You can force everyone in the world to read one book.

[(Anonymous)]

Or listen to the audiobook if they're visually impaired, and so on. Either way, they experience one, originally-written, literary work.

What book do you choose?

Re: You can force everyone in the world to read one book.

[(Anonymous)]

either Good Omens--great as it is--or Guards! Guards!--god getaway into the rest of DiscWorld
but i'd rather convince people than force them--no-one should be forced, even to read good books

Re: You can force everyone in the world to read one book.

[(Anonymous)]

Either The Gift of Fear or The Drama of the Gifted Child.

Assuming you're not limiting it to fictional stories and such.

Re: You can force everyone in the world to read one book.

[kaijinscendre]

To Kill A Mockingbird or Schindler's List. Maybe Night or The Diary of Anne Frank.

Re: You can force everyone in the world to read one book.

It's so sad that I feel the need to preface this with but I'm not like all the kids on tumblr, but...

"In Other Lands", because it's straightforward, and funny, and it makes us love Elliot and Luke and Serene well before Luke's History Class Announcement and Elliot's music store romance and Serene's views on gender. I think that kind of normalisation is way, way more effective than any token diversity.

This Way For the Gas, Ladies and Gentleman

Re: You can force everyone in the world to read one book.

[(Anonymous)]

Probably a non fiction book about cognitive biases.

Re: You can force everyone in the world to read one book.

[(Anonymous)]

A Wrinkle In Time or Smilla's Sense Of Snow.

Re: You can force everyone in the world to read one book.

[philstar22]

Lord of the Rings. It as originally all one book.

Re: You can force everyone in the world to read one book.

TBH? A book about argument fallacies and why they're fallacies. Then again there's that saying about leading a horse to water , so I don't know how much good it would do. But I like to think it would cut down on shitty arguers.

Things you've always wondered

[(Anonymous)]

But have never asked, either because you're embarrassed, think it might just be you, or you just never got around to asking.

Re: Things you've always wondered

[(Anonymous)]

Why do some people sound like they're happy on the phone when they're upset? Twice I've answered calls where it sounded like the person was happy and about to say something positive, only for them to either be sad or angry.

Is it because their voices are raised, and there's no facial expression to clue me into the fact that it isn't a "happy" raised voice? Are they nervous initially?

Re: Things you've always wondered

[(Anonymous)]

On a personal level, why no one ever comments on my Facebook posts.

It doesn't offend me. I'm honestly curious. If it's political I get a decent amount of likes, but everything else falls flat. It did offend me for a while, so I deleted my account until I stopped taking it so damn seriously. Now I don't but still wonder.

Re: Things you've always wondered

[(Anonymous)]

Why professional public speakers sometimes end up having the worst public speaking skills.

Re: Things you've always wondered

[(Anonymous)]

Why hard cider gets me more wasted than beer. Both are mostly water, bubbles, a little sugar, and alchohol though cider actually contains less of that than beer, so???

Re: Things you've always wondered

[(Anonymous)]

Is it really that likely that if you're pursuing same-sex relationships, you're likely going to have problems if you're at least partially in the closet and want to stay that way because that's a deal breaker for a lot of people in the long term? This seems to come up as relationship conflict in a lot of glbt media and it always gives me this sinking feeling because I don't see any reason to rock the boat by confronting my parents with my potential sexuality...I'm not close enough to care about their approval or their good vibes or their encouragement, but I also have no desire to cut them off entirely, and even though this is so hypothetical it's very hurtful to imagine someone would think that's about my relationship with them and not my fucking business, even if it's one of those "I think that's kind of shitty, but you can set whatever standards are important to you in relationships"...things.

What does it feel like to have a penis?

What book could you not put down?

[(Anonymous)]

Or what shows did you bingewatch?

Re: What book could you not put down?

[(Anonymous)]

I actually hate bingewatching shows, but I blazed through the first season of The Good Place in one day. The episodes are short and I just wanted to see what happened next. It took me about five days to get through Season 2 (I had S1 on DVD but S2 is just online, so ads/slower loading time), but that's still pretty damn fast for how I usually watch TV.

Re: What book could you not put down?

[kaijinscendre]

I think I read NOS4A2 in like a day. Such an engaging book.

I watched all of Breaking Bad, except for the second half of the last season, in a week. Specifically the week before the last season came out. Unemployment had one benefit.

Re: What book could you not put down?

[malurette]

CHERUB #1: The Recruit--I don't even think it was that good, but I picked it up a couple of days after starting antidepressants and anxiolytics, they were just kicking in and all of a sudden I was decompensating for years and years of chronic depression, it felt like I had no energy left whatsoever and other, more serious books literally fell from my hands. This one, I read in one afternoon top. Then I proceeded to read the whole series, but slower.

Trollhunters, season #3--but only to avoid spoilers and I ended up regretting it and not taking more time to process each episode before starting the next one.
