ok maybe people have talked about this before but what if the book from bsd is supposed to parallel the book from 1984? in british literature class, we just started reading 1984, and upon reading the first chapter, i noticed some similarities between the two books (spoiler alert for bsd and 1984)

the most obvious thing is that both books have no name, both just referred to as "the book"

another similarity is that both books have the power, or goal, to change humanity/society because of the people who have/want possession of it. in 1984, the brotherhood is writing the book to break down or change the oceania society. in bsd, fyodor and the decay of angels want to write in the book to change humanity to something better

also 1984 is a british book, and the british have a bit of great significance in the bsd universe (as seen in stormbringer, 55 minutes, and dead apple)

anyway yeah i just made that connection while reading 1984 and thought it was interesting :P

Julia would definitely listen to "Him & I" by Halsey while thinking about Winston

please does know "1984! the musical!"? it's an Australian musical and it's a REALLY GOOD and funny adapt of 1984 I've been obsessed with it since I found it last year and I NEED to tell more people about it please it's so good it's driving me insane Charrington is in drag, Winston is even more pathetic than the book and O'Brien is so baby girl who literally laughs like "ho ho ho"

i thought if anyone else knew it they would be on tumblr if you see this and haven't listened to it yet PLEASE DO IT ITS SO GOOD

Do you think Winston would like to play DnD?

Interesting question…

He enjoyed coming up with the character of Ogilvy while working for the Ministry of Truth, priding himself on the structure of the story. He’s also fascinated by the past, so he would probably enjoy the historical setting of many DND games. So I wouldn’t be surprised if he (theoretically) would want to be a dungeon master, since it would give him a sense of control he never had before with regard to the way in which events play out. He would be writing history, benevolently. He would get the chance to “tear things apart and put them back together into shapes of his own choosing.”

There is just something so 1984 about talking with your family about 1984, only to get a YouTube ad for it.

He’s the best ghostbuster because he can get these three under moderate control.
