How the Von Trapp children are coping with the pandemic: A THREAD
LIESL: Breaks the rules on the daily. Sneaks out, ‘forgets’ her mask, will NOT wash her hands. Gets loads of conspiracy theories from her 'alt-right' boyfriend.
FRIEDRICH: Goes for a walk for EXACTLY one hour a day, and says ‘that doesn’t look like two metres to me’ very loudly and pointedly at anyone he comes across. Very skilled at making his tuts heard through two masks.
LOUISA: Shares things on Facebook about how scared she is that some shops are only taking contactless at the moment. Has drunk so much coffee while walking with friends that she can see through time.
KURT: Being very sensible and staying at home playing his Chromatica see-through cassette on a loop until he can dance to it in G-A-Y on the 21st of June. VERY confident about the 21st of June. Changed his Grindr bio to ‘just chatting for now’. God bless Kurt.
BRIGITTA: Has made her teacher cry over zoom at least four times. Loves it.
Marta: Everyone forgot about her and she’s been in her room for over a year.
GRETL: Won’t stop pointing out that there being seven children violates the rule of six. Everyone’s fucking sick of her.
It goes without saying that Maria made them all PPE out of curtains and has added Chris Whitty to her list of Favourite Things. Also the baroness keeps throwing house parties but it's okay because she has a tab for all the fines she incurs.

The Mother Abbess has had both jabs.
I regret to inform you that Uncle Max has started a podcast about marionettes
(speaking of nuns and podcasts, I co-host @queersgoneby where this week we’re discussing the incredible film Sister Act! Listen to us wherever you get your podcasts!)
People are asking about the Captain, and he’s volunteered as a vaccine coordinator (they wouldn’t let him bring a whistle though) and he’s loving it. He also has NO idea where Maria’s guitar has disappeared to so PLEASE stop asking him about it.
Sister Margaretta is a flat-earther.
The Bowing Lady loved Tiger King.
