Nothing is an unalloyed good. That’s reality for you.
We can discuss the good of reading and also the bad of it.

Your post doesnt interpret that way unfortunately. It reads as “book bad”. On a related note I’m reading Neuromamcer for the first time and its pretty good even if the language is shitty English.

Well I figured that we are all pretty familiar with the upside of reading so describing that would be totally redundant. Whereas the downside is never discussed, so I focused on that.
But yes, how foolish of me.
