Out of the fertile ground he
caused to grow
All trees of noblest kind for
sight, smell, taste;
And all amid them stood the
tree of life,
High eminent, blooming
ambrosial fruit
Of vegetable gold; and next to
life,

this is not an essay about Emerald Fennell's "Wuthering Heights" why can't we cope with ambiguity these days?

"[Wuthering Heights's] refusal to clarify questions of heritage and provenance are key to its real meaning, and by imposing essentialism where there is none, you miss the point completely.

The posts I made that you all liked were written by me.

The ones I made that you didn’t like were written by AI.

Kudos to you all for spotting the fakes!
