#Yes i DO want to learn about gangs in 15th century London. This is not at all what I SHOULD be reading about rn but who cares

I love reading incredibly specific academic papers for subjects I know absolutely nothing about. Here is a seasoned expert in their field, presenting a detailed and impeccably professional report on the results of several years’ worth of research. And here i am in the back, pajamas covered in pringle crumbs, cupping my hands around my mouth to yell: “Awesome. Great work. Gotta admit, half of that flew right over my head, but what i DID catch was fascinating. Tell me more about the role of earthquakes in early Zoroastrian cosmology”
