Shakespeare Characters on the Internet, pt. 1

I’ve been spending a lot of time recently angsting about how my tech usage is eroding my attention, creativity, and general quality of life. Fortunately, that led me into imagining how various Shakespeare characters would use the internet and all the wonders and terrors it provides.

There will be more of these. The wilderness of the internet is infinite.

I’ve been meaning to draw a comic about the oppositely-named Benvolio and Malvolio for years, but never got around to it. Well, here it is!

Some useful quotes for our current time.

Consulting pocket dramaturg: Kate Pitt

Foul words is but foul wind, and foul wind is but foul breath, and foul breath is noisome; therefore I will INSIST THAT YOU PULL YOUR MASK UP OVER YOUR NOSE, COME ON, MY GLASSES ARE FOGGING UP TOO BUT SERIOUSLY ONLY SELFISH SOCIOPATHIC NARCISSISTS THINK THAT’S TOO HIGH A PRICE TO PAY FOR LITERALLY SAVING LIVES AND CURBING A GLOBAL PANDEMIC JUST dammit… I’m so tired… just wear your masks properly.

Shakespearean Christmas Carols, part 6

‘Tis season again! This year’s musical offering is not so much a “carol” as it is a “controversial beloved and hated winter-themed popular song”, but there you go. Enjoy!

Consulting pocket dramaturg: Kate Pitt

I’ve collected the past five years’ worth of Shakespearean Christmas carols on the brand new Good Tickle Brain Holiday Songbook page, for your festive singing convenience.

I’m taking next week off for the holidays, but I’ll see you back here on New Year’s Eve! Merry Christmas, Happy Hannukah, Happy Holidays, Blessed Winter Solstice, and/or pleasant secular week-off to all of you!
