I genuinely think the worst thing the internet did to reading was convince people that finishing books is a competitive sport. You don't need to read 52 books a year. You just need to read. Books you like. At your own pace. And think about them for longer than a TikTok video.
@Daojoan Even a game of solitaire has to have point scores and "levels". Ludicrous when some deals are unsolvable. Either you clear all the cards or you don't. It's just a pastime, not the effin olympics.
