Look on my Works, ye Mighty and despair!

honestly fandom has ruined me because now any time i'm in the desert and i see two vast and trunkless legs of stone or a half-sunk shattered visage i'm like "omg just like in Ozymandias" and its like come on girl not every half-sunk shattered visage is Ozymandias

Did you just attribute Ozymandias to fandom as a whole? That’s…deliciously ironic, really, if you don’t know the poet’s name.

If you don’t like me the delete your blog. I’m better than you and this site is mine.

ultimately the truth about frankenstein is that we are all grotesque amalgamations of the best and worst parts of everyone who came before us. and sometimes the people who are supposed to love us because of and in spite of this will not. and we can kill them with hammers for that. and i think that’s beautiful

well i can’t argue with that one

Ah yes, Mary Shelley’s monster.

no mary shelley is the name of the monster not the doctor

common misconception! mary shelley's monster was actually lord byron

something very funny about seeing the return of the "fuck yeah ___" blog but now it's "official ___ posts". tumblr's aging userbase embracing professionalism.

I'm normal in a lot of ways (enjoy bread, etc)

Most of the blogs in this little family are largely inactive but can I just point out most of us made these as teenagers or in undergrad but I'm pretty sure most of us are in grad school now.

Almost exactly a year later, and I'm officially an anthropologist and historian, albeit focusing on a different subject than this blog. I've had one of the most insane years of my professional life accepting and departing an executive role and fully deciding on museum work as my primary career. @mary-shelleys-ghost @lordbyronsuggestions mes amis, how are y'all doing?

Being a fan of a famous historical figure is crazy, I will be like ‘wow finally seeing my waifu this year 🥰’ and it will be at his mausoleum

You should all know I abbreviate the name of Percy “Bitch” Shelley as “PBS” because I want people to confuse him with the Public Broadcasting Station. It’s what he deserves. -C

I have questions for 18 year old me

Gives me hope that Amazon will one day crumble to nothing too...
