A digital full-color illustration of two men in 1820s fashion standing in front of a dark green patterned background.

The man in the purple coat is fat, with the edge of his double chin visible at the top of the cover above the white cloth of his shirt collar. He is wearing a gold signet ring on his little finger.

NOW FOR PRE-ORDER: UN CASO ASSAI BIZZARRO BY J. PHAEDRUS

Don Magnifico, Baron of Montefiascone, has drunk his stepdaughter’s inheritance and gambled away her dowry, treated her as his servant for twenty years, and now whether he likes it or not, Cenerentola—Angelina—is the Princess of Salerno. In a single strange day, a valet became a prince while a prince became a groom, a servant became a princess, a baron became a cellarman, and somehow true love won in the end.

Goodness has triumphed, pride has fallen, and in the aftermath of all these strange reversals of fortune, everyone must put their lives back together. The princess might have forgiven her family their neglect, but the prince hasn’t: debts remain unpaid, apologies unmade, and questions unanswered. To win back any degree of respect, Don Magnifico will have to humble himself and accept the consequences of his actions.

And despite that, Dandini the valet wants to marry the baron. Don Magnifico wants to marry the valet.

Un caso assai bizzarro—a most bizarre case.

✨✨✨Then I wrote a book for you! ✨✨✨

Based on La Cenerentola, Rossini’s Cinderella opera, UN CASO ASSAI BIZZARRO is my first novel, illustrated by the incredible @insecateur and laid out (with hand lettering for the title!) by the inimitable @subvertebra. It’s beefy, clocking in at over 300pgs and a whopping 24% smut by volume.

This thing has been a labor of love from its first nascent imaginings as a fic submission for Old Man Yaoi Zine vol. 2 (and you can read that original fic here!) to the final product. It comes complete in three acts with illustrations, an academic foreword, and some of the nichest opera jokes I’ve ever put to the page (keep an eye on those running headers in act 2…).

Pre-orders are available via form RIGHT NOW!!!, with full release coming in March.

jeff goldblum is the type of guy who gets mistaken for gay because he’s jewish. nathan lane is the type of guy who gets mistaken for jewish because he’s gay. stanley tucci is the type of guy who gets mistaken for gay because he’s a mild-mannered italian, which is jewish. seth meyers gets mistaken for jewish because of everything about him. zachary levi gets mistaken for jewish because everyone wants him dead. tom cruise gets mistaken for gay because he is.

I'm still thinking about the guy who saw me realize my wheelchair wouldn't fit in the elevator because he (also a wheelchair user) was already inside it and immediately quipped, "This elevator ain't accessible enough for the both of us."

Since tumblr is rightfully loving this one, I feel obligated to mention that I ran into the same guy again on the last day of the convention and told him Scribe was really entertained by this, and he said that the night before he'd also really gotten one of the hotel waitresses, who informed him he could take a seat wherever and he replied "Oh, no thanks, I brought my own"

something something that quote about how much of gender presentation is made of one’s mannerisms and one’s walk and how much disability inhibits or totally disallows that, rendering you forcibly genderless in presentation. something something the fact that disabled adults are so frequently infantilised and framed as sexless and unfuckable. something something “you can’t be trans/gay AND disabled”. something something being stripped of your adult, gendered, sexual identity as a disabled person.

the mexican football team has a 17 yrs old player and one of the funniest outcomes of this is that he cannot appear in any ad for gambling or drinking so he only appears in candy and milk advertisements. his first world cup and he's not even legally allowed to drive. his nickname is "morita" (little berry). he's three apples tall.

they couldn't put him in the beer campaign so he was represented by a bunch of berries
