dark academia but it’s online school

- waking up early in the morning to watch the sunrise, even though you don’t actually need to

- staying up late to read or paint because you don’t have to get up early

- handwriting assignments that should be typed and submitted digitally

- having a coffee cup with you, rather than a thermos because you don’t have to take it anywhere

- still getting ready and dressed so that you can feel focused on your work in the mornings

- emailing your teachers to see if they have any extra reading related to the topic

- turning in all of the assignments for the week earlier than the rest of your class because you wanted to finish them early

- not doing any assignments for the week because you were too interesting in researching about different planets or the deep sea

reading classic lit for fun: immersed in the book. enjoying myself. transported to another world where i am in fact a greek nymph

reading classic lit for an assignment: i read a page. a minute has passed. i read another page. an hour has passed. i spend the day trying to read one chapter and only once i’ve finished do i realize i understood none of it. 0/10

renaissance ?

I’m not sure if this counts, but the skeletal marble tiles on the floor of the Chiesa di Santa Maria della Vittoria. It’s a work of art my mind often fixates on.

If not this, then a particular artist I’ll always adore is Caravaggio, a renowned classical painter from the mid-1500s to the early-1600s.

You don't have to be white to be a goth. You don't have to be white to be punk. You don't have to be white to be cottagecore. You don't have to be white to be Dark academia or any other aesthetic.

when I was younger I didn’t understand why “may you live in interesting times” was considered a curse in ancient greece.

I get it now.

LISTEN / Let’s get into it … Let’s get into it, let’s talk about the Black musicians that inspired Andrew Hozier-Byrne, and let’s not ever pretend again that he got his flair for jazz and blues from white women, thank you so very much! Y’all have a good time listenin’ to the roots, okay!

[fluoresensitivearchived]

let’s revisit since we’re talking about the Black artists who hozier is constantly paying tribute to

Jul 21, 2020 - In an attempt to motivate myself to study ecclesiastical latin I purchased these old notebooks that belonged to a French Cardinal(?) in 1890s.

The following pieces of morbid art are by Nicola Samori, a 35 year old Italian artist. He says “My work stems from fear: fear of the body, of death, of men. I think my nature as an artist is something like feeling hopeless. Works are just temporary shelters and painting is a leisure place where you can conceal yourself.”
