Gorbles

Sorry, I didn't realise I'ld replied to you twice. I was trying to avoid dogpiling K.

Don't worry, I don't feel gatekept by that guy. I don't take cues for what's acceptable from curmudgeons.

I also highly recommed NOT reading novels at all, but rather novellas, plays, short story (collections), poetry or short nonficiton books. if you problem is more that you can't find a book to commit to, and that you keep abandoning books, I would gladly make you some recommendations as well.

so what I've done is set a specific time of the day until which I don't use any electronic devices at all, take a chair and sit down in the yard. I don't take my smartphone with me. this has allowed me to read every day and the feeling of making progress with your current book every day of the week is a strong motivation.

hey gorbles. reading your post about reading books I simply had to post here, because I was in the same conundrum. what really helped me to get back into reading physical books was something I'd call "attention hygiene". it's virtually impossible to read books when your smartphone or PC is in the same room, and (sleep scientists claim) reading in bed is bad for sleep hygiene.

Thanks for the neutral support brother. Good of you to not choose sides. You did not have to weigh in on the Biden discussion, but you did so better than I can and sort of let me off the hook of feeling the need to keep answering them in eternity. I don’t hate them I just think they are dishonest. Stay safe bro.

I don't have anything productive to contribute to the conversation but I wanted to say your posts in the feminist movie thread are a delight to read and well reasoned.

Hey there! I had no idea you were a game developer, have you by any chance ever worked with Unity/C sharp? I'm helping my little cousin find his way around it and am teaching myself some skills, pretty unsuccessfully :D
