cavetown music is a soft blanket and warm tea in your favorite mug and a cat sleeping on your lap and a tight hug and someone telling you to take deep breaths in soothing tones and looking at your reflection in the mirror and finally feeling like maybe things will be alright
I want weird math textbooks. Group theory textbooks in the style of a comic book. Real analysis textbooks written as a long dialogue between forest animals. Elaborate romantic fan fictions about the relationships between Lie groups and their corresponding Lie algebras.

Double the childhood trauma I love it
