Tonight on Drowsy Historian, you are not a Dickensian caricature or a nameless extra in a morality tale. You are a real human being caught in the gears of Victorian England’s most merciless institution—the workhouse. From the cold stone floors to the flavorless gruel, the soul-crushing sermons to the silence between beatings, you endure the bureaucracy of survival, one damp, aching morning at a time. There's no escape, no moral triumph. Just exhaustion. Just existence. Just you.
