Links Roundup

Haven’t posted in a while. The world’s been fairly awful this week, but we already know that, so I’ll link to a few lighter topics.

If you’re not familiar with the “Steamed Clams” meme, fans keep re-editing or modifying a scene from The Simpsons in which Principal Skinner attempts to impress the school superintendent. These people went to the trouble of filming it in the style of The Cabinet of Doctor Caligari. I’m particularly impressed with their efforts to give the title cards the right look.

A series of tumblr posts by romanceyourdemons that plays like a cross between Blackadder and a Chinese historical drama.

(I enjoyed it enough to write a much shorter fic in a similar style.)

I’ve been doing some cross-stitch samplers, and am currently working on this red-winged blackbird.

That completely exceeds shitposting.

"Uh, it's a Bavarian expression."

Behind-the-scenes-Jeeves! Jeeves as you've never seen him before! I giggled quite a lot.

{ETA} I also laughed out loud at the sampler.

Hah, that's an exceptionally good red-winged blackbird.
