hollis (they/them) currently studying classics and archaeology.
there’s a guy in my art history class who is the most annoying fucking dude in the world. he’s like some conspiracy theorist who keeps going “yeah, but how do we know the native egyptians built those monument?” even after a fucking two hour lecture on how they did it.
im not sure if he’s genuinely an idiot who thinks that some other society came and built the pyramids for egypt (he implied that romans did it. despite rome not even fucking existing at that time.) or he thinks its funny to get the professor frustrated trying to explain why he is wrong but honestly the distinction between those two options are meaningless because everyone else in that class paid hundreds of dollars to be there and he’s going “well i just think it’s interesting we have the names of the pharaohs and not the architects. kinda makes you think” despite the fact that we have the goddamned names of the architects!!!! the professor said them like a billion times because they’re going to be on the test!!!
today on my way to the bus stop i passed a group of three kindergartners and their parents heading to school. the dad went “hey, how about you guys race to the end of the block?” and they took off. when one of the boys realized he was going to come in dead last he immediately stopped and then dove into the curb so he could scrape up his knees and his dad would immediately pay attention to him instead of the winner.
and that’s a terrible, terrible thing for a five year old to do. but i kind of admired his dedication to manipulation.
all the kids on halloween are going to dress up as fortnite characters and shit and i’m not going to recognize a single fucking one of them
hey dipshit, wanting to fuck bowsette doesn’t count as monsterfucking. that’s just wanting to bang peach in a different outfit. fucking cowards.
god imagine being some russian in the late 1800s and hearing tchaikovsky’s Overture of 1812 with cannons for the first time. cause that already goes hard as hell before the ending. imagine already being excited and filled with pride over it and then the fucking military artillery goes off. i would lose my fucking mind.
