I recently found this channel where the guy does really compelling reviews and explanations of books.

I admit I’m a little ashamed how much I’m enjoying it because part of me is saying “Why are you listening to some dude talk about books instead of reading the books?” But I’m old and kinda lazy and lost interest in character development arcs and relationships and just want to know about the cool high-concept sci-fi ideas and storylines. This guy does a great job of giving me all the sci-fi I’m jonesing for in a short, and visually interesting format.
I heard so much about the Three Body Problem series but just don’t have the time to invest in book series’ the way I used to. But I found his channel and in about 4 20-30m videos got a really good impression of the series’ ideas and stories and just really enjoyed watching. Dude has a great voice for this too and is just a great ambassador of nerddom in general.
If you’ve fallen behind in your reading and don’t expect to have time to catch up- you should check this guys channel out.
Lol I’m not disapproving anything. You just took it that way.
One thing you’re right about. Sure I’m insecure because cash is money and new, indirect ways of consuming one’s labor is scary, even more so when it’s relatively new and unestablished route.
Irked, but not disapproving… interesting distinction.
You must hate libraries ;)
My dude… if you’re not writing for the love of writing and you’re this worried about getting paid- you won’t ever have to worry about people consuming your work without paying you.
You apparently have no idea how libraries even work so I guess this is it. Thanks for the chat, I feel dumber than before.
Do you know what this symbol means? ;)
It’s used to indicate the comment was humorous. Do you not get how the library comment was a jab at your little ‘cash is money’ rant?
