You're in love. There's no cure for that.

some sketches

aesthetic for @sleepystemkid

dedicating yourself to learning, always wanting to know more

anatomy sketches in the margins of your notes

keeping a list of documentaries you want to see

heavy engineering textbooks piled on your desk

a true crime podcast playing in the background while you go about your morning

reading biographies of Leonardo Da Vinci and other great visionaries

rewatching your favorite movies after a long day

a map pinned to the wall above your desk

getting books on your current interests from the library

closet filled with muted colors

a love of problem solving, working through complicated issues to reach a streamlined solution

hours spent studying in the library

drawing circuit diagrams in your notes

heavy book bags filled with texts on a variety of subjects

going down research rabbit-holes when you get interested in a new topic

growing plants by your desk

scrolling through recent news articles while you wait for a cup of tea to steep

Another language I wish I knew, Latin, to inspire.

The beauty of Over the Garden Wall. 2014, Patrick Mchale.

The academics

Nowadays. there are so many subcultures and I must say I like the academics the most. We all are in one way or another smart and strive for knowledge. We appreciate languages and cultures and all the classics. We relate to each other. And somehow we all just want to sit in an armchair with a cup of tea and read our novel. And that is why I feel like this oldfashioned comunity is the best.
