–if sending anything to PO Box, please mark as ‘gift’ so I’m not hit with customs charges! I appreciate everyone who takes the time, but customs charges are super hard to sort out via a PO Box and can sometimes result in the item being returned to sender before I get it sorted :-/ so yeah, mark as gift and all should go smoothly!โ

Poor George. Maybe he just wasn't very good at expressing himself, like a Mr D'Arcy type figure! These are wonderful! โบ

Sexy…answer you dms and maybe you wont be single anymore… if you don't answer people then you cant find out who's a douch bag and who want to chatwith you๐ …sexy goth and book writer answer your fans…I'm a fanboy and still want a date!
Winton Green, is, a, prison….I am worried…lol Americans steteo typically are Europeans…Dorian havent you visited Paris' Luve museum or even London's temple like museum near Covent garden? Hmmm your insane London is the place to be literally surrounded by history and innovation…
As someone who went to Europe I can tell you your wrong about preserving history…and if you lived in London and never visited Covent Garden and the museums and historic buildings nearby you need to get your ass back up there for a weekend…and stop moping around your too young and pretty for moping…lol for all you know you Irish, Danish, and some Nordic…Britain was colonised and conquered…ugh your a silly beauty…Bkack hair was a Danish thing, they cam to Ireland and the coast, Nords did too…and eventually the Gaol aka french…you are the decent of several European countries…if you can find a pure blooded English person…I'd laugh hysterically. .
Awesome love it
You have a great day
I recognized that cliff immediately from your earlier video even though I have only seen it from the view of the train going down its side!
I love old letters, a little look into what things where like.
One of my favourites wasn't a letter but a stone tablet from a few thousand years ago detailing a customer service complaint over the quality of the metal purchased.
It's interesting and sometimes sad how areas change, there's a few local, one local book spoke of a man in the Victorian times being written off work for a week and prescribed a stay in the countryside by the doctor. Not only was it amazing that a doctor would do this, but this 'countryside' now houses one of the poorest areas in the country.
Really enjoyed your comments on Americans. Not many folks from across the pond realize that we Americans do come from folks who were either restless, desperate, or otherwise driven by circumstance to start new lives. Those traits are still present within us, and that is part of what makes us different.
Postcards were the Facebook of their time perhaps *Hmmmmm Deep Thoughts*…..
Missed you!!!!
Hay Dorian since you mentioned the whole thing with not checking your inbox I hope you see this. but I'm an artist from Canada and I was hoping of painting a picture of you, and I was wondering if you would be okay if I posted it on Instagram when I'm finished.
I really enjoyed hearing your perspective on being American. I am, and my family has always had an obsession with heritage (especially since my dad was a history teacher at one point). I married a Korean man and moved my entire life to South Korea two years ago. It's given me a lot to think about in regards to where I come from. I can't help but wonder what any of my 'descendants' will think of the little pieces of my life that may get left behind — and where those pieces might wind up geographically. Great video as always, xx
Love you, Dorian. But 21:19, I am American and my ancestors weren't adventurers. They were slaves.
Your excitement over the sounds was fucking great. That kind of stuff made me follow you in the first place, I relate to it so much lol.
I would love if you answered my dm even of it takes a while lol you know about so much interesting stuff. Do you know about tulpas?
Missed your vidos how are u doing
I made a new vido on my u tub chanal Greek vampy it got 1 veiw

The thing weโre ur saying things start to manafest from ur thoughts reminds me of the never ending story. How everyoneโs creations come to life

The owl reminds me of footsteps in the snow…like the soft crunch
I love your makeup in this one! I feel the contacts espically make the look! I really like listening to you whenever Im bored or researching stuff in my spare time.
WOW!. So cool you liked the cards I sent you and that they inspired a video.I called my wife in to see and she totally freaked.I feel like a real nerd but you know what, I am a fan,what can I say.I like the early morning trips to the woods dancing in the dark and hearing the king's english. will be Sharing on facebook.
Maybe one of ur spirits is Lilly. Maybe she wanted her things home
You make the best waffles. <3
That was so charming and comforting <3
I don't know if she's related at all but there's an artist with a studio in Ashover called…Lily Hammond!
And I'd love to find a bunch of postcards like these – I really should start trawling the flea markets again when Coronavirus buggers off.
Something that's just jogged my memory, when you mentioned we in the UK not having such a regard for old correspondence, after my Dad died a couple of years ago my partner and I were emptying out the house to hand it back to the council. This included a garden shed, an outhouse and a coal-hole. While Ian was taking the things out of the outhouse he found a metal tin that was falling apart with rust and in it were some letters to my Dad when he was much younger, from a girl/woman (I'm not sure who she was or her exact age. She may have been a student PE teacher from some of the letters). I'm not sure if she was an old girlfriend or just a pen-pal and I'd love to try and find out, but I've no idea where in the country her descendents will be now or even if she herself is still alive… It was quite sweet, reading some of them. I really ought to get them out again and see if I can trace her family while I'm still waiting to go back to work… And years ago I found a letter that my Mum had written to my Dad once while he was away with the TA (the TA, or Reservists as they're called now, played a massive part in his life because he was unable to join the Regular Army). Anyway, in the letter, Mum described "crying blue tears" for him while he was away because she missed him so much (the letterwas written in blue fountain pen ink). It's funny, because my parents never came across as romantic people in the conventional sense. I wish I still had that letter too though.
Had an ex gf… back from… god… aught6-07 (I was very young at the time, and she was older than I. Online affair) if only… by some chance I had still "met" this girl when letter writing was in vogue, I would have STILL had all those correspondences… as it stands, they are lost to time on some goddamn forum websites inbox thing. Crying shame… oh well… passing notion.
The milk Thief at the end ๐
The poor milkman must be like wtf going on but funny to read 1st thing in the morning ๐คฃ
Keep imagining that i like women who wear black ! Just keep imagining this .
I've been craving a new Dorian video and listening to this, this morning, while getting ready for the day has been absolutely perfect! ๐โค x
I'm curious if "bed" meant eternal slumber… death. This video is superb. Make more like this! I especially love how they went from your country, to America, and back.
Astral plane pretty much sounds like a deep DMT trip. ๐
The laughing got me ๐
I have been to Bridgnorth,,!! I am from Shropshire and lived in Telford, Shrewsbury and Oswestry where I was born x glad you're back Dorian x missed you
I'm an astral traveller and I will tell you the thought forms are true!
