Skarloey comes to a realization

Whenever people ask why I’m interested in the Victorian era I don’t quite know how to tell them that I grew up on ‘children’s’ books about a Victorian foundling who falls in love with her foster brother aged five, wants to run away to the circus, endures many hardships as a foundling, reunites with her birth mother who has changed her name to be with her daughter as a cook at the Foundling Hospital, is sent to work for a writer who tries to steal her life story to write a book, falls in love with a butcher’s apprentice, watches her mother die before becoming employed at a freak show as a mermaid and exposing a fake psychic, goes to the seaside to meet her biological father, runs away to the circus to become a ringmaster, escapes said circus with an abused acrobat child who was sold by her father to the circus, joins a music hall as a fake ventriloquist with said child, goes back home to her foster family for her foster father’s funeral and then her foster brother’s wedding, where the brother kisses her and tries to convince her to elope (she refuses - side note, another foundling was placed with that family and the brother tried to play out the same thing with that poor child) then becomes an actress with the acrobat child. Jacqueline Wilson was something else, and the Hetty Feather books are still my special interest.

she needs some pus- PASTRY 🌈

What is it with characters that were introduced in Enterprising Engines staring lovingly into the eyes of their saviours?

Somebody tries to fight god and fails

Diesel 10 did that canonically in TATMR and look how that turned out.

bonus Ariana with Ariana

it's kinda terrifying to see people forget about the events that have transpired in gaza since oct 2023. every tragedy that once created mass outrage was soon forgotten as another tragedy took place.

it's just so disturbing to realise that no palestinian has emerged from this unscathed. everyone has a family member they lost, a friend they miss dearly, a home they long to return to but cannot because it no longer exists.

a very huge part of gaza is rubble. the recent ceasefire has allowed people the chance to attempt to rebuild their lost homes. my friend alaa is one of them. she wants her children to live under a proper roof. please consider helping her out. her fundraiser is verified.
