It’s that time again - it’s #FairyTaleFriday! This month I read Gabrielle-Suzanne Barbot de Villeneuve’s original version of #BeautyAndTheBeast. It’s quite far from the Disney version we all know & love, but v interesting nonetheless! Just don’t expect any singing candlesticks...

Me: Language is constantly evolving and what constitutes “correct” English is a reflection of common usage and consensus over time Also me (in my head): YOU’RE FUCKING USING THAT WORD WRONGLY YOU FUCKING IDIOT

Hi all, happy Pride Month! 🏳️‍🌈 Things have been super quiet this year I know, but I wanted to let you know that our Pride designs are now back on Redbubble, in case you want to celebrate Pride with a flavour of classic children’s literature. redbubble.com/people/WillowA…

A bit sick of people sharing images of El*n M*sk and judging/ridiculing his body. By all means criticise his character and actions, but if you’re so quick to be cruel about someone’s body because they’re a “bad person”, it just shows you’re thinking those things about others too.

Those who only know the Tin Woodman from the movies are likely unaware that in the original fourteen Oz books, his origin story is the most messed-up, horrifying thing you can imagine. And his ultimate fate is even worse.

Read the Oz books. Read them to your kids. Read them yourself, if you think you can stomach the horrors. L. Frank Baum had probably the most inventive imagination of any American author, and there’s no knowing what lurks around the next bend in the yellow brick road.

Merry Christmas for the last time in my childhood home (probably - thought the same last year and my parents still haven’t moved!)

Should “milk it for all it’s worth” have an apostrophe or not? It depends on whether the word “worth” is being used as a preposition or a noun. Is it “for all it is worth” or “for all the worth it has”? Growing up I always assumed the former, but I think I now favour the latter

So in Cinderella, all her fancy clothes etc fade away at midnight. So how is the Prince able to pick up her glass slipper and try it on every girl in the kingdom? Shouldn’t the slipper have faded away or turned back into a normal shoe or whatever?
