Sending this out to whoever needs to see it: It's okay if you read slowly, there's no great victory in being able to read quickly, everyone kind of has their own reading speed, and that's perfectly fine. I'm just really happy you're reading. I hope it gives you joy at any pace. Thank you!

If you want to read more books, you have to read books you actually like. If I’m not feeling it, I’ll stop reading it so quickly. I might come back at a later time to give it one more go but sometimes it’s a “nah I’m good” type of situation. Life’s too short to read boring books.

A gentle reminder when this world is really infuriating or depressing you: there are still books. They won’t solve all the planet’s problems — unless, maybe, you read them. And, regardless, the studies show that books make us happy. And empathetic. And more knowledgeable.

The news is always "This absolute fool was dismantled in hearings today. He is manifestly unqualified for the position and would be an existential danger if confirmed. Disaster. He is set to be confirmed immediately." When you ask why everyone is furious and exhausted all the time, this is why.

Ossoff: On Wednesday of this last week he said the war was "Done." And then on Thursday another ship was struck. On Friday the president was bombing again. This is what happens when you send your son-in-law, Jared, to cosplay as a diplomat

Reading a book, seeing a word you don't understand and having to look it up, thereby allowing you to understand something that was previously opaque is sometimes called "thinking" and it's good for you. It's one of the nicer parts about being alive.

Graphic novels turn kids into lifelong readers. They challenge readers, transform reluctant readers into readers, they bring joy. They boost vocabulary, increase reading comprehension for brains that take in information differently. They tell a story. Graphic novels are real reading, real books ✨📚😊

It’s all a production. A reality show with Trump starting as the Great Leader. So much promotion. So much hype. Billions spent on vanity-just elaborate sets actually. Welcome to the theocracy reality show. Detractors will be sued and investigated.

I’m annoyed that it’s obvious we’re in phase 1 of this 3-step cycle 1. Republican president tanks economy and gets us involved in a forever war. 2. Democratic president fixes the economy. 3. People get impatient about things not being as good as they used to be so they vote Republican.

People say Trump has no war strategy, but his strategy is quite clearly a criminal one of destroying Iran's civilian infrastructure (and killing a bunch of people in the process) unless they capitulate. We -- the United States of America -- are a rogue state and global pariah.

The President has launched our nation and our great military into a war of choice, risking American lives and resources, ignoring American law, and endangering our allies and partners. It does nothing to help with the urgent problems here at home that Americans face every day.

Someone has sure already made this observation but the fact they can convert all those empty warehouses into prison camps means they could have converted them into housing, community centers, job training centers or, hell, libraries or schools all along. It’s always a matter of will not resources.

“But I didn’t understand a word he said.” Guess what, that’s the experience of many immigrants when they arrive in a new country, including the United States. You get humbled. Then you work hard and start understanding. We could all use that experience

‘We need gun rights and small government to protect ourselves from tyranny,’ Republicans said - before citing gun possession and fear of tyrannical government to justify murdering fellow Americans.
