I’ve seen a lot of curious people wanting to dive into classical music but don’t know where to start, so I have written out a list of pieces to listen to depending on mood. I’ve only put out a few, but please add more if you want to. hope this helps y’all out. 🙂
a lot of these pieces apply in multiple categories, but I sorted them by which I think they match the most. have fun exploring classical music!
also, thank you to viola-ology and iwillsavemyworld for adding on! if you would like to add on your own suggestions, please reblog and add on or message me so I can give you credit for the suggestion!
Image found in a file folder in the historical society archives, under
“Miscellaneous.” Other items filed under “Miscellaneous” include
numerous manuals for appliances, somebody’s tax return (you know who you
are), an extremely moldy grilled cheese sandwich and a birdhouse
completely covered in duct tape.
The birdhouse was removed and filed more safely. The sandwich was thrown away.
I’ve worked in museums. This is not fanciful. In one memorable museum my fellow assistant curator and I found a pallet full of boxes of auctioned US government surplus brownie mix (expired), two palettes of white painters’ pants (size medium), several foot lockers full of summer dresses with handwritten labels pinned inside them reading “Mostly Useless”, artifacts wrapped in bizarre packing material including used lunch bags and used tissues, and a box of random office supplies that included an old, flat, dead toad someone had obviously peeled off a parking lot.
Twenty years on and I still have no idea what constitutes a mostly useless summer dress.
I cannot even tell you how much joy that fills me with.
Potoos are nocturnal insectivores, like the closely related frogmouths and nightjars (below), which accounts for their soulless eyes and nightmare mouth (all the better to see/eat you with, my dear)
Furthermore, potoos can independently control their pupil dilation, to maximize incoming light and hunt effectively. They can also compress the feathers of their head and bulge out their eyes to see in a complete 360 degree rotation without moving their head. They are highly adapted to their lifestyle, and are formidable predators.
HOW BOUT THEM PEEPERS: For an animal that relies on camouflage to hunt and not be hunted, those eyes are anything but subtle. In keeping with their ongoing theme, potoos have once again dealt with this in yet another way that is hypothetically really cool, but makes them look like colossal dorks.
please. someone send help. I can’t stop watching this vine.
Just wait until he gains traction. He’ll be moving at Mach 5. 😀
Had a cat that did this. Couldn’t get traction on his hind feet on our solid wood floors. We thought he had dysplasia or something else wrong with him but once he was on carpet he took off at Mach 5. Up until he hit more wood floor and alley oop’d onto his face.
