I used to stress a lot about this as a kid. I managed to read the full children/YA contents of my very small local public library by 14 then moved on to the adult side and finished that by 17. The librarians used to greet me and tell me anything new that came in.
Around 18-19, i 'blossomed' then one of the male librarians started giving me special attention that felt inappropriate and I could tell he had weird intentions so a lifetime at the library came to an end. Could have been worse, but I just got scared and stopped showing up.
I think the saddest part is that I used to take my two younger siblings every Saturday and Sunday, and I just stopped taking them and never explained why because I was too ashamed. I tried to switch branches but this library was already a 35 minute walk for us, it wasn't possible for us to go anywhere else and, after being creeped out, being in any library at all gave me stress.
This was a long time ago and I was a super shy kid from a tumultuous home so I didn't know how to address it. This man watched me grow up for more than 10 years. I went back and visited that branch a few years ago and he didn't work there any more. I feel like he carefully toed the line, so anything he did and said could be just seen as 'friendly' but the leering, compliments on my appearance, and the sudden touching (hand on shoulder/hand on arm) really set off alarms.
TLDR: A weird trauma dump triggered by seeing that meme. Brains are weird.
I prefer to think of it like this:
I could read amazing books all my life and not worry about running out of new (to me) books
Was having that same thought myself!
Kinda yes, but expanded to human creation in general
So many movies to watch, books to read, games to play, music to hear, paintings to see, buildings to explore, poems to contemplate
If I was capable of such feelings, I wouldnt have 300 unplayed games in my Steam library.
Not at all. I’m 100% sure that spending as much time as possible playing Umamusume is the most spiritually fulfilling course of action one can embark on in this life
Something Goldship would lowkey say
The thing is, I could probably read all the books that I would consider "amazing" before I die. But I don't really know whether a book is "amazing" before reading a considerable amount of it. Plus a book that I consider amazing at 30 is not necessarily a book that I consider amazing at 70, so the timing matters a lot.
I'm more worried about all the things I'll never be able to know, and that the world will continue to go on without me making new history for people to learn in the future, but it will be as if I never existed.
No, because more and more are constantly being made, fools errand.
Yes, but a lot of those new books are not even about penguins.
