I was shaking my head at the Helen Keller - Amelia Earhart confusion until I double checked something.

I was getting Helen Keller confused with Anne Frank...

    Amelia Earhart

    Wasn't she that maid that took things way too literally? ;)

    You're thinking of Amelia Bedelia.

    Amelia Earhart was Paul Simon's girlfriend. He wrote a song about her leaving, then coming back to him.

    Thread gives fond memories of a pre-fediverse experience. I used to subcribe to a no-you're-thinking-of community there; is there one on the fediverse? Related, is anyone collecting Lemmy/Piefed switcharoos in some community?

    That was Cecelia. Pretty sure Amelia Earhart was King Lear's daughter.

    Nay. that is Cordelia. I'm positive Amelia Earhart was that movie about the French girl with the black hair and the crazy eyes in the movie poster.
