you could never make me hate magitech/scifantasy settings. fantasy and scifi are two beuatiful women to me and they are kissing with tongue.

hey quick PSA but “reading before bed to wind down” only works if you’re normal about books btw. if you aren’t you are going to end up awake at 2:52am after finishing the whole book just trust me on this one

I'm so sorry I'm late in getting this up this time, friends! But, yanno. Life be life'n.

Click here for the FAQ, and please feel free to ask me if you have any questions. ❤️ Enjoy!

what the fuck is up with calling people performative for reading a book that you don't personally think they are the type to be reading. stranger in the park reading poetry and you think they look like theyre too stupid to get it so you assume that (instead of you being an asshole for assuming the personality of a stranger) they must be performing their interest, for you, a person who they have not looked at and do not know exists. these people are being created in a lab to try and convince the rest of us that reading a book can only be done for the benefit of an audience and not just because reading is awesome. stop filming strangers for tiktok and join your local library's summer reading club and maybe you'll calm down

Can’t believe reading has become an “aesthetic trend.” Stop gatekeeping reading
