>>reading
have an a4, 3-column page of books, most of which audiobooks, the rest will be converted to audio and read alongside the actual text, both at ~ x2.3 speed
also practicing my spritzreading and tweaking the settings such that they match as close as possible the time i'd spent with natural eye movements. this at a true speed of ~650, depending to on the easiness of text higher
i have nietzsche, aristotle, some other greek shit, christopher moore, ray bradbury, jack keruoac, a lot of true crime and quite few zombie books as well
i've been rating them a (acombination of) P predictable/B boring/W bad writing/F wrong, false/A annoying/O old, known info
so far 6 completed, about 8 to .33 or .5 before getting mad at author for being bad, i'd say i'm around 5% complete?
>>writing
notes here and there, otherwise no
>>watching
a few (s)exploitation or cheesy flicks from the 70s; movies are mostly disappointing

ITT: arguing over dimes and nickels

/a/, /b/, /mlp/, /vg/, /tv/, /vp/, /jp/, /x/, /pol/, /int/ are all scum-tier garbage.

The only remotely respectable boards on this site are /lit/, /trv/, /sci/, /vr/, /asp/, /out/, /n/ and maybe a few others. /fit/ and /ck/ should be good but they're full of fucking idiots and junkfood plebs, in that order.

The stupidest idea I have heard all week, and I have heard a painful amount of stupid ideas this week.
