• IF YOU ALL DON’T STOP POSTING UNTAGGED SPOILERS FOR THE NEXT INSTALLMENT OF GREAT EXPECTATIONS I SWEAR TO GOD
• george eliot setting off a flurry of debate regarding which other authors are Actually Secretly Ladies
• put down “idylls” and read some actual arthuriana 🙄🙄🙄
• are gothic and sensation novels poisoning the minds and morals of the youth? discuss.
• a call-out post by a lady’s maid of her former employer, leading to the latter getting doxxed
• extremely gung-ho spiritualists
• swifties but make it jenny lind
• coquette but make it pre-raphaelite
• james steerforth x y/n fic written by someone whose URL is rosadartles
• temperance movement discourse
• Girls When Whatever Our Souls Are Made Of His And Mine Are The Same
• “getting a lot of anthony trollope vibes from this” <- guy who’s only ever read anthony trollope
