book about love, queer joy, a sentient house, and gentlewitches.
Today, you can buy it.

- Some of y'all out there didn't read encyclopedias for fun as a kid, and it shows.
- One more time for the people in the back: the medieval world was diverse because it was THE WORLD. Danes traded with Persians and vice versa. Africa is over the water from Spain. Your idea of a whitewashed Middle Ages is patently wrong.
- My three hunger modes, deeply inspired by ADHD. 1) I’m so hungry I feel sick but I also hate all food. 2) I’m not really hungry but the 6 snacks I had clearly weren’t the correct ones 3) Bit more cheese.
- We are begging you. People also had bright, beautiful clothing. If you survived childhood, you lived way past 35. They were not any more saintly or righteous than people today and still had a preoccupation with bums and fiddly bits.
- What happens to the Ladies of the House of Worth after 7 months of quarantine? Which one are you?
- 1 - Welcome to #ThreadTalk, muslin edition. Muslin has been all over my feed, so let me cut to the chase: The finest fabric in human history was perfected by the Bengali people but tragically lost in the wake of imperialism & economic ruin at the hands of the English. 🤬🤬
- Just remembering how after the One Ring was destroyed, they still had to fight for the Shire. The rot goes deep.
- Because yes this is a hill I will die on: stop calling things tentacles that aren’t tentacles!
