There are a number of authors who can make me laugh but Wodehouse is one of the few, and the best, at actually lifting the spirits and making me happy!

I have a slight interest…
Lemmy IS indexed by Google. Try searching for “site:lemmy.world” for instance. Also, if it you don’t like the way one admin is running their communities/server then you can move to another server/community and be completely out of the control of the first. Try doing that on Reddit.
Wodehouse was criticised for repetition very early on.
In the introduction to “Summer Lightning” he wrote…
“A CERTAIN CRITIC – for such men, I regret to say, do exist – made the nasty remark about my last novel that it contained ‘all the old Wodehouse characters under different names’. He has probably by now been eaten by bears, like the children who made mock of the prophet Elisha: but if he still survives he will not be able to make a similar charge against Summer Lightning. With my superior intelligence, I have outgeneralled the man this time by putting in all the old Wodehouse characters under the same names. Pretty silly it will make him feel, I rather fancy.”
