“I am bored of nationalism and I’m bored of racism. It’s over. Nationalism, religion, all these regressive things, they’re over. We can’t carry on in the way that we’re carrying on…
We’re from Manchester right, and where we used to hang out, the actual place that we used to hang out, someone put a bomb in there tonight and then killed a bunch of kids, who were going to a fucking show in Manchester.
I don’t need to be educated on fucking anything to say that, that is fucking bullshit and I don’t know what it’s in the name of so I apologize if it’s not in name of religion or nationalism but these are the things that keep happening and I am fucking pissed off about it, and I am sorry.”

If the link doesn’t work, you can go to the British Bee Keepers Association (BBKA) website and look for ‘Adopt a Beehive’ which will take you to their adoption page. They have different hives all over Britain as options! I am so happy that I’m not the only one excited by this discovery!
she is so adorable and has such great expressions I sometimes forget she is a pin up girl
She is sexy as fuck.
THIS BODY IS SEXY AS FUCK.
Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise.
*softly with feeling* she’s beautiful
This has to be Depression era WW2. She’s wearing bikinis made from flour sacks, which people made clothes from because they were shit poor and companies decided to put floral prints and colors on their bags to make those improvised clothes.
You also have to appreciate that she’s a hard worker, growing her own food, fixing her own plumbing and still retaining her femininity. That’s definitely a sign of the times.
There’s another post about Hilda I can’t find right now, but yeah, it’s spot on, she was popular during the war and was created to be more a “girl next door” type.
@blackteaandbones FOUND IT. This is the series we were goin’ on about on the way to Kingston.
what I love best about Hilda is that you can learn this about her personality just from a handful of moments with her and you can’t help but love her. She’s kind and indulgent and sweet and has a good sense of humor
