How do women even exist? They continue their immature vices into adulthood in a way only loser failure men do, and are rightly mocked for. But a woman can buy a GIANT FIRST LETTER OF HER NAME for $39.99 and put it on a bookshelf and people think she's an acceptable member of society. Every woman is Bobby Bacala playing with toy trains level of frivolous with her money, but society has no commensurate dialogue on it, unlike Bobby Bacala who is depicted as notably eccentric. WHO BUYS A GIGANTIC FIRST LETTER OF THEIR NAME? WHY do you need a featureless orb and a wooden chicken? And don't talk about the funco pops or how this is a staged picture, you all know dozens of women who do shit like this.

This is the ultimate design of the middle class mans library. It can hold so many books in such a small space. It is portable, the knowledge you need on the go. Insert it into the correct reading device and the knowledge of centuries will be at your fingertips, weighing less than a common hardcover book.

what you are talking about is the "middle class" manufactured by communists ever since the cold war got heated up again in 1979

I receive a middle-class income for my shitty Midwestern town, anyway and my personal library is distributed about 50/50 between physical copies stored in bags haphazardly strewn about my apartment and digital copies stored on my SSD. I find myself reading the digital copies more often because I'm in front of my screens 15 hours a day and it's just more convenient

Not him, but it's typical Larson - i.e. pop history that appeals to the CostCo bulk-buyer who browses their book aisle and likes to thim of himself as a 'reader' while also saying that literature as a genre is too pretentious (and secretly believing that it's too hard), and who has never realized there is a difference between pop history and more serious historical treatments.
