I had two absolutely horrible breakups. Both felt like they were never ending and that the pain would be forever. It did indeed take me a while to get over heartbreak but there eventually was light at the end of the tunnel
Yes but I am looking for advice on how to make reading not physically hard on my neck! So any advice is welcome. I bought an ebook to even see if that could help somehow
Usually at a coffee shop. But I will also read at my home desk, at my office desk, in the bathtub haha, and sometimes outside on my porch.
The ritual thing is tricky for me because I'm kind of forced to make it routine. But I will say that you may want to think about when is your most alert focused time of the day. I try and force myself to start work as close to 930 as possible and have learned that I max out at deep focusing for reading and writing after like 2 - 3 hrs.
If I'm really not feeling it sometimes I'll just put a timer on and tell myself I'll just read even for five minutes! Five min is Better than no reading !
My biggest dilemma is that I have chronic pain issues in my neck and can't figure out how to hold the book properly to not exacerbate my neck pain! Haven't figured that one out.t hough
My answer is different depending on if it's fiction or non.
Also context I'm in academia which means I read constantly for work. This sadly means though that I don't read much fiction or for fun. I do try and mediate that by reading poetry since they're short !
But when I do read for fun I tend to read before going to bed so I'm laying down in bed.
For non fiction I will read lots of places. And I pretty much can't digest the information unless I'm able to highlight and annotate what I'm reading. I try to read non fiction that is relevant to my research not before bed so as to retain the information a bit better.
I used to have a reoccurring dream when I was a teen where I would be able to fly in the air if I had a kickboard with me. It led to me even being able to lucid dream. It was awesome. Unfortunately I haven't lucid dreamt since that reoccurring dream ended
Im not sure if afraid is the right word compared to morally opposed to the big tech generative ai hype. Using it for money won't resolve that. Instead it would go against my own personal values with how I want to live my life.
Part of me wants to make the comparison that what you're suggesting is like telling someone who is afraid and opposed to gun violence, or war and the military and to just join the military. Or accept the status quo of violent authoritarianism. It may provide me stability to accept our states oppressive regime, but it's definitely not me living with integrity nor bringing me any kind of happiness.

Reading while taking a bath is nice !
Legal community as in a community forum for lawyers ?
im adding Hardt and negri, and jodi dean.
For real tho Annie McClanahan perhaps? I would have said Joshua Clover although sadly he just passed within the past year or so.
It's hard to sometimes decipher what scholar is or is not working with Marxism since it's been so influential to so many academic fields
That's what they want you to think !
this is a tough one but I'm going to say karl marx

Yeah can you explain ?
Yes
I'm on combo thing of Vyvanse and Adderall and everyday is just a gamble if I will feel exhausted all day or overwhelmed with anxiety... Or both.
Is it something a university would have? If so I could see if mine does

Well, questions of efficiency seem like it does matter, no?
