I don't think anybody really grasps how desperate this situation is.

University professors are now saying they are unable to teach history because reading long books and passages is how a person learns history. College kids are incapable of reading more than a few pages.

Some classes don't assign any reading at all now, only lectures.

There is an assumption among the people managing this decline that reading is just a way of receiving information. It isn't. Proper reading is how we build the mental muscle to synthesize ideas and evaluate them.

If the catastrophic decline in reading and literacy is not addressed now, we risk losing everything.

Western civilization cannot survive the death of reading because it was built by people with the kind of cognitive depth that a culture of deep reading brings:

Complex reasoning, extended internal dialogue, the capacity to hold opposing ideas in tension. Our systems and institutions are complex, and they require well ordered minds to maintain them.

Reading forms minds, and the West was built by the richest minds in history.

The quickest way to realize we are not as clever as we think is to read someone who lived 200 years ago.

[Toxcyk @_toxicblonde]

tbh this is a great example of just how boring life has become. I miss treeeeeees man.

Ex-Blockbuster employee here. And I mean it with 100% sincerity that the world would be a better place if we shut down all streaming services, re-opened Blockbusters and video stores worldwide, and shoved people back out into the world to find and enjoy their entertainment.

Llámenme conspiranoico o exagerado, pero atacó a los pedofilos de Hollywood en 2018 y ahora aparece con otro color de ojos y otra cara. Le metieron un doble como a Biden

I’m generally opposed to milking these franchises dry until they’re nothing but a shriveled husk, but if this movie is going to villainize iPads and scold parents who use screens to babysit their kids then I wholly support it. This may be the only “part 5” movie that has ever had a valid reason to exist.

[soup🍓 @thrluv]

please stop making everything digital i want to keep saving the movie ticket, the concert ticket, a handwritten note, a photo, the invitation of about 15 & all those little things in a shoebox to open when im 80

[Solyricon @Solyricon]

I just saw a man open the car door for his wife and she smiled like it happens every day. It made me realise… romance isn’t roses. It’s consistency. It’s being cared for without having to ask.

I have a theory that many young women are indifferent towards motherhood simply because they’re hardly exposed to babies. Your heart melts when you hold a baby.
