards others.”

so well said. cf kate manne’s down girl

"Apparently, [Vergil] spent his life writing books in a room by himself. Biographical tradition depicts him as shy, sickly, and gay. However, those biographers may simply have been speculating based on the fact that he wrote poetry."
