I know I make fun of Pliny the Elder a lot, but I genuinely can’t stop thinking about this approach to taxonomy:

[There is a fish called the tursio, which bears a strong resemblance to the dolphin; it differs from it, however, in a certain air of sadness, and is wanting in its peculiar vivacity.]

Like, imagine someone describing an animal to you, but the only information they’ll provide is that it’s sort of like another animal, but much much sadder.

When my brother who just graduated law school asked me if there were any “gunners” in my program and i said what is that and he said its students who try too hard to impress the professor and get top grades everyone hates them and i said oh haha idk but inside i was like :( thats me actually

I have a homework assignment due tomorrow (today technically as its after midnight). I know this because it’s in the syllabus and the professor mentioned it last class. The syllabus calls for “a short description of your exhibition proposal including a bibliography (5-7 sources)” and the professor offered no further clarification that i can recall. I would like to email her to ask how long the “short description” should be and what format the bibliography should be in but unfortunately I already sent her an overly long email about my topic earlier this week and she replied very briefly ~36 hours later so obviously i cannot email her again. I would consult my classmates but i have never actually had a conversation with any of them bc we are all online. And the fact that there is nothing on any of the discussion boards and nothing in blackboard and no word from the professor makes me feel like everyone else heard and/or intuitively understood and/or isn’t worried about the issues of length and formatting and if i bring it up in any group forum everyone will think I’m some kind of tryhard loser. Which obviously i am but i am trying to be private about it.
