📌since coming back to tumblr after 3 years my first take is the number of depressioncore posts is really blowing my hair back. everyone stop doing that and look at my pets instead. they are good girls who want you to be happy

#they very much did cancel Socrates

[jemmly]

also much like many ‘cancellations’ (derogatory) today, the whole thing was actually just initiated and stirred up by a few guys who had personal beef with socrates, and made a whole ‘corrupting the young’ argument to get a hate mob on their side

me @ people who write image descriptions many times larger than the thing they're describing: "Omit needless words,” advises William Strunk in the original edition of The Elements of Style, a bible for writers. He then says

"Vigorous writing is concise. A sentence should contain no unnecessary words, a paragraph no unnecessary sentences, for the same reason that a drawing should have no unnecessary lines and a machine no unnecessary parts. This requires not that the writer make all his sentences short, or that he avoid all detail and treat his subjects only in outline, but that every word tell."

THIS is the bear cave painting i was talking about, the line weight, the proportions, the fine details around the face, and the fact that this all had to be drawn from memory, idk man, it’s incredible to me. if i could meet one person from history it’d be the person that painted this bear 30,000 years ago
