iskra garak-bashir as ingres’s princess debroglie… on a thursday..
#work… my all time favorite Ingres painting#1850s features n hair sooooo cardassian#garashir adoption au#i needed lecture art to do n this is what my brain settled on!#the big hair also helps hide her scar.. inch resting#i think she does love a slutty little military style bodice thats the cardassian nat'lism garak has imbued in her

Daguerreotype of two seated gentlemen, each wearing a flower in the front of his waistcoat, c. 1850
#a pity that right side man is out of focus but on the other hand it does lend an additional air of mystery#wonder what are they holding—salt and pepper shakers? shot glasses but wooden?#and do the flowers—which appear to have been painted on after the image was taken—signify anything?#I mean most likely it means nothing at all but if we lived in a movie or novel it would be a CLUE#19th century#1800s#1850s#19th century fashion#1850s fashion#fashion history#historical fashion#men's fashion#menswear#19th century photography#daguerreotype#19th century men#vintage men

I can't stop thinking about people in the Crimean War period talking like the swells in contemporary John Leech cartoons. Just completely obsessed with this notion—
1850s Victorians really out here saying "YAS" and "Good gwacious!" and "I've had the misfortune to dwop my umbrellaw!"
DEUCED GRATIFYING.
#i could share like 200 more cartoons like this#this has been my weekend#1850s#victorian era#john leech#leech answering some of my 'how does it work' questions too#shaun talks#YA-AS#swells

In the Clip Studio Paint. straight up "putting that man in situations." and by "situations" I mean, haha, well. let's justr say. Killing him in hypothetical scenarios to examine his psyche.
#Treze doesn't generally fear death but I think the realization that he will die imminently does scare him#THIS ISNT CANON. don't worry Treze fans. He's ok#But haha. it could be. I joke.#Although some things do carry over into actual versions of his future self#His tattoos turning into a whole garden for one#And his eartips being cut off + the earring is also basically a guarantee for anything after like 1850#original character#oc art#oc#art#digital art#oc comic#polar.art#polar.ocs#oc.trezerius#cw: blood#cw: death#cw: eyestrain#bc of the little bit of rgb shift

If not a full suit would a waistcoat and tie also be convincing and slutty enough to draw some attention?
Oh yes most certainly. I love a good waistcoat on a man or woman. I think they are one of my favourite parts of a full suit, esp when paired with a white long sleeve collared top underneath. Im a huge fan of formal wear in general so a waistcoat would be more then sufficient to draw some attention, even more so if it's well made.
#I particularly like 1850s men's fashion for this reason#the waistcoats with the slightly puffy long sleeved collard tops... it does something to me#subby boys#gentle fdom#rosey replies

Do you have thoughts about Baby Henry and his Great Aunt Matilda?
Oh BOY do I.
I could literally go on and on forever but I should redirect you to this entire fic which is basically a coherent, carefully constructed, novel of those thoughts:
(Those with an astute eye will notice that I call Matilda Henry’s aunt, as in his fathers sister, as opposed to his great aunt. Maybe this is due to the copious amounts of inheritance fuckery brought up in the first chapter. Maybe I forgot because rereading nothing but shadows makes me sad. Maybe I can make it work and I’m going with it.)
#*smacking four year old Henry on the head* this bad boy can hold so many childhood symptoms of autism#look at him. he had no friends. didn't respond when people called his name. zero imitating of the adults around him.#would scream bloody murder if you tried to take something he liked away from him. absolutely did not babble.#probably didn't talk until he was like five. is picking up on no one elses emotions. never seems to waver from “:)” regardless ofenvironmen#anyways. I’m crawling all over the wall connecting random sentences from the books together with red string#Dissecting this shit to the core#Used my Jstor account to go study the York dialect in the 1850s#Which is different than just the accent btw#because I connected the dots#I can make that mistake work actually#Add it to “mistakes I make that actually make sense”#Gloria Branwell does not like her in-laws. Or her husband. Or anyone honestly#plus the inheritance fuckery happening brought up in the first chapter#So a lot of relationships are being being blurred#its worth noting that for all intents and purposes Henry did think she was his great aunt#Which is mostly because a) his mother hated her and b) she died when he was like ten#and therefore died way younger than one would assume she would have.#anyways I love that fic#of all my fics (despite the glaring mistake that I genuinely cannot believe I made what the fuck caterpillar) that one is like#the most detailed#most carefully built up#most “could be inserted into canon”

If you want to try something that'll make you laugh tonight, have you seen Cunk on Earth? I think youd like it. your day can't get worse!
Oh my God, how had I never seen this before, yall are constantly assaulting me with noted British shows 'Some Guy Wears A Coat Through Time series 26.5" and "We're Repressed but Georgian" and "Emotionally Distant Detective Embodies True English Heroism: Paperwork" and "We're Repressed but Edwardian" but never this???
I love it, reminds me actually of how Stephen Colbert, person, played Stephen Colbert, character in the hey day of the Daily Report. It goes stupid joke, stupid joke, and then SMACKS you with a clever one, like a constant cunttease. AMAZING.
I really want my wife to watch it: She loves pump up the jam and will DIE
#the work of a few straight white men blows beyonce out of the water. you're saying that on camera?#i died#philomena saying we broke with the uk because yall say pavement and we say sidewalk: she's right#the only episode that HURT was when she was talking about the American West#AIMED FOR AND HIT#THEY USED THE SAME COWBOY SHOT CLIP FROM TOMBSTONE#also the woman does SUCH A BRILLIANT SENDUP of a confidently incorrect English woman#i got mad. at her at one point! and then caught myself#THE TOP GEAR MUSIC WHEN LOOKING AT THE MODEL T#my God#i was a little annoyed that it focuses so much on America#like: okay and where were you during all this exactly? making friends?#but then i found out there's actually a whole series on britian so it makes total sense#though in the ignorant british woman category there are only two histories after 1850: british and American#so no fun spicy takes on a lot of stuff#i will probably also end up watching cunk on Britain

the town has a photographer too. maybe dude and i could get a few pictures. maybe some really cute ones if we can hold the pose long enough
#i still say this movie is set in the 1850s#look. i know they didn't figure anyone would be reading this far into it#but there's a wells fargo (established 1853)#they still use stagecoaches and no cars#the photographer does daguerreotypes. popular in the 1840s and 1850s but quickly obsolete after 1860#i WILL read into this#typewriter dings

It really makes me sick to see people giving money to penny weeklies when Franklin's expedition STILL has not been found 😭 There are good men out there trapped in unimaginable temperatures and literally all that's needed is a little more funding for another rescue mission yet all you guys seem to care about are your vulgar little stories...

Sorry for posting so much about Tom Gradgrind/James Harthouse from Hard Times lately. It turns out that I was getting arsenic poisoning from my wallpaper? Anyway I took a seaside stroll and I'm normal now. Check your walls y'all
#whyyy did i assume they were committing unlawful actions together like where did i even get that from lol #hard times isn't even that good by dickens standards tbh

I swear this website has 0 reading comprehension skills. Darwin NEVER claimed we "evolved" from apes like if one of you guys actually bothered to open his new book you'll see all his arguments are backed up by evidence. He actually makes a lot of sense
#sure there's nuance like i don't fully agree with all of it #but his general theory of natural selection seems pretty sound imo

Of course these are the finalists lmao this website is so predictable. Anyway vote Heathcliff if you dont i'm going to assume you're a phrenologist

It's not problematic to acknowledge the fact that Heathcliff was a brute like he literally killed dogs in case you forgot. #rochestersweep

I love the implication here that Rochester never did anything cruel either. He literally locked his wife in the attic and lied to Jane about it 😭 like that was a pretty significant thing that happened

Soooo glad I haven't actually moved yet. I know it means essentially wasting a month of rent (yikes!!!!) but I just checked the weather there and it's one of those "feels like -6°F" winters.
Though I suppose waiting this long means also having to eventually deal with moving in the snow... ughhh
#roz posts#ummmm does anyone wanna help me make up for that rent thing? it was $1850 and I'm not even there :(((((#(<- not expecting anything btw. please do not concern yourself with me if you aren't able. I will live)#(I just... had to pay in full on the 1st despite the landlord knowing I wasn't able to move until way later in the month)#(bc she had another tenant she was gonna give it to otherwise. and I needed to ensure I had a space bc I'm getting kicked out soon)#(when my friend and I are BOTH there it'll be 925 each. but we had to pay first/last at the same time so it was just a full payment each)
