Trigger warnings for P. G. Wodehouse.
It’s come to this, but has a lot further to go. From The Times. PG Wodehouse is the latest author to have their [sic] work altered after a publishing house edited several Jeeves and Wooster books as part of an effort to remove “unacceptable” prose. The novels Right Ho, Jeeves and Thank You, Jeeves, bothContinue reading “Trigger warnings for P. G. Wodehouse.”
It’s hard keeping au currant with contemporary leftist thinking [sic] . . .

This is a bust.
Gone to pot. Legalizing marijuana in New Mexico hasn’t turned out to be the pot of gold (so to speak) for all, despite predictions otherwise.
Gary Cooper: “The best thing I ever did”
A familiar tale. Another convert, this one far more illustrious than your Tatler, but his tale of conversion as told in this marvelous account, bears similarity to mine. In fact, all the conversion stories I’ve read, from Newman’s on down, have a common theme. Whether the convert-to-be was deeply religious, but of a different faith,Continue reading “Gary Cooper: “The best thing I ever did””
