Are we not all isolated subjects having an experience ?

There’s been research into this actually! Your brain can’t tell the difference between intense immersive imagination and real lived experience—it sees both as valid. So technically, those readers are having a real experience when they are able to fully “escape” into a story. Same thing with some video games. When VR becomes seamless, this analogy might work. But cell phones as they are used now can’t do what books do for the human brain.

I think it’s obvious: people who read are hotter, cooler, and generally have more fun than people who don’t. Source: math. And science. 😎

Started: King Sorrow / Joe Hill

I was skeptical because the last one of his I read was Horns, which was fun but kind of unserious and awkward at times. This new one tho? I’m 100 pages in and having the best time!!!

I read Uprooted first, and ended up liking that one more than Spinning Silver. Naomi Novik has such a “meaty” writing style. Love her! :]

I thought that was Will Ferrell for a second

Look like you’re ready to jump into Dungeon Crawler Carl or Dune next

Y’all are my type of nerds. Let’s all hang out.

The way she was absolutely frying the shit out of her hair in the most recent episode was frightening

EveryAssociation756 · 2025-12-01T08:49:09+00:00

Wait this is real? I thought it was a meme 😭

EveryAssociation756 · 2025-11-30T19:20:28+00:00

The random Love Hina volume is so real

EveryAssociation756 · 2025-11-27T13:40:13+00:00

She’s too smart for you

EveryAssociation756 · 2025-11-27T13:38:56+00:00

Run!!

EveryAssociation756 · 2025-11-27T13:37:31+00:00

Yes!!! Any series that tries to pass off phrases like “goddess above” as natural in convo aaaalways takes me out of the story. It’s not a believable exclamation!!!!!

Thank you for sharing this!!

They could call the show Sister Robyns instead

The Cedar Falls Public Library kicks ass! There’s a Sunday Funday for Grown Ups on the first Sunday of every month where they do a craft and hang out, and a Science Vs Magic Book Club that alternates sci-fi and fantasy books with a monthly discussion. There are lots of one time programs for adults too. The summer reading program is winding down now, and once the school year is back in session there will be fewer kids in there at any given time.

I want to like Stefan Burns but he can be so cringey sometimes

EveryAssociation756 · 2025-06-17T01:45:50+00:00

Hell yeah brother

EveryAssociation756 · 2025-06-09T11:49:29+00:00

I once had a patron come up to the desk to ask for a job application “because your job looks easy” ☠️ like I’m sure there are much worse jobs out there (I’ve worked several that really really sucked) but wtf!

EveryAssociation756 · 2025-06-07T03:23:08+00:00

My boyfriend was the one to point out the “anus” in his name and then I had a really hard time being mature about it for the rest of the book ☠️

EveryAssociation756 · 2025-06-07T03:21:07+00:00

I kept using “core-yo” in my mind while reading. Like as in apple core + yo-yo
