If the Characters of Pride and Prejudice Were Online

Here's what they'd be doing

Mr. Hurst is streaming video games on Twitch.

Mrs. Hurst is an out-of-touch influencer who argues with the commenters.

Miss Bingley has spent her time reporting accounts and flagging comments ever since Darcy deleted his social media.

Mary Bennet is a pedantic blogger, 13 followers.

Mr. Bennet has a witty twitter, 13,000 followers.

Mrs. Bennet is sharing wild, self-contradicting posts on Facebook.

Charlotte is fact-checking Mrs. Bennet so she doesn't have to spend time with her husband.

Lydia is dancing and doing makeup tutorials on Tiktok.

Kitty appears in Lydia's Tiktoks.

Lady Catherine is an MLM Queen. Suits are pending, but her money is off-shore, so she's good.

Mr. Wickham is a manosphere dude. The creepy kind.

Mr. Collins is a theobro. He thinks that because he's got a cool beard and a pipe, you should take him seriously.

Georgiana Darcy has accounts but never posts anything.

Mrs. Gardiner posts pictures of flowers and birds; she mentions her kids but doesn't post pictures of them.

Bingley posts pictures of his dog. You notice from the timestamps that in the morning he's hiking in the country and by lunchtime he's in the city; how does this dude get around so fast?

Jane is coordinating Meal Trains and carpool.

Darcy is not on the social internet; he reads a few trusted news and commentary sources but does not comment on it online.

Elizabeth .... I don't know what Elizabeth is doing online. I just know she's doing it charmingly.
