What are you reading rn, why are you reading it, and what format are you reading it in (physical book, ereader, on your phone etc)

I'm rewatching Star Trek: Deep Space Nine and I've just gotten to the episode that features this exchange:

KIRA: Incoming transmission. [He's] sending over a document. EDDINGTON: It's a book. One of my favourites. Les Miserables. SISKO: Thank you, but I've read it. EDDINGTON: Recently? If not, you should read it again.

Absolutely unhinged thing to tell somebody. Although the episode (deliberately?) draws on the misconception of the book being About the obsession Javert has for catching Valjean, I choose to believe it was a space-PDF of a completely unabridged version of the story, digressions and all

sflkjsdfld Thank you for sharing. I've seen out of context screencaps of this episode and the dialogue is truly powerful. I know nothing else about what happens in it beyond that there's a line where one character says "Les Mis isn't about the policeman," and they were so real for that.

Eddington needs to read it again, too, because it doesn't go the way he thinks it does.

Dahling you simply must read this book! It’s all about this devious little caterpillar who simply gorges himself on all manner of divine things

Have a listen to my choral setting of text post memes that originated right here on tumblr!

My piece, Copypasta (performed here by the First Readings Project) is in three movements and uses these texts:

Spiders Georg by @reallyreallyreallytrying

Hot Plum by @utopians

I Think That's Beutiful by @nerdgul

Sheet music is available here.

(If your choir performs this piece, please let me know!)
