I simply would not keep a muse locked up in my house for years and abuse her for ideas until her ex-husband showed up to torment me with infinite ideas and slowly lose my mind and ultimately let her go to make the nightmares stop.

Bonus 81: Linguistic Advice - Challenging grammar snobs, finding linguistics community, accents in singing, and more
Are there linguistics things in your life that you would like advice about? In honour of our 7th anniversary making Lingthusiasm, this is an episode answering your advice questions, from the serious to the silly.  We're not professional advice columnists but we are professional linguists, and many people have asked us variants of similar questions over the years.
In this bonus episode, Lauren and Gretchen get enthusiastic about your linguistics questions! We give advice about how to change people's perspectives on "correct" language, intergenerational slang, amateur research and finding linguistics community and jobs outside academia, learning signed languages from Deaf instructors, singing in different accents, our desire for more research on how podcasts spread linguistic structures, and a lightning round of many more questions!
Listen to this episode of linguistic advice, and get access to many more bonus episodes by supporting Lingthusiasm on Patreon.

Bonus 2: Victorian Class and Gender
Hannah sits down with Dr. Jen Sudgen to discuss the ideals Victorian Class and Gender, and how they come across in Dracula. This interview contains spoilers for Dracula (and we're talking last-page-of-the-book spoilers!), so if that's something you care about you should save this bonus for later. This episode was hosted by Hannah Wright and edited by Tal Minear. The transcript was done by Rook Mogavero.
Transcript here.
Here are links to the various papers, articles, and media Dr. Sugden referenced:
"The Angel in the House" by Coventry Patmore
The Royal Family in 1846 by Franz Xaver Winterhalter
"Dracula and Women" by Carol Senf in the Cambridge Companion to Dracula
"The New Aspect of the Woman Question" by Sarah Grand
"What It Will Soon Come To" in Punch Magazine
"The New Woman" in Punch Magazine
"Passionate Female Literary Types" in Punch Magazine
Dr. Sugden's underrated Victorian fiction list: the works of Anthony Trollope, the works of Wilkie Collins, and Lady Audley's Secret
Here are audio dramas you should listen to:
Check out Victoriocity, a detective comedy podcast! It's set in even Greater London, 1887. In this vast metropolis, Inspector Archibald Fleet and journalist Clara Entwhistle investigate a murder, only to find themselves at the centre of a conspiracy of impossible proportions. You'll hear our beloved Jonathan Harker (Ben Galpin) in it!
Check out Fawx & Stallion, a comedy podcast about rivalry, friendship, fame, and occasionally about solving mysteries! It's set in London, 1889. When the residents of 221B Baker Street leave town for the weekend to solve one of their most famous cases, no one is left to clear a poor housekeeper’s name of a crime she didn’t commit. Well, no one except for their neighbors at 224B…

Really enjoyed "The Ranch," one of the bonus episodes from The Hotel. I also like drawing horses, so win-win. So, here's poor Violence having a bad time
The first one was me testing out a color filter. Looked so rad I had to keep it, even though I took the final in another direction. Oh well

In this episode, your hosts Lauren and Gretchen get enthusiastic about four science fiction books/series we're read recently that project interesting future versions of English. In the Terra Ignota series, set 500 years in the future, the characters use singular they for each other but the narrator uses "she" and "he" along with "thou" for deliberately archaic/subversive effect. In Woman on the Edge of Time, set in both the 1970s when it was written and 150 years later, the future timeline uses a gender-neutral "person" (short form "per") and has abolished gender roles in a way that's even starker in comparison to the 70s timeline. In the Expanse books, set around 2350 in space, humans living on the asteroid belt have created a contact language named Belter Creole with influence from English and many other languages, which was expanded on further for the tv show. In the Book of Koli and sequels, set centuries into a post-apocalyptic future, the narrator has many features that are rooted in present-day English but associated with less literacy (such as "could of" or "count and seal" for "council").
We also talk about reading books set in the future but written in the past, and how several of these books now exist in a future that's in some ways more similar to their imagined futures than the time when they were being written. Note that we're not spoilery for major plot events in any of these books, so you can feel free to listen without having read them! Though we can't guarantee you won't come away with a few additions to your reading list....

[a scrap of paper is lodged between days 33 and 34, looks less like an entry and more like notes]
The decaydance ban on The B Word may reign supreme but on its day they sure were visible, mics turned up high and the friction in his jeans that caused a spark that lit their hats ablaze, now matter how much two of them must have tried to fight it. Oversized suits were not silly enough. Or perhaps every performance will bring about its own whimsical wardrobe.
Even when there's no all powerful whims to fulfill, even when we lose a whole day to the commitments of pleasing a generic crowd, every song will be formally debuted live.
[on the other side of the paper there's crude stick figure drawings with details added on by many different people in different colour pens depicting first 4 stick figures eating at a mcdonald's parking lot, with a figure with curly hair, another one with a fedora and a beard and another with a longer beard and short hair making heart eyes at a fourth figure with long hair and a skirt, then a second drawing below this of a car with a heart on top and the driver (really tall and carrying a mic with fabric tied to it) running away, then a third one with the car now being driven by the stick figure in a fedora trying to run over a 6th stick figure also with long hair at the front of a building labeled 'VMAs', and then at the bottom of the page in fresher ink there's that last stick figure, now in a cape, getting ran over with a golf cart in flames being driven by the figure in a fedora while the one in a skirt balances dramatically grabbing one of the cart's beams and the other two cheer in the back.]

M.A. Presents: Solidarity Forever
Tumblr media
[Image: The Monstrous Agonies logo, teal against a black background. The logo is a complex puzzle cube with M on one face and A on another in a gothic font. End description.]
We're back, we're back, we're finally back! 🎉🥳
We're counting down to the start of Season Three with four special bonus episodes, starting with Solidarity Forever - an exploration of the role creatures have played in the history of trade unions, with special guest star Pippin Eira Major playing economic historian Maxwell Pierce!
Listen now on our website, on Spotify, or through iTunes! Full transcript available online. 🎧💖
Pippin is the writer and editor of @spiritboxradio, and plays protagonist, Sam, as he struggles to find his feet as the presenter of a radio station for witches and enthusiasts of the arcane. I imagine we already have a fair bit of overlap in our audiences, but if you haven't checked them out yet I really recommend you do! You can follow them here on Tumblr, or find out more on their website or Twitter.
Big welcome to all our new patrons we've gathered over the break - TinyToniMeloni, DJ, Ray, Megan and Mirka. You can join them at our Patreon, or make a one-off donation through our Ko-Fi page 🤑
Finally, today's the day my lovely little friends - submissions are now OPEN! 🤩 I've updated the guidelines a little on our Submit page here on Tumblr, and will be making a longer post about submissions tomorrow. In the meantime, if you have any questions then fire away.
Enjoy!
