omfg guys, after trying to find this one specific fairy tale/folk tale I learned about during sophomore in high school and had made an Ever After High oc based on, but a couple of months after making this oc I tried to find the website that chronicled the fairy tale but I could not find it. Thinking the original website got deleted, I tried to see if I could find it using the wayback machine. Nothing. UNTIL TODAY!

I was looking through the Wikipedia page of 'Sleep in mythology and folklore', and I found it! The story's called "Life's Secret".

A real supervillian adaption of the Mad Hatter would ideally play on all of the weirdest things from Lewis Carroll's Mad Tea Party chapter in Alice in Wonderland. Constant nonsense that goes nowhere. If nobody's ever read it, it's on wikisource. I downloaded it to read one time at school. Here you go:

It's a short enough chapter, and it's wonderful. One of the best quotes I just copied to share here: "The Hatter's remark seemed to her to have no sort of meaning in it, and yet it was certainly English." That is amazing. This book was charmingly silly. It didn't have to make much sense, and it wasn't expected to make sense. It made it's own rules. It worked on it's own terms. And the Mad Hatter being perpetually stuck at teatime because he somehow offended time with his horrible singing... that's hilarious too.

My point merely is: we have options here, DC. There are options on where to take this character, and all the good options don't involve mind control or sexual harassment. How mind control was taken from Alice in Wonderland… I have no freaking clue. The book isn't about mind control. There's no reasons for the hatter to microchip people. It feels like a cop out character trope used because they couldn't think of a better way to work in the surreal fun and fantasy of Alice in Wonderland.

[Watson:]"En jetant un regard sur mes notes des soixante-dix et quelques affaires dans lesquelles j'ai, pendant les huit dernières années, étudié les méthodes de mon ami Sherlock Holmes, j'en trouve beaucoup qui sont tragiques, quelques-unes comiques et un grand nombre tout simplement étranges, mais il n'y en a aucune qui soit banale ; car travaillant, comme il le faisait, plutôt par amour de son art, que par esprit de lucre, il refusait de s'associer à toute recherche qui ne présentait pas une certaine tendance à l'extraordinaire et même au fantastique." in:(A.) CONAN DOYLE.La bande mouchetée.(The Adventure of the Speckled Band).trad.:(L.)Maricourt,(M.)Le Houbie. éd.André Martel.1947.96pp+table+catalogue. 02/1994.Librio,texte intégral. p9.

currently in love with this 1870s satire: https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/The_Fight_at_Dame_Europa's_School “Illustrated by Thomas Nast. A didactic satire casting European countries at the time of the Franco-Prussian War as schoolchildren, and portraying their battles as schoolyard skirmishes. The text was written from a sympathetic French perspective, and meant to warn British residents of the threat of a German invasion.“ and honestly, some of the drawings out of context just look like modern-day shitposts:

(John and Louis poking their noses into other people’s business.)

(The Needle-gun.)

“Every dog has his day.” “There was a time.” That time is gone.

And, finally, “His occupation gone.”

“One need not be a Chamber — to be Haunted —”, Emily Dickinson

https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/One_need_not_be_a_Chamber_%E2%80%94_to_be_Haunted_%E2%80%94

One need not be a Chamber — to be Haunted — One need not be a House — The Brain has Corridors — surpassing Material Place — Far safer, of a Midnight Meeting External Ghost Than its interior Confronting — That Cooler Host. Far safer, through an Abbey gallop, The Stones a'chase — Than Unarmed, one's a'self encounter — In lonesome Place — Ourself behind ourself, concealed — Should startle most — Assassin hid in our Apartment Be Horror's least. The Body — borrows a Revolver — He bolts the Door — O'erlooking a superior spectre — Or More —

I took today (Friday) off to give myself a break and not get sick. . . . Wake up after nap time to find myself getting sick.

@random-random-things doing normal Friday things. Little at other places. I'm going to get a gummy, eat more pizza, watch Dune, and edit Wikisource (https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Main_Page). Give it a look-see when you can.
