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 you can even stop reading a book you don’t enjoy, or read a book you like several times.
Mad I know.

@Nicovel0 @Daojoan It is so hard to just... stop reading/watching/etc with stuff, but... sometimes one really really needs to just do it...

I've gotten used to it. If a show doesn't hold my interest past episode 3 or 4, it's done for me. It's why I've never watched much beloved shows who take 3 seasons to get good like DS9. I got better shit to do then slog through multiple seasons of "it's fine I guess" when there's so much else to watch.

Same. I drop books, walk out of movies, turn off music. If it sucks? My opinion should matter to me. And my time matters to me and others.

Being judicious is a life skill.
