You Can Never Be Overdressed Or Overeducated

I was about to be irritated at a shitty "kids' education" website on 1770s clothing but then I learned that there's a staymaker buried at King's Chapel and now I'm just delighted to know the gravesite of a clothing worker from that era and I want to take him flowers

I WAS TODAY FUCKING YEARS OLD WHEN I LEARNED THAT THOMAS PAINE WAS A MASTER STAYMAKER?!?!

THE COMMON SENSE GUY. BASICALLY MADE BRAS. FOR LIKE 8 YEARS OF HIS LIFE COUNTING THE APPRENTICESHIP

imagine if you're like. a random lady in England. and you found out that the guy you bought a support garment from one time is now publishing seditious pamphlets in the colonies

things he supported: -sedition -titties

😔

u know ur a tumblr local when u immediately come here to make sure ao3 is down and see people already posting about it. how dare ao3 be down and deprive me of my gay fanfiction. this is homophobic.

i reblogged your post way better than that guy

i am an ally to all embarrassing and uncool women forever and ever

TIL that movies like Jane Eyre, Mansfield Park, Far From the Madding Crowd, Pride and Prejudice, Emma, Anna Karenina, Atonement, Portrait of a Lady on Fire, etc. are actually called "period romances" because of the time period when they take place, and not because you're supposed to watch them once a month while wearing a heating pad and eating chocolate 🤭

My greatest tragedy is that I literally always want a nap, right up until ten pm, when I feel utterly alive and electrified.

The Sound of Music (1965) dir. Robert Wise

I finished reading The Priory Of The Orange Tree by Samantha Shannon, and I wanted to do a study of Eadaz du Zāla uq-Nāra.

I mean that about sums it up

did I ever tell yall I used to think charlie chaplin was a drag king. for like three years straight

we watched modern times in seventh grade n I saw this shot n just took it face value that he was a twinky butch. for three years

I only found out he wasn’t because in tenth grade the topic of old hollywood leading ladies came up w my friends n I went “I think it’s so cool how charlie chaplin did all those drag roles. she was cute too haha” n they all looked at me like I’d said something just truly fucking insane. which for the record I had

this may shock some of you but i love listening to music. does anyone else feel this way

okay here’s my advice for you for january2024. get a daily planner and use it to scrapbook!!!! use it to keep track of movies you just watched, music you’re listening to, put pictures of your favorite characters in it, get fun stickers to put in it its so fun! and when its fun its fun youre 100x times more likely to use it as an actual planner! i dont know why no one ever told me this but because it FUN now im using my daily planner to keep track of bills, keep track of my habits, im tracking my workouts with it… i have never been able to use a daily planner for longer than 2 weeks before but now i can cus its FUN
