Sarjiksista puhuminen on jäänyt aika vähäiseksi. Nyt voin kuitenkin esitellä vähän niche-kamaa ja suuren aarteeni, nimittäin uudehkon #JeevesAndWooster -zinen, jonka on tehnyt ShinXo!
Tekijä oli ensikertalainen zinen teossa, mutta jälki on huoliteltua ja tykkään erityisesti pehmeistä väreistä. (Zinet on myyty loppuun.)

I've had a lovely time this evening working on what's turning out to be a novelette or novella. (Projected length: 15k words.)
The plot involves Bertie Wooster and Jeeves accidentally traveling in time and meeting the Buddha. It's fun to write, although creating something that can pass for Wodehouse's style is challenging. The man was a fiendishly clever stylist.
The best part is the research: reading tons of Wodehouse.

Almost all of the Fry & Laurie “Jeeves & Wooster” is available on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLHxC5fTU2oVbTLQ7WayDiYlnlHPjuOk6Z
The “Tuppy and the Terrier” episode nearly killed me by asphyxiation when it aired on PBS in the ‘90s because I was laughing so hard.

Ok so I wasn't the only one who never questioned #HughLaurie's American accent on #HouseMD lol, from reading the comments. I only knew he was British much later, specifically from watching BTS vids from after they had wrapped up the show. Since then, it feels so weird watching him in a British accent like in #JeevesAndWooster.
Side note: it's so sad to see him look rather old now :'))

I'd kill for a modern reboot of Jeeves and Wooster.
Bertie to Jeeves via zoom call: “What is it Jeeves; you don't mean to say you disapprove of my sizeable investment in FinkNottleCoin?”
Jeeves: “Perish the thought sir; I fear the noise-reduction algorithm inadvertently censored my ululation.”
Bertie: “Oh. Right then.”

My main fannish interest right now is #StrayKids (#skz). I've been skz-posting so much that I decided to make a side account, @skrr, just for skz-posting. Older skz posts will stay on this account, and new skz posts will be on @skrr.

I occasionally visit other social sites (tumblr, tiktok, reddit) and boost stuff there, but almost never post in those places.

Just occurred to me that Bertie Wooster (from Jeeves and Wooster) might count as some flavor of asexual: while he does occasionally fall in love, he spends a lot of his stories trying to *avoid* getting into romantic relationships with women who throw themselves at him. #Jeevesandwooster #asexual #aromantic

In chapter eight of Wodehouse’s “the Code of the Woosters”, when Stiffie Byng sets up a meeting for twelve ‘pip emma’, it’s clear she means midnight—it should have been twelve ‘ack emma’.
Unless in England, or in England of the past, midnight is twelve p.m.
This has long puzzled me

Magicians keep people guessing where they had things hidden. We know they didn't make it materialize out of nothing. The worst thing they can do is stop the trick halfway to explain where they really have the flowers, a rabbit, a coin, etc. There's no point in waiting to see it happen.
Good writing is like a magic trick; they're setting up important actions and the reasons for them. Readers don't want the end result of the character's struggled explained halfway through the book. Finishing it feels redundant.
I'm thinking of #JeevesandWooster as I write this. I gave it too much credit at first. After three episodes, I knew what to expect: Idiot Plots with Upper Class Twits manipulating each other, and Jeeves manipulating Wooster. I was done with the series when Jeeves visited the association of smart butlers who blackmail their dimwitted employers.

General concerns for a Monday…
“There are moments, Jeeves, when one asks oneself, 'Do trousers matter?’”
“The mood will pass, sir.”
