Listen to the sound of wikipedia
This is a way to listen to changes to wikipedia. You are literally listening to knowledge being added to the world.
Pluck sounds are an addition, strings are subtractions, and the pitch says how how big the edit is. My heart shudders at this I love it so much.

Exactly two (2) students in the history of Hogwarts were brave enough to call Minerva Mcgonagall “Purrfessor” to her face.

the most heartbreaking part of hamlet really is the whole “goodnight sweet prince” part because when horatio says “and angels sing thee to thy rest” he is using the intimate form of thou, and it’s the first time he ever does it. hamlet consistently uses the intimate form of thou for horatio (only when they’re in private though, which – if shakespeare intentionally wanted to give their relationship homoerotic subtext, which he totally did – shows that hamlet wants to keep his romantic love for horatio a secret to the greater public) but horatio, being the respectful person he is and also given the fact that if he were to use the intimate form of thou it would pretty much be a romantic confession, never ever uses thou. except when after hamlet dies. when it’s too late.
here hamlet is, dying in horatio’s arms, asking horatio if he ever held him in his heart. and horatio doesn’t get a chance to reply. hamlet dies. only then does horatio realize his mistake of not confessing sooner
you guys have no idea of how much I daydream about time travel
Hamlet: You came up to my desk and said ‘This may sound weird, and there's no reason for me to know this, but that mixed berry yogurt you’re about to eat has expired.’
Horatio: That was the moment you knew you liked me?
Hamlet: Yep.
Horatio: ...Can we make it a different moment?
Whoever can tell me what they think Hamlet’s favorite meme would be (and gives a good, solid explanation) will get a great prize. Promise.

going into second hand bookstores and seeing the worn out paperback you’ve been trying to find for months and finding an odd bookmark inside the musty pages feels like divine providence
