It was a pleasant Saturday afternoon in San Francisco’s Marina district. The sun was out, as were the usual crowds of young families and trendy twenty-somethings. I am all too familiar with Chestnut Street and its array of clothing stores and restaurants, its always-busy Apple store and the seemingly immortal Marina movie theater. Susiecakes, however, is special — I have never once set foot in the store, despite having frequently passed its light blue walls and glass windows full of frostings from all over the rainbow. I have avoided this wonderland for far too long, and when the family for whom I was housesitting last weekend insisted I write about their whoopie pie for this column, I finally had the excuse I needed.

But most importantly, you documented it all. You woke up each morning with a headache and a 100-second long Snapchat story. Brilliant minds have devoted their lives to advancing technology so that you can flop your hands on the keyboard and text your crush at 3 am: “wanna make out?” And thank goodness for that, because your embarrassing texts are everyone else’s entertainment. Here are some of your peers’ “texts from last night.”

1. Tan on the Green Nothing will make you feel more like the quintessential Dartmouth student. Not only is the Green super facetimey, but you’re also getting a tan after becoming ghostly pale over the dark winter. Bring work if you want people to think you’re studious, or just take a nap under the pretense that you don’t have any.
2. Go canoeing/kayaking Summon your inner rower and head down to the Ledyard Clubhouse to rent a canoe or kayak. You can row to one of the river’s College-owned islands to have a snack or explore one of the DOC cabins, or just float along. If you’re lucky you can get a new profile picture of out it that makes you look attractive, crunchy and really happy.

I don’t know if I have the words to describe Onoe Caponoe’s work. His album “The Staircase to Nowhere” (2014) consists of spacey overlays and intricate verses. The effect is almost entirely novel, if a little disorienting. The album is an exercise in fantasy, and it all feels a little unreal.
The vibe may be complicated, but it’s expected from Caponoe, a psychedelic British rapper. Another of his albums, “Voices from Planet Cattele” (2015), used interesting and esoteric samples to great effect. The spacey washed-out synths that permeate “The Staircase to Nowhere” are a progression, though Caponoe still enjoys playing with samples. The Game of Thrones audio clip in “Tale of the Buble Lord (Lurk of the Tiny King of the Shadows)” is subtle but effective. Submerged under the heavy beat, the clip grabs your attention and engages you in the track.

Brown University: A Brown Daily Herald poll in March asked the question “Do you feel inadequate relative to other Brown students?” The poll found that non-heterosexual students feel more inadequate compared to heterosexual students in categories such as academic abilities, social lives, sex/love lives, appearances and socioeconomic statuses. Hispanic and black students also reported greater feelings of inadequacy, whereas athletes and international students did not.

Admit it: at some point you have stood in front of the waste station at Collis, spent an obscene amount of time trying to figure out where to toss your lemonade, realized you looked like a creep for standing there so long and finally resorted to composting your entire life. Luckily for you, Dartbeat has come up with a foolproof method to match your personality to either trash, compost or recycling. Trust us, we kinda, sorta, maybe know the difference between the three!

The Pitch, according to Neukom Digital Arts Leadership and Innovation Lab executive director Lorie Loeb, is an event that “provides a place where students, faculty and staff can pitch their big ideas” before a live audience and panel of judges. The participants, 20 groups in total, have just two minutes each to present their innovations before the panel selects three winners. The audience also chooses a fourth.
Loeb says she looks for ideas that “could make an impact.” She said she is impressed by the increasingly strong quality of the pitches, as well as the huge diversity in the types of ideas. The event will continue this term, with the final pitches heard on May 28 at 7 p.m. in Loew Auditorium.
