A content warning : Please note, that there is use of racist terminology at the bottom of the first page. Also, victorian's sucked, fyi. An added note: If you spot racist stuff that I miss in any of my posts or that I have forgotten to add content warnings for (I'm sorry, blame the memory loss), please let me know and I will make sure to add them. I do not censor as we must confront history head on. It's an injustice to erase history, and try to downplay it, no matter how uncomfortable it can make us to acknowledge the harms done. Anyways, I skipped forward a few pages as it was just an advert for picture frames and I prefer to just stick to the parts of texts that actually teach stuff or show examples of things.I may post later a dump of some of the adverts after I've finished with all the teaching sections of this text. Specifically if there's any interest on those however. I've been feeling much better lately, but there's gonna be a brief pause on posts here as I will be out of town this weekend. Posting will resume sometime next week!
Part 1. Part 2. Part 3.
Happy Weekend! ~Tweedle
