Today's outfit: Pistachio, rose, and the jacket that I pair with everything. This tie and these trousers appear together in my outfits several times a year. It was the trousers I bought first, since their olive color allows them to pretend to be gray or green. The socks I chose to be a shade darker than the trousers, to transition to the monkstraps.
My apologies for the umbrella, which in no way goes with the rest. A proper brolly is an eventual investment, much further down the line.
Today we discussed whether Billy Shakes' swan song, with its tropes of sorcery and physical comedy, qualifies as "great" play. Answers varied: many maintained that the play's outward ornaments disqualified it, while others defended the argument that great books can and ought to be enjoyable.
Ars gratia artis? I'm an effete little lad, so I think y'all know where I stand on that matter.
Stay safe. Stay sane. Speak truth to power.
