I think it's useful in keeping track of my reading, and it has optional features like yearly goals and statistical breakdowns that I use to encourage myself to read more.

Reviewers are, by and large, bad, but there are exceptions to that and I often find it interesting to read a different opinion about a book (even, sometimes, when it is the opinion of an idiot).

>It isn't
Yeah it is - the 4th dimension and the 4th spatial dimension are the same concept.
Travelling through time requires travelling through space (max speed: light speed) because information transfer -> spatial change -> time increment. So in other words, each moment documents a particular state.

>Book videos

>>8297862
There are crucial fundamental differences between temporal and spatial dimensions that you're missing here senpai. The arrow of time, causation, the different conserved properties from Noether's theorem etc. Time + 3 spatial dimensions gives you the spacetime you use in special relativity, but time is not a spatial dimension; it's a temporal dimension.
>Travelling through time requires travelling through space
I think that's only true for massless particles. From my frame of reference I'm not moving through space at all but still moving through time.

Yeah but everything inside "you" is moving constantly; information is transferred from the outside and back again.
Imagine that "you" exist within a perfect vacuum and have never known anything else. How would you know that you even exist at all, let alone that time passes?

I think the difference between space and time is rather superficial.

"keep track of my reading", what is that supposed to mean? You need to keep a list with all the books you read? You should be able to remember them all if necessary, if you cant remember them, then its obvious they were shit.

I never understood why people use goodreads, it screams of "LOOK AT ME I READ BOOKS", too cringey.

Maybe I want to remember shit books that I've read. Maybe I'll forget even the good books that I've read long ago. It's just a diary for books, I could write down which books I read in my physical diary but GR is more organized and effective.

What a fucking garbage article. I especially liked the part where the author assumed the guy read The Economist because he liked the branding. Talk about fucking projecting.

The david crystal pronunciation? My! Why would you do this? The part in it that's legit is footing on very old scholarship (rhymebooks of shakes and the great vowel shift).

That's true, I hate the new design, it takes away the focus from content (i.e., reviews) and puts it on meaningless crap like "X is now friends with Y", no-one cares, the design is all over the place.

The medium or tumblr designs are much better with their focus on content.

Reading plays sucks. Pic related, wonderful to consume via film or theater, mind numbing to sit and read through. Just the interruption of the flow via the character names is jarring.

I'm not looking for friends, but does anyone have some obscure or unpopular horror/gothic (19th century) recommendations? Non-english works are also very welcome. Pic for reference, a few of my favorites.

I've perused a few goodreads profiles and tags but I haven't been able to find much in that direction, advice is appreciated!

I can't quite read all of the titles in your image, so I apologize if you've already read either of these:

- The Private Memoirs and Confessions of a Justified Sinner

- The Monk (technically 18th century)

>>8309306
Actually a 2.5 rating, so somewhere between 'It was okay' and 'I liked it' haha. Gustave Flaubert is probably my favorite author right now, but I found Sentimental Education to be wayyy too slow. So while I appreciated certain aspects of the novel, and what Flaubert attempted to accomplish, it was just ultimately unengaging - especially in comparison to Salammbô and/or Madame Bovary.
