#In my head I'm a lady professor at Cambridge who is probably a murder suspect in a Golden Age Detective Story

Are you a teacher who would rather do anything than mark papers right now/is freezing up from communication collywobbles?

Pro tip: Light two hazelnut candles. Make a pot of green tea, with some jasmine in it if possible. Go put on mascara, red heels, and a classy bucket hat - it need not be authentic 1920's. Turn on playlists that feel joyfully academic to you (I recommend the one at the bottom of the post.) Move out of the basement library and into the dining room where there is natural light. Say a prayer remembering not to rely on your own strength. Tell tumblr how aesthetically pleasing your approach is - boom. Productivity.

(I hope.)
