honestly I'd have sex with a celebrity I didn't even find attractive if it meant I got to travel back in time. not really something you get to do every day, willing to bargain for it with my body if need be

Last year, I hung out in the ruins of Stevenson's villa in Bournemouth, where he wrote Jekyll & Hyde gripped by fevers and convulsions and nightmares. Bournemouth is this weird mix of extreme wealth and tawdry seaside cheapness; the town centre simmers with barely suppressed violence. But there's another aspect to it - of steep sandstone gullies and huge holm oaks that must be largely the same as when Stevenson was there. I was amazed at how many people were in the villa's grounds. I mean, it was me and two other people but that seems a lot for a minor(?) literary figure and a ruined old house. We were all kind of fevered ourselves: reading, pacing the floors of the old kitchen where he welcomed Henry James on cold winter evenings.
I saw the Shelley tomb as well. Weird day.

I had never actually seen a picture of Gary Cooper and now I can't stop staring at his face trying to work out what makes it so weird and so pretty at the same time.

He looks like a drag king version of William S. Hart (an earlier Western star):

Lots of people never have, Tom! He doesn't have a Hitchcock collab or xmas favourite to keep him in the public consciousness, High Noon prob his most high profile role now and that's hardly ubiquitous.
