More suggestions:

Tell a bookseller what books you like and ask for their recommendations

Look up the author and see what other books they've recommended, other authors they've paneled with, events they're doing, etc. and discover new books/authors that way

get familiar with genres, tropes, trends, etc.! Learn what books are aiming for so you can look up other books that aim to do the same things

Join a book club or other group space where people talk about books and take recommendations from others

Look up the book on any retailer site and look at the "readers also bought" or "other people liked" or "bookseller recommendations" etc. and just click around a bit. Follow them like a Wikipedia rabbit hole until you have a whole new list of books to read.

Go on Goodreads or Storygraph or something. Find reviewers who gave 5stars to your favorite books and check out other things they've read and enjoyed. If they have a blog, consider following it or at least reading their other posts.

*Post* about the book you like and let other people who like the book find and interact with you until you can all share recommendations with each other. It's a beautiful thing! Please try it!

Also, my personal favorite: stand in a bookstore paging through the book and wait until someone walks up to you and asks "are you a fan of [book]?" At which point you spend two hours talking and become friends and then you talk about other things you like and then you start going to similar events and introducing each other to cool new things and sharing more books. This has only happened to me once, but it was really cool and I hope to experience it again someday.

I taught my kid that swear words (important note: this does not include derogatory names for groups of people) are just words that can carry a social consequence. When you are a child, this consequence isn’t on you, as much as it is on your parents, who are responsible for you. As such, parents usually just ask their kids not to swear. Instead of that, I told him to ask me before he swore so I could explain the potential social consequences and we could make the decision together. So far, he’s asked a handful of times if he could swear at Trump while we watched the news. I found this perfectly acceptable, so he got to say “Ｆｕｃｋ trump”. Once when he dislocated his knee, he asked to swear - I said yea, he yelled “HOLY SHIT OUCH” and I asked if it made him feel better, he said it did. Once in traffic someone almost hit us and he asked to swear, I said yes - he said “That guy is an ASSHOLE” and I was like, yeah. 100% he was. He’s never asked to swear at a time that I felt was inappropriate. I have 0 regrets about this parenting decision.

''what if you regret it'' then you will expirience regret - a normal and unavoidable part of the human expirience.

[whyenn-reader]

the more you twist yourself into a pretzel to avoid regret the harder it will hit when it eventually catches up to you.

I do think the ability to emoji-react is a net win for human communication. not only does it give you an outlet for 'I see and acknowledge this but don't have a verbal response' but it also adds a pleasing alethiometer element to things

my coworker announces that he's off to the dentist. someone reacts with a tooth emoji. is this a statement of dentist solidarity? a wish for my coworker to return with more (or fewer?) teeth than he set out with? simple word association? who can say
