there’s a lot of elitism in “bookworm” culture

like you’re basically worthless if you don’t like to read and this weird little culture kind of ignores that some people really struggle with reading/can’t read at all

1. not everybody has access to books.  there was a study done that showed 1 book per every 300 low income children.  books cost money.  books cost time.  reading isn’t going to be a priority if you’re low on these two resources.
2. learning disabilities are a thing that exist.  i used to love to read when i was a kid, before I developed a mental illness that sometimes functions as a learning disability and makes it so difficult to read books that it often frustrates me to the point of tears and i’ve finished probably one whole book in the past 2 years.  many, many learning disabilities specifically affect reading, and you don’t know just by looking at someone whether they have one of these disabilities.
3. people learn in different ways.  you might be really good at grammar (whoopdefuckindoo) and somebody else might spend all their time watching the news and know everything about current events.  maybe that person you think is “stupid” because they said they didn’t like reading is an amazing artist.  maybe you suck at art. you never know

will graham has a nice day: the show

• will wakes up in the morning from a deep night’s sleep
• he drinks his favourite tea (NOT PEOPLE!!!!)
• he eats a healthy breakfast (still not people)
• he takes a walk with his doggies through the forest and finds a little stray kitten that loves him and licks all over his face
• he buys the kitten a treat and the doggies a treat (and those treats aren’t people!!!!)
• he turns on the news and anderson cooper reports that everyone in the world is having a nice day and there are no murders and to wear warm socks because it’s a little chilly outside
• he gets a card from a secret admirer that tells him he has nice hair and isn’t insane and should take care of himself more
• he watches a good movie and has a nice bath and drinks wine (not people!)
• he goes to bed just a little before normal but not before eating a good batch of ice cream in his favourite fuzzy t-shirt (both of those things are not people)

if terry richardson ever asked me to come into his studio i would say yes only so i could then set it on fire with him in it and then i would post the pictures on his tumblr and all the sexual predator apologists would reblog it thinking it’s art or something and i would laugh my way to prison

THINGS I LIKE

• when people use my name in conversation
• when people say “this reminded me of you!”
• when people remember little things i say/do
• when people genuinely thank me for things i’ve done for them
• when i think of the same thing at the same time as someone else and you give each other the look
