begging people to understand that there’s a difference between getting into handicrafts as a hobby and being forced to engage in constant busywork for the sake of persistence. yes I’m sure you enjoy weaving. im not sure you’d enjoy it if it was all you did every day to keep a family of fourteen clothed while they work fields. and I’m sure they’d enjoy gardening in their free time too, but after a few years of ploughing stones under the sun, they’d probably also wish they could just buy stuff from a store. cottagecore fantasies aren’t reality, and just because peasants had a better class position than you do doesn’t mean their lives were better than yours are now.

[VD: A tiktok of a buff, blonde woman in a green and cream dress and a white hairband. Text over the screen reads “I forget that I can’t wear cute cottagecore outfits because I’m jacked and I look ridiculous”. The video then cuts to a woman with brown hair and blonde highlights, who has a thick Slavic accent, and she says: “What is more cottagecore than being strong from ploughing fields and moving the tractors? You are beautiful strong woman. You are cottagecore.” /End ID]
