not me working on the masterlist and writing with a "1 hour of deadly Victorian era fashion trends" video in the background

those bitches were out there putting fucking nightshade in their eyes to give themselves big pupils and dyeing their dresses with arsenic to make them vibrant green (along with eating it in 'complexion wafers') and deliberately trying to catch tuberculosis to be pale and thin HOW DID ANY OF THEM MAKE IT OUT ALIVE HOW DID THE HUMAN RACE ADVANCE PAST THAT POINT

#mod post #times were wild #did I know half of this stuff already? yes #am I still watching it bc it's interesting and different creators cover different things? HELL YEAH #I watched this particular creator's 1 hour of Japanese urban legends video the other day and I'm love #next up is her video of 1 hour of unusual freak shows/circus acts/etc. HERE COME THE BOC VIBES #after I get all of Bravat's masterlist done I'll have gotten 13 characters done for the masterlist #and after that I'll take a break from doing that and get some actual writing done #m w a h #re: Victorian fashion trends like I almost get it beauty is pain blah blah blah #but like yo I cry if I have to be in uncomfortable clothing for more than an hour and I get anxiety about accidentally getting like.#a little mouthful/eyeful of fragrance mist #I cannot imagine being so vain as to regularly and intentionally do something that was causing me pain and affecting my health #Victorians were fucking wild man dfakfjadkla my bafflement almost crosses into some respect for being so fucking hardcore
