I can be overwhelmed or underwhelmed, but I can’t be whelmed. Or, at least, I think theoretically I could but the way I have set up my life seems to have made it very difficult. I would love to spend more of my life whelmed. Someone whelm me.

If you’re afraid that books might change someone’s thinking, you’re not afraid of books, you’re afraid of thinking.

Okay but hear me out: A nighttime bookstore in which the only lighting comes from lanterns, tea is served to all who enter, there is an emotional support owl in each section, and a buy one / get one free sale occurs during every full moon.

Too many people haven’t touched a book since they graduated high school and it shows.

I feel like videogames actually do provide a pretty accurate representation of real life right now because a lot of videogames are like “THE WORLD IS ENDING” and then you just collect herbs and pretend nothing is wrong

"We read books to find out who we are. What other people, real or imaginary, do and think and feel… is an essential guide to our understanding of what we ourselves are and may become.” Ursula K. Le Guin .

A repeat thought, Bluesky, & a Librarian told you this so it must be true 🤣 Audiobooks definitely count as reading (as well as listening). If you've played through an audioook, its perfectly fine to describe that as "I have read [x]" All other forms of assistive software count as reading too 💙📚 👍
