I remember reading this short story in middle school about a little girl who moved to a planet in another solar system, far away from earth, where it does nothing but rain constantly for years on end. She would tell the children what it was like to stand in the sun, what it looked like, how it made her feel, but none of the children believed her. In fact, many of them were jealous, and made fun of her appearance because moving to a planet with no sunshine caused this girl to lose the life inside her. When the day of sunshine finally came, the children locked the girl inside a closet, and forgot about her. I still have so many feelings for this little girl, and I read this short story almost 20 years ago. I don’t even remember the title.
All Summer in A Day by Ray Bradbury. It is one of the saddest things I have ever read.

I’ve seen some background noise pages around tumblr like rainymood, but I don’t think I’ve really seen this page recommended on tumblr.
The plus of this page is without a doubt the huge list of sound machines that you can open in several tabs and mix as you like, ranging from natural sounds like rain and waves to industrial noises to relaxing tunes like in utero. It’s suitable as background noise for work as well as for relaxing and sleep.
Also recommended:
- soundrown (10 noises)
- rainymood (rain)
- Coffitivy (background chatter, also available as app)
- SoundsToSleepTo (6 noises)
- Ultimate Study Playlist | Part 2 | Part 3 on 8tracks (8+ hours of film scores each)
- Most relaxing tune according to scientists
MONSTERFRIEND PROJECT
+++Imagine you had your own personal monster bound to you. A monster to emulates you in some way. The idea of this is to have people design there own personal monster, much in the same vein as pokemon and digimon. The monsters can be gruesome but not too much so (i.e. extremely gory). And they can be humanoid but not blatantly human, animal like but not just a carbon copy of a real life animal. Max size is as large as a building, minimum is small enough to perch on your shoulder comfortably+++
+++examples of personal monsters+++
+++There are different categories of monsters but within those categories its limitless. Using earth also applies to plants and metal, wind can be storms, fire is also magma, etc etc. Use your imagination! You can also combine two types, but that’s the limit! As for space and spirit, try to think of its like magic and ghosts.+++
+++Different types+++
+++example of a filled monster sheet+++
Stat system is very similar to fallout, so if you HAVE played fallout it should familiar to you. If not, its very simple. 1 is the lowest, 10 is the highest. You get 5 points to allocate as you wish and you can subject or add points to customize your monster. Each stat starts at a 5 which is approximately average. A monster has to have 3 intelligence to be able to speak with humans that aren’t there human bond.
