Pride&Prejudice is to women what Lord of The Rings is to men
*Bear with me*
P&P championed strong-willed women with “masculine” traits of ambition/stubbornness/going against family intentions
LotR championed emotional men with “feminine��� traits of companionship/feelings/fears
December:
- Eat the entire supermarket
- Take everything you own and mull it
- Fruitlessly search for parking
- Fill fridge with stuff you’re not allowed to touch
- Wear too many layers in the shopping centre
- Be constantly flustered
- Hunt for stamps
- Pretend to have fun

WOMEN IN COMEDY a thread
We are just trying to exist and tell our stories in a framework that punishes us for our femininity and also punishes us for not conforming to it. We are told our stories don’t matter, our careers don’t matter in comparison to men
A well deserved ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ from @curtainupshow for @ItsBenHart's Award Winning show @Gildedballoon during #edfringe
“a brand new heart-stopping spectacle.. a must for magic fans.. the final illusion is worth the ticket price alone!”

Go see @SoozUK perform her hilarious show Super Sonic 90s Kid @ Globe 1pm. Great for for 90s kids, those who lived through the 90s, and those who didn't but want to learn what they were like.
