And it sticks. I mean, focus your attention in that little world of meanings and symbols long enough and you’ll tend to get stuck there.
But reality is infinitely larger than that little world. So to stay there, in that little world, to have your perspective altered like that all the time, is a bit unhealthy and insane.
But this is considered normal. Encouraged even.
Nothing is an unalloyed good. That’s reality for you.
We can discuss the good of reading and also the bad of it. Right?
Your post doesnt interpret that way unfortunately. It reads as “book bad”. On a related note I’m reading Neuromamcer for the first time and its pretty good even if the language is shitty English.
Well I figured that we are all pretty familiar with the upside of reading so describing that would be totally redundant. Whereas the downside is never discussed, so I focused on that.
But yes, how foolish of me, to expect a nuanced discussion.
Showerthoughts is not for nuanced discussion my guy
Bullshit.
