The Ornamented Being

Dear Stalker,

I woke up to a nastygram in my inbox from you claiming that I “stole” this image from your tumblr. Which makes me giggle because I’ve had you blocked for months so please don’t flatter yourself.  I understand that you are young but honestly this is just childish. 

So to straighten out this baseless accusation that I “stole” an image that may I remind you belongs to a museum, it’s from an online forum about Regency fashion. They linked to the museum therefore I linked to the museum.You don’t like it?  I don’t really care.

Obviously there will be outfits that you have already posted that I am going to post and vice versa. That’s what happens when you post the entire museum collection. I post themes. You post the entire online database.

The important thing to remember in situations like this is that you don’t OWN a single image so get off your high horse and quite preaching to the choir.

You are the one who stalks my blog not the other way around.

Much love,

  Me

I hate when people reblog one of my posts just for the sake of adding a snarky little holier-than-thou comment. 

ESPECIALLY when the person doing the reposting is putting it on a blog that has absolutely nothing to do with history.

So to clarify things: Yes, I loathe Mary Tudor. No, I’ve never met her but I also loathe Hitler and I’ve never met him. 

So do everyone a favour and stop judging. We have enough of that in our everyday lives without having to deal with it from you on tumblr.
