Presenting data that quantified a fact already widely accepted as true, scientists at the University of Michigan released a study Wednesday proving that 97% of all sounds were infuriating. “A meta-analysis of research across the entire field of acoustics confirms that nearly every noise produced, whether artificial or natural, is completely enraging,” said the study’s principal investigator, Alan Dearden, who tapped his pen so goddamn incessantly as he spoke that reporters wanted to run from the room screaming.

It's the Royal Academy of Art Young Artist's Summer Show. One of my favourite exhibitions of the year. Like. Not only are the older kids insanely talented, the younger ones' artist statements will just punch you right in the face.

Gift link: Trump administration is destroying Head Start by ending all the rules that mean Head Start programs have to be good and safe.

Another reason to scream and scream!

Head Start was based off the results of the Perry Preschool Study, the positive effects of which continue to this day, and which demonstrated that access to high quality preschool experiences can be extraordinarily effective in helping kids overcome the effects of racism and poverty. It absolutely did not say that shitty daycare gets you fucking anything and, having spent most of my adult life around the people who led this study, I can tell you, in at least in the opinion of the study’s researchers, it’s an argument that you literally have to spend the money for high quality preschool or you’re just fucking over little kids. Let’s fuck up life for some fucking toddlers! Fucking Moloch Regime continues!

The Hades scene in The Odyssey was the biggest visual let down imo… after many scenes of gray beaches, the underworld is also a gray beach… okay

I need a video essay about what is going on with Toni Adeyemi… no I haven’t read any of her books…

[euphonetic]

I think people are completely mischaracterizing Emily Wilson’s critique… she’s not saying it sucks because it’s unfaithful, she’s saying it sucks because it lacks emotional complexity.

it brings me no pleasure to say this but i feel it’s very possible that leopold and loeb were the first yaoi rpf to fascinate and titillate the world (or at least america) at scale

the replacement of websites with apps sounds so backwards when you actually describe it. like hmm you have to download an entire program onto your device each time you want access to a portal, where it takes up storage indefinitely. somebody should invent an app where you can "browse" any portal just by typing in its address... 🥴

I spent the past 3-ish years reading basically everything on an ereader because I was so itinerate and now when I read a real book I don’t know how to hold it comfortably. wtf

These remind me of this drawing by Franz Kafka from the 1900s. We've been feeling this way for a long time.
