Love when this happens with period costuming. Gives SUCH a sense of realism in hand me downs (and I KNOW Bridgerton isn’t going for historical accuracy in its fabrics/styles, but choices like this root stories in a lived in world - like, of course sisters share dresses!)

say what you want about how 'boring' Jane Austen is but she could at least write a consistent story and she didn't have 50 million people checking over it before it was published, which I'd say is about the bare minimum

There's actually so many levels of wrong to that page of quotes that I'm actually overwhelmed with where to start. Would I start with the fundamental misunderstanding of Jane Austen's genre? The lack of historiographical insight into comparing societies written centuries apart?

Being a fic writer isn’t easy. Writing is a vulnerable act in itself, and in fandom you’re doing it for free. In this specific fandom readership and engagement is down, and trolls and mean comments are up. So what does that add up to?

If you can’t celebrate the fact that Anthony Bridgerton an officious, overly-exacting and often abrasive bitch, I’m not sure you like who his character actually is. And that’s okay! you don’t have to like a character, but also, the facts are the facts and that’s who he is.
