I Love The Original Frankenstein Novel A Normal Amount

side-tummy sleeping with one leg curled up and the other straight out is top tier sleeping and you can’t change my mind.

oh my god. powerful. this is so true

so i didn’t do my homework on time

Productivity shouldn’t be my only value as a person, yet my education is defined precisely only by my productivity. I exist to produce exams, papers, works, homework, everything. The student, in Polish school system (as that is the only system I am qualified to critique because it Is the one that suffocates me) wants me to become my work, and the work in question, to become my only goal. Knowledge, I don’t know knowledge, I know all-nighters, bitter coffees and crying in a bathroom after a teacher laughs at your incompetence. I know lack of self esteem when you answer poorly. I know the clash between a good teacher and a good student in a bad setting. I know fleeting academic potential, I know premature wrinkles, I know depression I know back pain I know insomnia and I know that I still have to get up in the morning because my disgusting leisure would be seen as a failure in my education. I don’t know how to take care of my mental health. I truly don’t know how to make myself feel better when every part of the system tries to make me despise myself based on short-lived mistakes.

the other day i started writing an office romance but i quickly remembered that i have no idea what working in an office is like

DARK ACADEMIA MUSIC(NO LYRICS)(FROM YT)

crying in an old library on a rainy day

you’ve just killed the king and now your the reigning monarch

crying on your throne in regret

dark academia x royal core playlist

a playlist for waltzing with your enemy (dark royalty core)

you’ve fallen in with love with the prince you’re supposed to assassinate (dark royalty core)

a dark academia playlist to read to ☕️🍁🌙

a dark academia playlist 📜🍂🌙

you’ve fallen into the starry night ✧ 

I enjoy royalty core playlists the most but have added others as well. Enjoy romanticizing maths homework(or something hopefully less headache-ry) to the tunes ❤

Mathematician. Leader. Heroine. Remembering Hidden Figure Katherine Johnson

Tonight, count the stars and remember a trailblazer. 

We’re saddened by the passing of celebrated #HiddenFigures mathematician Katherine Johnson. She passed away at 101 years old. 

An America hero, Johnson’s legacy of excellence broke down racial and social barriers while helping get our space agency off the ground.

Once a “human computer”, she famously calculated the flight trajectory for Alan Shepard, the first American in space.

And when we began to use electronic computers for calculations, astronaut John Glenn said that he’d trust the computers only after Johnson personally checked the math.

As a girl, Katherine Johnson counted everything. As a mathematician, her calculations proved critical to our early successes in space travel.

With slide rules and pencils, Katherine Johnson’s brilliant mind helped launch our nation into space. No longer a Hidden Figure, her bravery and commitment to excellence leaves an eternal legacy for us all.

“We will always have STEM with us. Some things will drop out of the public eye and will go away, but there will always be science, engineering and technology. And there will always, always be mathematics.” - Katherine Johnson 1918 -2020 

May she rest in peace, and may her powerful legacy inspire generations to come! What does Katherine Johnson’s legacy mean to you? Share in the comments.
