There’s a video of Jacob Elordi playing a handheld gaming console while makeup artists transform him into his Creature, but someone said the large, rectangular, non-folding console he’s playing on was a DS?
This is a Steam Deck! 😤

Thank you, Internet Archive, for housing Shelley and His Circle, an invaluable resource, but I need that Volume 4. 💔

Now watching Stuart Gordon’s Dolls! Immediately we’re introduced to wronged punk hitchhikers, a girl reading Hansel and Gretel, her family (father, dead mother, malicious stepmother), miraculously fast weather changes (sunny to stormy), and magical transformations of the inanimate to sentient.

I’ve had this book for years and am just now making the connection. Haha. It takes me a minute (er, years) with nicknames. 😓

Happy to know that the brown colour named after Lord Byron was in around this period, as seen here in the January 1826 issue.

While looking at fashion articles from La Belle Assemblée published around The Last Man’s release, I found these two little mention in its February and April issues.

Hey, it’s another Grove cousin/in-law of the Shelleys painted by Romney!Elizabeth Chafyn-Grove, aunt of diarists Harriet and Charlotte Grove, was the sister of Shelley’s uncle Thomas. Her nephew, Capt. William Grove, also happened to be her sister-in-law’s husband… 😬

Day ago, I put on American Horror Story for background. I was already familiar with the older seasons. I didn’t pay much attention to Cult until I heard the name “Oz”, and then my neck twisted once I heard “Ozymandias” being the kid’s name and I locked-in. The Jim Jones imitation scene was crazy.

I found the Shelleys in the American Heritage Dictionary of the English Language, third edition! I was gifted it months ago, but never had the chance to skim it.

More. The last three remind me of a lion leaping from a dreary crowd into an oncoming force. I saw the leaping lion first and made up the rest. Shelleyan cloud augury? Lionel means (little) lion after all, and both Shelleys had a very active Lionel in their works. 🦁⛅️

Could anyone here give me their full opinion on The Oxford Handbook of Percy Bysshe Shelley? I’ve only read excerpts from the “Shelley and Women” chapter, looks promising. Reading multiple past writers on Shelley compared and contrasted against each other is very exciting.

Today, September 12th, is the day Lionel Verney from The Last Man (1826) finds a vacant cottage following his leave of Ravenna. Recalling his stay, Verney remembers turning thirty-seven during his first week as the last of his kind. Happy Birthday to the survivor of Mary Shelley’s distant future. 🎂🌿

You can find multiple books in-game while fending off a zombie plague and other illnesses, from The Decameron to A Vindication of the Rights of Women! You can read them in your inventory; however, they’re summarised from the looks of it.

The Last Man in…a video game? Yes, an edition of Mary Shelley’s novel appears in DayZ, a post-apocalyptic survival game set in a post-Soviet country. The online multiplayer game from 2018 was published by Bohemia Interactive, a Czech video game developer with a focus on military simulation.
