Your faves are problematic

blacksheepboybucky:

  • Martin Blower
  • An appalling actor 
  • Less concerned with the reputation of the village than he was with his sordid affair with Eve Draper

Eve Draper

  • She did have a very annoying laugh

George Merchant 

  • He had an awful house
  • We begged him in vain to make his residence more in keeping with the village’s rustic aesthetic

Tim Messenger 

  • Tim Messenger’s tenure as editor of the “Sandford Citizen” has been unbearable!

  • Our once great paper had become riddled with tabloid journalism! Not to mention persistent errors!

  • Listed Mary Porter’s age as 55
  • When she’s actually 53

Leslie Tiller

  • it seems she was set on moving away

  • We can’t have her sharing her green fingers with anyone else
  • Not least those heathens at Buford Abbey

this makes me want to cry

First of all, “…they were surrounded on all sides by echoes and images of themselves, in a world where image and object had not yet torn themselves apart” is one of the most poetic phrasings I’ve ever heard.

Second, here’s the original source, “What the caves are trying to tell us” by Sam Kriss.

Third, the original opens with:  “Every so often, I get the urge to drag someone into a cave, and show them something unspeakable.”

I had another point, but it got lost in the artful prose of this article.

I feel like “every so often, I get the urge to drag someone into a cave and show them something unspeakable” is something that’s okay for a paleolithic cave art expert to say, but like, absolutely no one else

OKAY SO HERE ARE THE PICS. Inspired by this post by @pipistrellus (@pipcomix)

These are 16th century Renaissance inspired hotpants, panelled with navy velvet with a red silk lining and hand-embroidered butt slogan, which I believe is like 300% historically accurate. They’re actually modelled off a genuine Tudor pattern but then made ridiculous because who am I.

Worn with thigh highs and a 18th C shirt cuz it was all I had to hand and frankly shirts don’t change that much lol.

Watermark is to my Instagram! @oh.papillon
