I read Bukowski on the toilet. Every month or so I get a new Bukowski book to keep in the toilet. I've read four of his novels so far and half way through a collection of stories.

Other than that I read on the couch or on the tram to uni, sometimes in the sun on the lawn at uni too.

I really like the idea of reading outside but I always get too distracted.
The light won't be right or I'll hear something or see a bug.

So usually I just read in bed or on the couch.
I prefer the bed but feel strange being in bed during the day, though there is no real logical reason for that.

>> No.7248839

>>7248838
i don't have citations for this, but psychologically, we associate the bed with sleep. that's why people who spend a lot of time in their room and on their bed for purposes other than sleeping may have difficulty sleeping at night time. perhaps this explains why you feel strange in the bed during the day.

Sundays I ride to the neighbouring town that connects through the local train, read on the train, take a coffee break with apple pie or cheesecake, ride back and read.
During the week I just read on the train on my normal commute.
For some reason I find it very hard to read at home.

On the subway, pretty much. I can try reading at coffee shops but i get easily distracted. I can't read at home because whenever I get too comfy I fall asleep (i suffer from mild narcolepsy coupled with add it's fucking hard for me to do shit that requires massive times of concentration). If I MUST read at home I'll usually walk around in circles, i find it strangely therapeutic

On the train to university. Literally no other time.

It's usually around a 1 and a half hour journey unless I have to get off at a station to change service. I make the journey twice a day, so it's somewhere under 3 hours of reading 4 times a week.

On the bus to work every weekday morning. Cafe across from my old college campus weekday evenings and a bakery/cafe a few blocks from my place on the weekends. Out on my lawn if I'm having a smoke. Irregularly in my room on my lounge chair (usually just if I'm drunk and pick out some poetry).

If I'm at a cafe, I have to arrange the books I brought with me, my phone, pencils, my earbud case, and drink neatly on the table. I just like having all my work materials in view.

>Swollen hemorrhoids are usually a result of applying too much pressure to the lower rectum. This may happen if you're straining to have a bowel movement, which can occur during chronic diarrhea and constipation, according to the Mayo Clinic. It may also happen if you sit on the toilet too long because when you sit on the toilet, your anus relaxes, allowing the veins around to fill with blood, which then puts pressure on those veins.

Try cafes again but listening to low key classical music. Piano dominant stuff tends to be great, as is choral music if you can get into it.

A few days ago I had a 2-3 hour period of basically not even looking up from my book (Roman history, hardly riveting by its own merits) because I was listening to Satie's 3 gymnopedies on repeat.
