So, I am going to hoist my unpopular opinion: hooray for Greenwich Mean Time!

Most of these are just mildly spicy but fully defensible opinions, so here's mine: Bertilak and his European analogues are manifestations of Al-Khidr, not in a syncretic mythology way but in a "the green fella was coming over the sea to fuck with the folk at the edge of the world" way

My mother used to remind me that the median pop music output of the 60s was Englebert Humperdinck and Des O'Connor rather than the Beatles, and so too I regret to inform the young people that is now that the median comedy of the 90s was Goodnight Sweetheart not Brass Eye
I need y'all to stop and read the blurb for the Goodnight Sweetheart reboot novel.
UK people absolutely DO NOT try and explain this and the original show to the Americans. You can't. I've tried.

Since this is going around, here's a fic that the late AJHall/legionseagle wrote for me after an enthusiastic sporking of Mary Renault's worst (?) novel, North Face. archiveofourown.org/works/8175052 I treasure it, and miss her a whole lot.
