So did you learn anything from reading so many books?

So did you learn anything from reading so many books?

no

i didn't either desu

I'm getting to be pretty savvy at social etiquette in 19th century Russia.

I can't rant like a mother fucker now because of it. Which is pretty fucking great. I did the same back in the day but now it's more refined. I'm certainly not speaking objective truth but I'm a goddamn artist. I don't have time for that shit. I just need to make this life more interesting than it was before.

*can

Can't name any specific changes but I feel smarter overall. The biggest boost in intellectual performance was felt whilst reading Joyces Ulysses

I feel the same. Reading a lot has only really increased my arguing/ranting skills. It's also made my moral and aesthetic convictions stronger so I have more to argue about.

too much
