I'm depressed and need something fun to read for an hour or so to get though the day. What are some good recommendations? I prefer fantasy and sci-fi because it doesn't remind me of my own world as much.

Not to be pedantic, but good sci-fi/fantasy ought to be a reflection on our own world. But I feel ya, I guess something like Terry Pratchett's work would be something light and breezy for you to get through.

Pop. 1280 by Jim Thompson.

It's short and easy. It's not sci-fi or fantasy, but it's something you can get through in an afternoon. I read it a couple days ago and I enjoyed my time with it.

Any Cosmere book by Brandon Sanderson is good if you're looking for fun reading. They're pretty well written, and an enjoyable read. Of course, if you're looking for a good laugh, you can always read the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy

You're depressed because you're a pornography addict and this has numbed your capacity to enjoy life. Galen said, after coitus there is sadness. You beat it every morning, no wonder your whole day goes to shit.

Makes it way hotter. Only hot girls that ever had actual feelings (instead of pretending) were emotional trainwrecks, so it became a kink, sadly. I wouldn't trust a healthy hot girl who expressed interest in me. Seems nauseatingly fake. This girl could maybe love me, even for a minute, no matter how toxic, it would be real love. I would rather take a day of real, toxic love than a lifetime of fetid, pretend love.
