the “dark academia” thing is hilarious because it manages to be both elitist and anti-intellectual. jerking off to pictures of ivy leagues and men in suits while claiming that quotes from the movie troy are in fact from the iliad. nice job, y’all.

assumes dracula isnt a pretty-boy celebrity
I know none of you will reblog this because you only care about your pretty-boy celebrities and your contrived “discourse”, but I just undid Dracula’s curse

"Because to be moved by something made by someone who has done something bad would mean that a bad person possesses the capacity to connect to us; that they haven’t, somehow, forfeited their humanity."

…having Hamlet and the Ghost communicating in sign language—one might describe it almost as their “private” language—also served to produce the (in my experience, unique) effect of putting the father-and-son pair in a sort of psycho-spiritual bubble, contra mundum; a bubble that excluded all others and highlighted Hamlet’s isolation. The relationship between father and son portrayed in most productions comes across as distant, severe and (on Hamlet’s part) rather worshipful, even awestruck. In this production the father/son relationship is portrayed as having been loving and paternally intimate, which makes Hamlet’s reaction to his father’s tale of murder all the more harrowing. [x] [x]

are you looking for a perfect playlists to accompany you during your yearning/studying/reading oscar wilde sessions?
oh boy, do i have playlists for you! all great, all aesthetic, all very dark academia.
///
[ you said i killed you. haunt me, then ]
https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2SG2cOUfK1zOzhJeLNjtiL?si=2B1RYtTQTamzzqJsfzYGfw
this is my go-to dark academia playlist (and my go-to playlist in general). makes you feel like you’re a character from a contemporary dark academia novel. the songs include e.g. “perfect places” by lorde, “from eden” by hozier, “achilles come down” by gang of youths and “boris” by lo-fang.
[ and all i loved, i loved alone ] 
https://open.spotify.com/playlist/4gCawRg08cMnqitFeJjjLP?si=MCTxuOqKQGGox9zDXtMvjg
this playlist fills my musical school kid heart with joy, because it’s full of classical music! i like to listen to it while i’m studying/reading/just chilling and trying to forget that i have a physical form. you can find some lovely composers here, like debussy, tchaikovsky, schubert and liszt.
[ i will love you if i never see you again, and i will love you if i see you every tuesday ]
https://open.spotify.com/playlist/7okHgt0X2YsDHUcu7MwdU8?si=jzP9SXCqTju8B1GUo13WPQ
this banging lemony snicket quote can only mean one thing - love songs! this songs make you yearn for a romance. the titles on this lovely playlist include “jackie and wilson” by hozier, “mystery of love” by sufjan stevens and “ophelia” by the lumineers.
[ beautiful girls ]
https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2E48ADp0UMHPs9FVAK5XXL?si=_2VYJCdgSkOyUyZs6zf4Fg
oh, what’s that? you’re in love with your straight best friend and want to listen to some cool wlw titles? i got you covered, my friend. on this playlist you can find e.g. “someone tell the boys” by samia, “girls” by girl in red, “sofia” by clairo and “she” by dodie. let the yearning begin!
[ zeus can go pee his pants ]
https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2jmbUuU0NLoWoHZs3NJiXN?si=bRmZlnkpTPq0xtb1bgJWVw
this is my go-to for those days when i’m just done with this world and want to listen to some cool guitar and screams. the titles include “poor boy” by the regrettes, “arabella” by arctic monkeys and “daft pretty boys” by bad suns.
///
holy hell, this post is long. have fun with the playlists! < 3
