Let's take a trip down memory lane to when you were a teenager in school. You're sitting in English class, Pride and Prejudice is open in front of you, it's long, and you're struggling to stay awake. You stayed up all night talking to your crush on the phone, and you haven't read the book, despite having a test on it tomorrow. There's no way you can physically read the whole thing in one night even if you wanted to; the language is too complicated. It's not an Instagram post; it's looooong AF! If only there were a condensed version that you could skim through on your bus ride home after school, you would ace that test, no problem. Well, now it does; Book-A-Minute is a website that as "taken all kinds of great works of literature and boiled them down to their essence, extracting all the filler (and believe me, there's a lot of it sometimes). In just one minute, you can read entire books and learn everything your teachers will expect you to know." It's genius, it's hilarious, and I love these condensed literary classics I never read when I was younger. It's like scrolling through an Instagram feed, but Shakespeare and Steinbeck are the influencers.

Scroll through and unleash the inner bad child inside of you.

Don't mind us, just having a 48 hr Disney marathon. Anyone else feels like there's just something special about these all of Disney's classic 2-D animation films? And it's not just the nostalgia talking. At least, we don't think so. Old-school Disney didn't seem to be afraid to take these characters to a certain level of savagery and we greatly appreciate that.
Artist Gabriel Nardelli Araujo offers a very offbeat spin-off to his excellent series, The Canvas Project. This time he enjoys offering piles of burgers and fries to the characters of classical painting, bringing a large dose of saturated fats and junk food to the masterpieces of the art history.
There's nothing better than a good insult, especially if the recipient is clueless as to what the hell you just called him or her.
