Falsehood would probably be useless as well as wicked, so truth is best.

Very true!

Might affect the likes a bit but I think a lot of people just scroll through the replies

Tsk tsk

Thank you!

I had to look that up - very clever!

Would make sense, maybe a science fiction/fantasy set for teens

The Owl Service was written by Alan Garner - I think Ursula le Guin might have critiqued it in an essay once, but her fiction is wonderful, do try something by her now, if you’ve mistakenly avoided her all your adult life!

My stock of tsks tsk is running low, so I’ll let that one pass.
