It's a lot healthier to go for a daily walk than to sign up for a gym membership you won't be using because you hate that kind of exercise. It's a lot healthier to eat a frozen meal than to skip a meal because you were too tired to cook something healthy. It's a lot healthier to take a quick shower than to procrastinate an elaborate routine for days. Don't aim so high that you won't be hitting anything!

My woke take, as someone who has worked in both a public library and a school library, is that we desperately need both more books that are at a higher reading level but a less mature subject matter, and more books that are at a lower reading level but a more mature subject matter, because 8 year olds who are advanced readers are still 8 year olds and don't want to read about graphic violence and torture, and teens and adults who have learning difficulties or who are just later readers for whatever reason are still teens and adults and don't want to read about Billy the Bunny going to school or whatever the hell.

Shoutout to people in the notes also mentioning people learning the language, I should've mentioned that really, given that I've been stuck reading German picture books myself while learning German.

I used to teach at a school that went hard on Lexiles, and students were only allowed to read books 100 points below to 50 points above their Lexile. That was fine for the 60% of kids who read at a 8th-10th grade level, as it was a 9th grade class and most books within that Lexile range are YA books.

But about 20% of the class were basically illiterate, and their only options were picture books. Having to publicly read nothing but books for 1st graders was humiliating for them, so they just refused to read anything at all.

Meanwhile, the remaining 20% of kids were reading at a college level, and all we had at that level were like... extremely dry nonfiction books about medicine or politics. So those students would get bored, because the subject matter was so uninteresting, so they ALSO refused to read.

Which lead to 40% of the class being completed demotivated to read, and so they were bored and would act up, and the classroom would descend into chaos.

And if I told the readers at a 1st grade level that they could try to read, like, Goosebumps, or the college level readers that they could read The Hunger Games, I would get reprimanded by admin.

So, yeah, I agree with OP 100%.

Natural disasters! I never see anyone talk about that one and as a result I spent years thinking that watching my hometown get destroyed on the news and subsequently having to uproot my entire life at the age of seven wasn't Real Trauma because there was no Abuser™

Fi and Ghirahim's arcs parallel each other in this beautiful tragic way that I feel a lot of people miss.

You know Fi is a sword from the very beginning. She presents herself as a tool with no will or feelings of her own, but as you get to know her, you realize she is a person in her own right, but she is trapped in her weapon form indefinitely without any choice in the matter.

You know Ghirahim is a person from the very beginning. He presents himself as someone full of personality and opinions, outright telling you how he feels on several occasions so you can't possibly miss that he has emotions. but as you get to know him, you realize he's a sword too, and one who, if you read between the lines (see my analysis), has clearly been terribly mistreated all his existence and has adopted this loud, impossible to ignore personality so that no one can deny his sapience. but he is trapped in his weapon form indefinitely without any choice in the matter.

Fi does everything in her power to convince you she is not a person. Ghirahim tries everything in his power to convince you that he is.
