@abookofsymbols I mean I think we need to understand “physical culture” in light of the fact that fitness wasn’t something that any normal person needed to worry about until the 19th century. The idea that you would need to exert yourself *more* for health reasons was totally alien

divorcing forms of movement from artistic/spiritual/cultural contexts and making it into “healthy exercise” probably was a bad move for public health. like great you made it a chore

@dan_ofthesouth Just replacing your lunch break scroll with 10 pages of reading can easily get you through a book a month without much further effort. And people might say like “not everyone has a lunch break” but I refuse to believe that nobody has 30 free minutes in a day

30 books a year is maybe like ~125 pages a week w/ a few more during holidays. That could easily be as little as 20 minutes of focused reading a day. Yes it’s not common but it doesn’t have to be that hard

@GlenntheGolden1 Yeah like if you’re an adult with a 40ish-hour-a-week job and no serious extenuating circumstances (health, super young kids, etc), 300 pages a week is not crazy. Basically just an hour each day and you can spread that out across a few chunks

@dimitripilled One book a week is perfectly reasonable. It's not common because most people don't even read one not because it's impossible for someone with reading as a hobby to read 52.

@PekJorkins Saw someone say that bird watching has the most frontloaded gains of any hobby by far, cause it makes everything outside magical for a while but soon you’ll need to chase the most obscure birds in a 100-mile radius to feel something

(And yes, ~18 pages in 20 minutes is totally reasonable for most books. There are denser books that require a lot more time per page, but I don’t think the people struggling to build a reading habit need to start with Ulysses and Nicomachean Ethics.)

Illich is a lot of fun, even if he was constantly overplaying his hand and prone to hyperbolic excess (which is part of what makes him fun to read)

@woodymatters Much, much earlier Please read Limits to Medicine (1975). A book that has aged far too well, sadly

And when I say “no good reason” I don’t mean like “late to work” or “smoked weed.” I mean like “some of their documents were incorrectly filed so they decided it was just easier to fire them than fix it”

Back when I worked at Lowe’s, I had to hear daily complaints from management about how “nobody wants to work” while they also repeatedly fired employees and cut hours for no good reason
Alice@AliceBunnyland2

I have this theory that people work so many jobs not just because everything is unaffordable, but because a lot of places don’t want to hire people full time. They don’t want to provide benefits or overtime, so they keep all their employees just under the line.

@constans Like if I told you that I have a normal job, a wife, a good set of friends (many of whom are accountants and engineers and the like), a nice family, etc. etc, could you believe that or would you convince yourself, "No, anyone who laughs at me MUST be evil and incompetent"

@constans Has it ever occurred to you that maybe you're the one who's a bit overly resentful for inventing these insane fantasies about people who laugh at your twitter gaffes

@CokeSipper People love to talk about problems like flopping, tanking, etc. but the biggest unaddressed issue is how exciting endings are almost impossible. Every play is followed by a minute+ of reviews or timeouts or whatever.

@TheMonkeyJungle I feel like it’d give the franchise a decent jolt if they got like Denis Villeneuve or some other uber-visual director and said “Ok. So you have to call robots droids and psychic powers The Force. Now please just go make a really good sci-fi movie and call it Star Wars.”
