Warnings: references to period racism – in that I say it exists and that people would use words that decent people don’t use these days, poverty, malnutrition, drunkenness, references to pre-antibiotics tuberculosis, illiteracy, corporal punishment at school

One of the ways Ursula Vernon deals with trolls on twitter is telling stories about her (fictional) Uncle Sven. I decided to follow her example, and this is the story that resulted. While I used some bits of my actual family as very vague inspiration, everyone and everything in this story is fictional and probably wildly inaccurate to the supposed time period, whatever that is.
