Twenty-Two Short Films About Wellington Wells: This Vicious Cabaret

This Vicious Cabaret

So Mod Interview: Nancy Drysdale

Wellington Wells’ Beautician to the Stars Nancy Drysdale dishes on her clients, career, and secret beauty tips!

Nancy Drysdale is sitting on a park bench in front of the Broadcast Tower. Uncle Jack has just started his gardening show, so Nancy has a few minutes to chat before she needs to get back in the studio, if we make it quick and bring her a cup of toasted chicory.

Nancy is 39 and is the premiere makeup and hair stylist in Wellington Wells. She first came to prominence after her styling for Victoria Byng at the opening of the Bolshevism Against Europe Gala turned Wellington Wells’ collective head. She has since collaborated with nearly every face we’ve come to know and love, from Nick Lightbearer to Sally Boyle. Currently, she is sole makeup and hair stylist to our Uncle Jack.

We sent frequent contributor Mary Ann Evans to chat with Nancy to get her insider perspective on Wellington Wells’ celebrities, fashion, and her own personal beauty tips.


So Mod: You know we have to ask: what’s Uncle Jack like?

This is going to be a startling question: Are you aware of the youtube ai age verification situation? If yes, could you help me get more awareness for this issue? If no, I would highly suggest looking into it as well for your benefit.The age verification will destroy online privacy and effectively censor the rest of the internet. We may lose the ability to watch videos that an ai determines to be of childish nature, whether it be a commentary of a tv show or a slime review video. The ai will deny you of your access to youtube, unless you present an id like a credit card or a drivers licence to regain access to watching any video. Even if you are an adult, it will not allow you access unless you surrender sensitive info about yourself. Should this spread, internet privacy and safety will be gone, and even a 1984 situation would take place (hoping not). The surrendered data can be exposed to the world, doxxing so many people and allowing scammed and hackers to steal personal info. I do not want to see this ruin anyone's love for anything that may seem childish to a faulty machine designed to somehow replace a parents' responsibility of looking after their own children. It is scheduled to take into effect on August 13th this month.I am afraid that this is what will shatter many fandoms of beloved childhood shows, games, books, and franchises. I just hope that at least the TTTE fandom will help step up against the loss of internet security and privacy. United we stand, together we fall. Let us stand and stand firm against this ruin.Cheers,A worried American who is a thomas fan

So like, there seems to be a wave of bad, privacy-violating legislation going around lately. Gonna be real in that I don’t really know how to fight that kinda thing effectively. Based on the UK one that just passed, kinda seems like the point is actually to stifle communication, since… [more]

for the WIP ask game... The Future Is Still Silver and Black? (original train fiction from you two sounds really interesting!)

So last year, I went up north to visit Ray. Ray lives in Chicago, which just so happens to have the largest railway museum in the United States, the Illinois Railway Museum.

At the IRM, we saw the Nebraska Zephyr, which is a streamlined stainless steel articulated trainset. Each of the… [more]
