I'm gonna be honest, whenever anyone mentions an event that happened between 1800 and 1960, my immediate go-to frames of reference are a) which Polar expeditions were going on at the time, b) what was Oscar Wilde up to at the time, and c) what was Benjamin Britten up to at the time
#having historical blorbos really fucks up your perception of historical timelines#was reading about Nansen's Fram expedition and saw the date 1895#and I was like Oh The Oscar Wilde Gross Indecency Trial Happened That Year! Small World!#this is because I'm normal & well adjusted
