i love sitcoms, even the "bad" ones, even the ones that get worse as it goes on, i just love them. i love all of the long running jokes, the slow burn romances, the impossible situations, the meaningless drama, i love having something comforting to watch. they make me so happy.

I love Much Ado About Nothing for many reasons, the main one being that my friends would definitely come up with an elaborate scheme to get me a partner despite me being resistant to it.
Although I fear it may be more ominous in real life than it was in the play.
Speaking of which, PLEASE watch the adaptation with Catherine Tate and David Tennant as Beatrice and Benedick, it's hilarious.

I love overanalyzing comedies and suddenly seeing the (sometimes intentional, sometimes unintentional) overwhelming tragedy of them, it's like peeking through the Lovecraftian veil and coming back forever changed, knowing more than man was ever meant to know but unable to share that knowledge unless the others have also already seen™️ the great beast (subtext and various details not visible to the untrained eye) themselves

Publishers’ Binding Thursday
For this week’s Publishers’ Binding Thursday post we’ve got more Shakespeare! This is As You Like It: A Pleasant Comedy by William Shakespeare. This edition was published in 1900 by Dodd, Mead, & Company in New York and is “newly embellished with sundry decorations by Will H. Low.” 
Will Hicok Low (1853-1932) was an artist, muralist, and writer. He also did decorative murals and design work, providing large-scale work for places like New York’s Waldorf Astoria Hotel and the rotunda of the New York State Education Building. 
The binding is a green bookcloth with a gold stamped sweeping floral design. There is a flowery bit at the middle of the cover stamped in white and outlined in gold. The title is stamped in gold.
