    I never understood this meme, you could also see some threads on lit pop up with the premise similar to "hey guys recommend me some books to heal my autism/adhd/brainrot/lack of focus"
    what's the point of torturing yourself with the depressing ramblings of some dead unc that lived 300 years ago if you will just go back to scrolling when you stop reading, just focus nigga what's wrong with you
    where did people get this idea that reading somehow requires more concentration than anything else, they somehow made it into their 20s without dying which surely required some degree of focus on their part, they already have this ability

    clearly you're terminally online, so, naturally, you stay informed about current events

    You've never been there, I take it?

    Saying trends in Asia have a life cycle of weeks is like saying stop signs in America have eight sides. The smallest exposure coupled with a little bit of observation is plenty. You don't need to do a study.

    Meh. The same stories were "breaking" when Han Kang won the Nobel. And like last time, after 4 or 5 weeks, no one will care.
