Extroverts need attention. They can't understand why Introverts don't, so they distrust them.

The Ultra-Introverts Who Live Nocturnally
While most people are fast asleep, some are going about their lives, reveling in the quiet and solitude. They challenge a core assumption of psychology: that all humans need social connection.

Looking to read more this year? Audiobooks can be a great entryway, and a great way to add even more reading into our lives. And indie bookshops and public libraries both play a huge role in helping folks develop a love for reading 💕

In 2026 I want all of the decent people to remember one thing.

You aren’t meant to be this disciplined, this self-sacrificing to survive. The environment is supposed to support good living. We can have that. You are not a failure. That is politics.

That is all.

At my big age — and with my life decently- enough lived — I’m simply not taking even the tiniest slights anymore.

Learn emotional regulation or leave me alone.

It’s not just that video is too slow. It is that. It’s also not my own understanding happening. I also truly believe that the mind and life I want to have does not happen through watching but does through reading. Wild that this is even a little bit provocative but I suspect that mostly just online

People get so angry about this, I’ve found that interesting. There is definitely some resistance to the idea of reading, not just the act of doing it.

But yeah I am not watching a video, ever, if I can help it.
I am An Old.

(I read way faster than people speak, so I'm almost always going to prefer text over video. I can also read without disturbing anyone nearby without requiring headphones)
The real generational divide is people who refuse to watch a video if it could be an article versus people who refuse to read an article if it could be a video

Someone shared a picture of a cold custard banana pudding and I said not one single North Carolinian word. You know what that is?

Arsenal really beat Madrid home and away and truly were the better team. Can’t believe it. Incredible work from the boys. Huge credit to Arteta. I don’t think all our fans appreciate how solid he has made us.

Shopping small is about helping our favorite businesses thrive, including our beloved indie bookshops. But in today’s day and age, it goes way beyond that, too. Shopping local can help our entire community for the better, and for generations to come.
