“Age is just a number” but not in the creepy predatory way, in the “my growth was severely stunted from a very young age and now I spend my days in a dissociative haze and feel the exact same each and every day. The passing of time is nonexistent to me. I’ve been twelve for eight years” way

GDI, once again I thought I was just a day or two behind and yeah, NO. Try almost a week. I blame BG3, CP77 and NMS for bludgeoning my brain and dragging it off into a locked room full of shiny content.

Reconstructing what I can remember since the last post on the 21st, didn't do much apart from cooking meals:

Aug 22 - Made fettuccine noodles from scratch (go me!) and froze half for a future meal. Served it for supper topped with a ground pork based meat sauce and chopped green onions.

Aug 23 - Baked a big pan of zucchini bread. Made a salad, oven fries, and fish burgers for supper.

Aug 24 - Cooked a couple of hot Italian sausages and served them with buttered boiled potatoes, yellow beans, and fried zucchini slices.

Aug 25 - Cooked a couple of hamburger patties and had them with french fries and corn on the cob.

Aug 26 - Went for a walk. Ran a load of laundry. Grabbed the last of the premade pizzas out of the freezer for supper.

The copy of Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde I'm reading has an introduction and a timeline that discusses multiple interpretations that were made of the text, most of them psychological and/or sexual in nature. The text is placed into the context of political, socio-economic, psychiatric, and literary studies about the era.

A stage production of the novella was quickly produced and played in the US, but when it travelled to the UK, the actor who played Jekyll and Hyde had to suspend performances after four murders attributed to Jack the Ripper... because his portrayal of Hyde was so convincing that people suspected him of the crimes.

There's also information about a law that raised the age of consent for girls from 13 to 16... and how a rider on the bill outlawed certain acts between men... a few years later leading to the arrest and prosecution of Oscar Wilde.

A mention of "Bloody Sunday" in Trafalgar Square, along with other events of the class wars at the time.

How RLS and some of his colleagues and acquaintances were invalids who spent the greater part of their lives in health resorts in southern England as well as abroad, farther south. RLS himself eventually ended up in tropical Samoa, largely for health reasons. Didn't save him, though. I'm already older than he lived to be....

I haven't even started reading the novella itself, but my mind is reeling from all the information put forth in the introduction. I've barely scratched the surface of it here.

Now I want to put Black Butler into the same context, though it obviously wasn't written then, it's sure set then... and there, in England.

I feel like I need to read a bunch of works from the time, more than I already have. Thankfully, some of the other books I bought when I bought this are in the general category. Some of the authors in this latest major book haul are represented by Snake's snakes: Emily, Brontë, Oscar, Wilde, and possibly others.

I still haven't taken pics of the books I got, but I will. Probably tomorrow.
