Literally being a four year old in the UK has for generations been centred around these three stories and that we lost all the authors in the same year makes me inconsolable

Bad Winners
Alfie Gets in First By Shirley Hughes Penguin, 2018 No one likes a bad winner. We expect them to be humble and magnanimous. If they cry, that’s okay. We don’t mind if it means something to them. But gloating about it – no. That won’t do. Even if they gloat towards someone who might deserve it. Alfie is a bad winner. On the way home, he runs off from his mum and sister, and gets to the top…

Netflix - Dahmer - Monster -The Jeff Dahmer Story- “Episode 6- Silenced”
Baby Tony is a cutie Pie!
Manny is an asshole, why does being deaf change anything.
  I love Tony's friends
His poor worried Mother!
  Tony's getting discriminated against while job searching. Is it because he's black or deaf or both? Even the assistant at the record store was like WTF/  It's horrible seeing the look of distain on their faces. Just give this guy a chance! Finally a break! A clothing store hires him!
  Tony's smile is gorgeous, he lights up the room with that smile! Tony modelling!!!
  Go Tony Go!!!
I hope this photographer is not a creep! - Edit he's a creep.
  Family dinner! His family are lovely. His Sister is having a girl. She wants to name it after him. Tony goes to the clubs later.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Shit. The devil is staring at him.
  What is Jeff doing??? Is he on drugs???? Is he taking his shirt off to impress Tony
He decides not to drug Tony. They dance the night away. Jeff is giving him dreamy eyes, telling him that he likes him, which is obviously bad fucking news! RUN TONY!!!
Tony and Jeff are they....a thing????
  Tony's taking Jeff to work and everything
Jeff trying to clean himself up? Is Tony making him a better person???
Infinity land is that with bones??? Human bones???
Jeff is losing his temper with this game.
  Run Tony!!!
He's leaning over the board RUN TONY RUN!!!!
They spend the night together and Tony Jumps out of bed for work. Of course Jeff is all over him. He doesn't want him to go obviously.
  Tony goes missing and his mother goes to the police. She's so reluctant to tell the police that he's gay. Police instantly bring up drugs and gang violence, because obviously all black people are into that [sarcasm] Officers in this show are trash. Complete trash.
  They still are, but that's for another review!
  His poor mother.
  Jeff  has a fucking nerve showing up to his family's PSA
Flashback- Tony goes back for his keys, and Jeff.....does what Jeff does......
His now calling  the victim familes and telling them not to look for them.
  Jeff is now I assume eating Tony's flesh.
--------------------------------------------------------------
Notes one of the best Episodes, Heartbreaking, but it gave you and glimpse of how special Tony was. 
How the police didn’t give a shit because Tony was black
His poor Mother, I felt for her so much, because she knew, she just knew something terrible had happened. 
Shout out to Karen Malina White who played Tony’s mother. She was amazing.

I feel like Hill House and House of Usher are teaching the same moral using opposite techniques.
