IsaaC<p>"It was the popular theme for jests; it was the best cure for headache, it infallibly prevented hair from turning grey, it imparted a peculiar delicacy to the complexion, it was the National Razor which shaved close: who kissed La Guillotine, looked through the little window and sneezed into the sack."</p><p><a href="https://mas.to/tags/guillotine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>guillotine</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/CharlesDickens" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CharlesDickens</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/ATaleOfTwoCities" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ATaleOfTwoCities</span></a></p>

Queen of the Rona<p>One of the things I really like about <a href="https://newsie.social/tags/ATaleOfTwoCities" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ATaleOfTwoCities</span></a> is that <a href="https://newsie.social/tags/Dickens" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Dickens</span></a> doesn’t pull any punches in describing how awful the aristocracy was to the poor, but he also doesn’t condone the Reign of Terror, either. That’s the sort of nuance that seems hard to accomplish. Read a book recentlyish which built on the <a href="https://newsie.social/tags/ScarletPimpernel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ScarletPimpernel</span></a>, and it failed to call any condemnation down on the former rulers of France. Made me angry. (Not it’s only flaw, btw.)</p>
