blandrew [they/them] @acuthberto.bsky.social · 9hMy doorbell hasn’t worked in the year that I’ve lived here so I’m currently playing a game of “I hope my burger and my new shoes turn up at the same time so I don’t need to go downstairs twice” If I win, I get a burger and a new pair of Dr Martens that I got on sale 140
blandrew [they/them] @acuthberto.bsky.social · 18hAbsolutely just not handling this Monday stuff particularly well. I mean, fuckin look at the state of it. 5 days of alarms, and buses, and emails, and weather, and shoes, and belts, and messages from fellas like "hey, u accom??" not on a fucking Monday I don't discretebear4fun69 120

blandrew [they/them] @acuthberto.bsky.social · 29/09/2026Sometimes when I spend hours in the archive I get a wee treat. Today it is Ann Fanny Wombwell. 011
blandrew [they/them] @acuthberto.bsky.social · 29/09/2026I am spending my day going through every single Friday edition of an English language newspaper in Paris between 1870 and 1880 to just get one single mention of one person. I spent the long weekend transcribing Victorian Crown Office documents and going through the French Daily Burial records. 110
blandrew [they/them] @acuthberto.bsky.social · 26/09/2026I have been having a lovely time playing Skyrim again for the first time in like...6 years? With 3,700+ mods it's only been a somewhat janky experience. 010
blandrew [they/them] @acuthberto.bsky.social · 25/09/2026I’m in Edinburgh today for some archive research and I’m really hoping I’m allowed to photograph the documents because I slept about 3 hours and I’m in no position to scrutinise Victorian handwriting. 110
blandrew [they/them] @acuthberto.bsky.social · 23/09/2026In my 1st year history classes, there was a mature student who would manage to bring up the 1980s every week and he'd always, in a manner dripping with arseholishness, say "and, you weren't around for this, but" If only there were some field of study I could undertake for events I was not alive for 021
blandrew [they/them] @acuthberto.bsky.social · 22/09/2026I'm in Edinburgh on Friday at the National Records of Scotland if anybody fancies a wee lunch? I've managed to uncover three very important cases that might contain recorded testimony and even correspondence from one of the women I'm researching. It's just very exciting for me. 010
blandrew [they/them] @acuthberto.bsky.social · 22/09/2026Another day of emailing archives in England and being like UwU whever further affidavits rewating to affidavit 8240 in IR27-483-3, under s.32 of the Customs and Inwand Wevenue Act 1881 survive anywhere as owiginal documents UwU 110

blandrew [they/them] @acuthberto.bsky.social · 16/09/2026I had this moment on the bus yesterday, where instead of being like "fuck sake am oan a bus" I was just...genuinely...kind of like...happy? And I realised I've been...pretty solid this past year, in a way I wasn't for a LONG time. Don't get me wrong, the world is fucked and we're all doomed BUT 120

It’s for my reading playlist so it can’t blow the arse off you. Like the bit where it all drops in Rachmaninoff’s Piano Concerto No.2 is as metal as it can get. Xoxo 500
blandrew [they/them] @acuthberto.bsky.social · 12/09/2026Not to sound like a Victorian Newspaper, the very thing I actively research and challenge, but the decorum with which people conduct themselves in train stations speaks to their lack of character and decent, Presbyterian manners. Our right and Godly Queen Victoria would be apoplectic to witness it. 230

blandrew [they/them] @acuthberto.bsky.social · 08/09/2026A grown man just called me "baby" and I'm away to the clenny next door to jump in their massive rubbish compactor. I must clarify, not in a snazzy "that's showbiz, baby" kind of way, accompanied by hand gestures. In a way that made my body fold in on itself like a black hole formed in my guts. 020
