today i finally put together a “book” that one of my classes wrote together last year and felt it was necessary to bring back this classic not-at-all-prompted contribution from a then 7 year old: “I got stuck in a castle. I was in its jail. They did not feeded me all I had was a porta potty. I was in jail because I didn’t even know there were taxes there. Except I lied. I read a lot about England and I decided I did not want to pay taxes.”
please appreciate that this child was free to write about literally whatever she could imagine about herself time traveling and she wrote about being jailed for tax evasion in the middle ages
given that people are already noticing how tumblr dorks are turning top and bottom into basically gendered stereotypes my prediction is that the next bastard thing this dying website will do is finally reach the peak of its obsession with the western zodiac and turn it into a legitimate system of social hierarchy
