When someone asks, "What is it?" and someone else answers, "It's a mystery!" I sincerly hope this is what they're talking about 😂

So, does this mean that in the postmodern era the Author is God? 🤔

Because I already have more hubris than I'll ever be able to use 😜😂

I mean, I won't say no because books should be shared. But like a nervous parent I'll worry about them until they're safely back home 😜 😂

If a book hasn't been banned somewhere is it even worth reading? 🤔😁

Four panel Calvin and Hobbes comic.

Calvin: YESTERDAY DAD WENT UT TO BUY A HARDCOVER NOVEL.

HE SAID HE WANTED TO READ SOMETHING LONG, RICH, AND THOUGHT- PROVOKING FOR A CHANGE, AND HE WANTED A CLOTH BINDING SO HIS BOOK COULD BE CARRIED AROUND AND REREAD LATER.

THEN HE SAID HE WAS GOING TO BUY THE BOOK WITH CASH SO NOBODY COULD TRACE THE PURCHASE TO HIM AND EXPLOIT HIS INTERESTS FOR COMMERCIAL PURPOSES.

Hobbes: YOUR DADS GOING INTO THE FUTURE KICKING AND SCREAMING. ISN'T HE?

Calvin: WHAT IF HES TURNING INTO SOME KIND OF SUBVERSIVE?

Post by Owl at the Library

The part of George Orwell's 1984 that everyone forgets is how the music and
publishing industries have been replaced by a machine that spits out songs and bad novels “without any human intervention.” The goal is to keep you from
ever having to think.
