Christian Ross
Are you implying ebooks are inferior?
Gabriel Walker
I have tons and tons and tons of books as PDFs stored on my laptop. I like reading them when I forget a book. I have shit ranging from Shel Silverstein to Hitchens to Plutarch
Dylan Wilson
other than this, I'll usually read some sort of fantasy series over a year
Ayden Anderson
When you are bored, instead of picking up your phone or mindlessly browsing web start reading a book. Or just force yourself to read when you are lying in your bed. Works for me.
Justin Morgan
I never really liked reading but my job has 2-8 hours of downtime in a day plus time sitting in a hotel away from him so I picked up reading to pass the time. Finished The Wheel of Time a couple months ago and now I'm reading light novels for anime that will never see the light of another season.
Also have a few other series stacked up to read recommended by friends.
Alexander Martin
hentai doujins are based as fuck
i get infinitely more value from those than trash like lottor and game of throws, harry pothead
either you read to educate yourself or for entertainment, why settle for something that is neither

Pro tip: If you hate reading books, try listening to an audiobook. It's like night and day not having to strain my eyes following a text.
Easton Lewis
Reading books is overrated. I read 5 books this year, 4 of them fantasy novels, one book about Buddhism. I don't feel smarter.
Most novels are not much better than TV and technical books are not better than using the internet really.

I wonder why.
Christian Thompson
Reading is way too understimulating for me and it drives me nuts I just can't sit and read
Nathaniel Murphy
My point is, that the medium itself doesn't say much about the quality of the work. I know those books were light reading and I treat them as such. What I can not understand are people who read any book and think they are superior to people who don't read. In the end it's about information and if you think deeply about it.
I still try to learn new things, but maybe I focus too much on tech.
Benjamin Campbell
Even boomers listen to audiobooks now. I don't think anyone still alive claims superiority for reading physical books.

Thomas Morgan
used to back when magazines were fun
around the dot com bubble was when lots and lots of awful books came out to make a quick buck. we never went back.
Jonathan Perez
It's kinda dry but really explains a lot
If I had never programmed before and started reading it then I'd be totally lost tho

Ive read about 700 ebooks last year. Mostly through kindle unlimited, some through rips because no unlimited option. Everything from old rome to self published scifi.
Let me tell you that after a while you get extremely picky in what you want in a book and what not.
Also books from writers like dostojevskij are pretentious shit and are horribly written. I dont understand why this is seen as historicaly valuable
Gavin Long
read classics, not modern shit. the older, the better.
and novels are a popular medium, they have literally the status like comic books and they always have
