@AlanTarica @FolgerLibrary Sir, I wrote a whole article about the double-edged nature of a meme-ified pop culture, so clearly I realize how you will take my response. If you read my indifference to you as ignorance, I wonder if you read that article in good faith…

I wrote about NBC Peacock's The Traitors use of Shakespeare as a vibe and an aesthetic. Thanks to @FolgerLibrary for letting me share this on their Shakespeare and Beyond blog! https://t.co/eVX3Ari49L

@richardmpreiss I don’t know how representative I am of all Americans, but I think it’s just the fascists calling it that. I mostly see it in their Nazi throwback social media posts

@justforfujoshi @dearilya I have enjoyed everything I’ve read by this author

@acdprincesa I love this one from Wyatt Hayes’ perspective: https://t.co/sqVGJWbWm8

@oreoeocat I cannot “like” this 😢. Goodnight, sweet Oreo

[Melissa Rohrer @MelRohrer]

@meldevarona This validates my theory that “Too Sweet” would make an excellent grumpy/sunshine rom-com or romance

[Melissa Rohrer @MelRohrer]

@Sideways440 Maybe not a 10/10 movie, but Ladyhawke stands out in my minds. Could have been (and mostly is) a timeless medieval action romance but it has an 80s synth soundtrack

@JewishSpeed @zoerosebryant As a Kansan, “Ope” is more upper Midwest than plains Midwest. They got it right.
