if you’re having a bad day, here’s a cute little marching band

this actually made me cry with joy also one of them is eating noodles

It just keeps going and getting better. *^^*

Me two minutes ago: “cry with joy? an animation of cats playing instruments made someone cry with joy?”

Me now: (sobs into a tissue) “OH MY GOD THAT ONE IS PLAYING TWO RECORDERS AT THE SAME TIME” (blows nose)

CAT PARADE IS BACK

there are SO MANY cute little details in this

So I was looking for the full version of this video cause i always get sad when this one cuts off the ending and–

not only has the original creator made an HD version,

they also made a reanimated “deluxe” version! with even more cute easter eggs!

Hello!
I replied to this post on Reddit today, trying to compile all the dark academia books I could think of, and then thought that maybe all of you here might find it useful too, so here you go. It is a very, very broad list, a mix of classic and contemporary literature, and there is no set criteria besides having a dark vibe (this includes murder and crime but could just be the way it’s written as well) and portraying an academic setting, most of the time from the student’s point of view. I haven’t read all of these myself and so I can’t judge on quality, but hopefully this will inspire people to add on to it in the comments.

Here you go!

The Lessons by Naomi Alderman
Truly, Devious by Maureen Johnson
The Secret History, Donna Tartt
If We Were Villains by M. L. Rio
Maurice by E. M. Forster
The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde
Possession by A.S. Byatt
The Truants by Kate Weinberg
The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie by Muriel Spark
Vicious by V. E. Schwab
The Raven Cycle by Maggie Stiefvater (tangentially related)
A Little Life, Hanya Yanagihara
Brideshead Revisited by Evelyn Waugh
Never Let Me Go by Kazuo Ishiguro
The Likeness by Tana French
The Rachel Papers by Martin Amis
Ninth House by Leigh Bardugo (coming out tomorrow!)
Jane Eyre by Charlotte Brontë
The Lake of Dead Languages by Carol Goodman
Oleanna by David Mamet
Special Topics in Calamity Physics by Marisha Pessl
The Marriage Plot by Jeffrey Eugenides

Other classics that are not Dark Academia in content, but which I would include in a list of the DA canon:
The Iliad and The Odyssey by Homer
Shakespeare’s plays (Macbeth, Hamlet are good ones to start with)
A Separate Peace, John Knowles
The Bacchae, Euripides
Greek tragedies (a good one to start with is Antigone, very popular and staged many a time)
Leaves of Grass by Walt Whitman
Beat generation literature
Jane Austen’s books (light academia, anyone?)

This is like a commercial for the dangers of teaching kids physics

When people say boys will be boys I wish this was the sort of thing they meant.

As foolish as the idea was it impressed me on some level

It looks like the kitten straight up pressed the wrong button.

I have finally found a post that perfectly encapsulates my gaming style.

workshopping a YA novel where the government divides everyone into social classes based on whether they like cilantro or think it tastes like soap

image

on their 12th birthday everyone has to try cilantro for the first time in front of the whole community and report back on their opinion so they can be properly categorized and she says “it’s okay i guess” and she gets dragged offstage by the pro-cilantro government militia

image

groundbreaking concept! how do we shoehorn it into a love triangle

guy from an island where they’ve never heard of cilantro

tshifty:

part of me is like “what the fuck do you mean next week is august when last week was mid april” but then the other part of me is like “approximately 7 years have passed since december 2019 and july 2020″ so that’s fun
