I haven’t been here in a hot minute. Are the literary and academic communities still here, or do I need to go elsewhere? Bluesky? What’s going on??

(Maybe this is only a UVic thing but) I am sorely disappointed to never have gotten to go to a Victorian conference and wear my period accurate costuming or have at least someone hanging around in some???

[Hannah Eiserman @HannahEiserman]

Medieval studies people have it so right when it comes to conferences. Why are the other eras not dressing up in period accurate costume and playing period accurate music?

If you have been only talking about AI art or the obliteration of search functions I am BEGGING you to learn about the working conditions and environmental impact because IT MATTERS MORE

It’s been so incredibly fun to research little period accurate elements I can incorporate while still keeping modern functionality. I’m having a blast.

Since wrapping up my degree I have taken up a number of different pursuits that studies (& a student budget) kept me from. Like redecorating my apartment in a style that is somewhere between dark academia and late Victorian. 🥰

I’ve been a Taylor fan since 2006, so this is tough: I don’t think this is a good album. It feels like she internalized “more words = art” post-folklore. A 31-track album that boldly asks: what if there are two good songs on the front half?

@PoetCourtney As a follow up, I’m also currently eating brunch at a restaurant on Davie street called Yolks and it’s the best eggs Benedict I’ve ever had (and I was a breakfast cook!)

[Hannah Eiserman @HannahEiserman]

@PoetCourtney PAPER HOUND!!! My fave bookstore ever! Right across the street is a great bookstore too, not sure what it’s called… McLeod’s maybe? It’s that fun completely unorganized stacks to the ceilings type. Make friends with the owner and ask him for what you want — he has it!

“Music saved my life… This band is my family.”

I hope every boygenius fan (and really, everyone watching the Grammys) really heard Julien when she said this.

Don’t give up. Don’t fucking give up. You have no idea what your life could be.

[Hannah Eiserman @HannahEiserman]

At that age where I’m considering starting a Substack. Come be my friend!

I wasn't always 56. For a long time I was 26. This guy wrote Crush --

@richardsiken This guy revolutionized the literary world.

I now feel like Br*dgerton definitely ripped off TWiW with this dynamic…

[Hannah Eiserman @HannahEiserman]

After far too long, I am finally reading The Woman in White, and I can’t help but picture Laura Fairlie and Marian Halcombe as these two. Even though Mr. Wilkie sure loved his diversity, I know these two actually had to be super white. But I can’t help it.

[Hannah Eiserman @HannahEiserman]

Beautiful piece. ❤️

“Language is like a vessel. All the knowledge and those worldviews are carried within that language. So to offer or to allow the language to flourish in its natural forms... could be the difference between a culture dying or a culture surviving.”
