Continually adjusting

All those classics added the other day was only a little over 20 dollars, so i got rid of Prime and amc+ again to make it even Stephen ... this then effects the grande mode of time management, most of the time is to be reading now, and an average of a film a day or 2.

Currently reading Middlemarch by George Eliot, a fairly long one, widely hailed as one of the greatest novels in English, it's time period is during the 1800's i forget which decade, when major changes happened. There quite a bit of deep things in it, a thinking person's novel, at first i compared it with my shady knowledge of Jane Austen, and Eliot is by far more deep imo.

For a person such as i who feels an intense need for escapism of the concrete and immersive type the classics makes the most sense, of all those complete works editions that i've been snapping up since i first got my kindle will finally be made use of. I've merely toyed with the classics up to now, i started many, finished so few.

These things take time and require patience, and learning virtues such as patience and the wisdom these works offer i look forward to.

There are also a whole lot of other collection type of things that are documents on the kindle that i got from z-library a few months ago, those are exciting in their own right, Malazan Book of the Fallen and all the other Malazan related books are forefront for me in the epic fantasy genre, and others.

The modernist and post-modernist works of Pynchon etc

The non-fiction works of thinkers i love and those i need to know better.

The poetry section is quite nice too.

All should be clear then that the majority of my time while awake must be for reading. After i post this i might whiddle down my subscriptions even more, for with fewer option i get more use out of what remains, The Criterion Channel would be the one i'd never let go of, whose emblem garnishes my profile picture.

The road ahead must be clear sighted, straight, and filled with edification. All the years of social media addiction reading must be matched with timeless prose reading.

With love to my cyber family, i beseech thee all to accept my lack of participation, i see the end in the distance, it shimmers like an oasis in the desert. My being moves, glides only as i am engrossed in a good book or film. Movement such as that is defined by acceptance, it is not a belligerent denial of what is to come.
