❤️ Burgundy lowboy toilet my beloved ❤️

tmp fans REALLY need to start reading who is writing the episodes because I'm sick of seeing "oh silly Jonny Sims not being able to name people" or "hah classic Alexander j newall horror" when it is very clearly in the episode description or in the transcript that its a guest writer 😭

Hey! I'm the guy with the silly user!!

Hiya!

I'm Orchid (or ople or topleft or anything)! I'm a 19 y/o trans man from the midwest

I sometimes write and sometimes draw!

I have a lot of interests including old American housing design/decor, and Old book collecting but right now I'm fairly engrossed in Philza Hardcore lore and Philza Minecraft

Rn I've been drawing a College AU of Philza's Hardcore Deities and will post stuff here!

Boundaries!

This is mostly just common sense rules (just treat me like a person) and I hope to never have to actually outline things here!

Specifically I just want to say that I'm just a nervous teenager on the internet and to please not put me on any pedestal!

"What is significant about your user?"

What a great question that someone might ask! My user is a joke from a Philza Minecraft stream from 2021!

Philza was looking for item frames and was asking chat for help. Chat had no clue what he was looking for and everyone thought he was looking for tropical fish. This caused people to spam top left food chest every time philza looked for something on stream for months.

So! I made it my user to mess with him!

Here's the clip!

The Sketch-Book of Geoffrey Crayon, Gent.

By Washington Irving

Published by The F.M. Lupton Publishing Company

This is my oldest book that I own but it is far from the rarest

The F. M. Lupton Publishing Company was known for republishing older works with cohesive covers for personal or commercial libraries. You can find more popular titles published with this same cover- it was an easy and cheap way to get literature. This book, for example, was in a hotel!

Dating this book was a pain because it doesn't have a date inside- BUT upon researching I found that the cover, publishing name, and address help holding down a date for this book.

Firstly the cover, the cover starts out date around 1901-. This was one of the later covers adorned with gold and colorful ink

Next, the name of the publishing company changed in 1902 to Federal Book Company and the addressed changed in 1902 as well.

Dating this book to be from 1901-1902 which it's quite cool :D

The content is nothing too interesting- it's a collection of short stories. The only story I know of from this work is The Legend of Sleepy Hollow- although I've never read it.

Five Plays of SHAKESPEARE

Copyrighted 1926 by Harcourt, Brace, and Company, Inc.

I got this one alongside Personal Hygiene Revised at a Thrift shop!

It's a literature text book containing the plays

Merchant of Venice

As You Like It

Julius Caesar

Macbeth

Hamlet

Nothing too fancy to say about the content! It's just Shakespeare plays for student consumption!!

The interesting quirks about this book that drew me to it is the writing on the inside!

(I haven't censored anything because that defeats the purpose also this book wasn't originally near me)

As would anyone while reading Shakespeare for school, the inside is filled with doodles & signature practicing. Also! This book was owned by someone who graduated in 1931! (Also 1932-1933)

dangerous times when lit students find cheap and labyrinthine second-hand book shops

remembering that I wasn't reading the transcripts for tmagp ep 11 and was super confused thinking that Alice was waking up on the side of the road after meeting bonzo

It's not my fault British accents are so similar 😭

Personal Hygiene Revised

By Frank Overton

Copyrighted in 1913 by Frank Overton

Later Republished by American Book Company (More on that later)

I got this book at a Thrift Shop! It was one of the first of my collection and kick started this interest!

The book was owned locally (which is why there are blocked out writing) in 1930 by a 6th grader!

It's a text book regarding personal hygiene and is focused towards boys specifically. I truly haven't had the time or drive to read it front to back BUT!

I did notice something in the section Stimulants And Narcotics. It refers to the negativity of "strong drink" and mentions that it is illegal. With this information I realized that the book was originally written by Frank Overton but when the 18th Amendment was instated the book was revised by the American Book Company to include references to the Prohibition. Due to not having the un-revised version I do not know if the negativity towards alcohol was original.

I've attached pictures below! Let me know if you have any questions! I can look throughout the book to fact check content of biology and sickness!

(Ps. It also has some Christmas stamps :o)

[topleftfoodchest]

I'm going to slowly post my book collection :o

I usually grab old books of fact so expect to see outdated text books :D

YIPPEE

MEOW

Who knew that using a reference and actually practice would improve my art !
