>found out a new teacher at my old grade school wants to stop teaching shakespeare because it (not she, surely this thing isn't human) is devoid of any and all sense of irony and satire

its only npcs who arent stratfordians

also had a friend tell me the other day shakespeare was playing a character in the sonnets, because he had read so online. when i told him i had actually read them and he refers to himself as will in one of them, he told me they were from multiple perspectvies. of course theres zero textual evidence for this. also this friend is a jew and im not even antisemetic
