A friend and her family are at #NoKings in Boston today. That other protest that started in Boston got us a new country in 1776. This Nov 2026, #WeThePeople will vote to oust DJT’s GOP enablers. No kings since 1776, and here we are in 2026 having to defend the U.S. Constitution to keep our Republic🇺🇸

“Does he mean to marry you, Belle?”
I considered deflecting the question...
“I believe so. Of course, I shan’t do anything of the sort; the man dips biscuits in his tea.”

ONE WEEK FROM TODAY: March 28 will be the biggest protest in US history. Find your local No Kings event to make clear you're part of The Resistance to this regime’s brutality at home, pathetic ineptness, perpetual lying & their illegal war in Iran. ✊https://app.sosha.ai/s/39HA7UDd

#BeautyandtheBeast tidbit
The Beast woos Beauty in her dreams, as her "Beloved Unknown." She doesn't fall in love with the Beast! She feels indebted to him for the loot he gave to her and her family.

Your Monster (2024) poster
Your Monster (2024). Ready made cult item I usually bounce right off instead has the energy of something Vestron put on VHS in 1988. Witty modern riff on Beauty and the Beast that zags into Tanith Lee country by ultimately relishing fairy tales for their blood than vehicles of self actualization.

I did some nerdy digging, so you don't have to:
✨ What actually makes a story a #fairytale — and not just fantasy with vibes?
Turns out, there are patterns. Moral lessons. Magic. A task to endure.

The Fire Rose by Mercedes Lackey rests on a blue and pink floral rug. The cover features an illustration of a man with a wolf‘s head looking at a woman in a glowing orb. The orb appears to be sitting on top of a lizard.
#50 I am a sucker for a Beauty and the Beast retelling, and The Fire Rose did not disappoint.

Long before Disney, roses symbolized femininity, purity & desire.
In medieval and early modern lit, plucking the rose wasn’t subtle.
Madame de Villeneuve knew exactly what she was doing when she prompted Beauty to ask for one. 🌹

The cover for ROSES IN AMBER, a retold version of Beauty and the Beast by CE Murphy, features a headshot of a lovely young woman with her gaze downcast. She's surrounded by roses, and a threatening arch with glowing eyes is in the darkness behind her. Cover art and design by Fringe Element.

In the original "Beauty and the Beast," written by Gabrielle-Suzanne Barbot de Villeneuve, the prince is raised by a nanny while his mother is at war. The nanny is an evil fairy who tries to seduce him when he's an adult. He refuses, so she turns him into a beast. #FairyTaleTuesday

An Indian depiction of a young woman in red holding a fruit and a snake, with another snake slithering inside of a tree and a storm above them raining down.
In India's Panchatantra, a girl named Bimbala Das married a black snake by the name of Debo, keeping him fed and happy in their relationship, and in kind also married the snake god, an avatar of Shiva, in an Indian variation of Beauty and the Beast. #FairytaleTuesday

Anastasia Beltyukova's depiction of Shamhat leading a now-clothed and somewhat forlorned-looking Enkidu from the wilds into the city of Uruk. The style is somewhat abstract, with the two humanoid characters rendered cartoonishly.
When the gods made Enkidu, they forgot to instill in him the instinct for civilization, making him no better than a Beast! It took love from the Beauty Shamhat, priestess of civilized Inanna, to tame him: but Enkidu lost his animal brethren. #FairytaleTuesday

The pop up book fully opened. It shows the scenes from the story like a carousel.
One of the scenes. The Beast has found an intruder stealing one of his roses.
Another scene on the storybook. The Beast confronting Belle.
I'm gonna show you one of the most whimsical books I have in my collection. This is a pop-up book, from around the 40s, showing an adaptation of "Beauty and the Beast"

Valentine’s lit canon: roses, yes—but also thorns. Why vampires fit #BeautyandtheBeast: curses, isolation, inconvenient yearning, and the tension of “I might love you… but I might bite you.”
