RonSupportsYou<p>When Russia invaded Ukraine, Pres.

merigold<p>A friend told me she had planned to get a classic pork pie hat for summer, which brought me to a short wikipedia trip, which led me further to a listicle on &quot;Light academia films and shows on netflix&quot;, because someone wore a hat like that in a movie that was described as &quot;light-academia&quot; style, referencing the article.</p><p><a href="https://collider.com/best-light-academia-films-tv-series-streaming-netflix/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">collider.com/best-light-academ</span><span class="invisible">ia-films-tv-series-streaming-netflix/</span></a></p><p>As you probably know already, I got <a href="https://c.im/tags/adhd" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>adhd</span></a> and too much work on my hands at the moment, so let me react to the listicle right now and get some good chemicals out of it.</p><p>1. <a href="https://c.im/tags/Bridgerton" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Bridgerton</span></a> is not &quot;academia&quot;, it&#39;s porn for people who don&#39;t like to admit they watch porn.
