I'm sorry but calling Bob Dylan a butch role?? I have to laugh. Butch women are much too powerful for that pathetic weasel of a man. He would wet his pants at the sight of one and scuttle away into the distance.

Timothee Chalamet as Bob Dylan… Jeremy Allen White as Bruce Springsteen… can we please start casting actual butch women in butch roles..?

fun ideas and all but this would not work because Giles would not have to explain anything. It's Snyder. He would take one look at the situation, assume the worst, just smirk about it and leave. Let's be real, that man does not care

just once I want to see how the fuck Giles would handle it if Snyder caught him locking Oz naked in a cage at school at night

I would begin with Jane Austen over Charlotte Brontë; of all Victorian writers, Jane Austen is the most accomplished in terms of storytelling and writing style, so she reads more smoothly for a modern reader. I would start with Pride and Prejudice: that gives you prime Jane Austen and her most representative book as a start, so then you can make a good judgement of what she's all about and whether you like it. From there on, it depends on your personal preference: I would continue either with Emma (her best work imo) or Sense and Sensibility (ever so slightly less mature than P&P or Emma but just as charming and also prime Jane Austen in spirit). Northanger Abbey feels like her earliest work by far; the elements of what makes her great are there (the wit, sparkling dialogue, and social commentary) but without the accomplished storytelling (the characters are comparatively flat and the story is more crude). It's a bit like reading the skeleton of a prime Austen novel, so I wouldn't start there. Mansfield Park and Persuasion are the odd ones out in the sense that they're a bit more melancholy in tone; less superficially charming, but with a promise of something yet more mature (because she died so young we'll never know how she would have developed further, alas). I think they're best suited as the last Austen books to read. But really, all her books are absolutely brilliant so ultimately it doesn't matter that much

girls in my phone help me. what jane austen book do iread first. is northanger abbey a good place to start? or should i read jane eyre by charlotte bronte first just because i should also read that book

Watching this game as an oranjeleeuwinnen supporter is probably what watching the arsenal v man utd game was like from the man utd pov 😬

One of the worst games I’ve seen us play in a while. Of course that’s also thanks to Spain, but our game at the WC against them was much better. I really hope Tuesday against Germany is better.

yeah same, I feel optimistic bc it’s at home and we always do well with home support, if I was germany I’d hate my life rn. playing away twice.
