      Half the time I’m reading @visakanv tweets I’m like, wait, did I write this? If I’m totally honest it does feel a little weird to know my brain-doppelgänger is an Indian dude in Singapore. HOW are we the same personhttps://twitter.com/visakanv/status/1103240849821855744 …

      It’s always surprising to me that people think it’s hard to get kids to read. Sure it is, if you make it a burden and a tedious obligation. I read books because it was intoxicating to walk through the mind-palace of somebody who cared about me. Kids are starving for this feeling pic.twitter.com/ZvAgZmibAA

      (I suppose it took me about another dozen after that to really find my people on it, but it was pretty obvious the first time I used dialup that my life could be split into before and after.)

          The dial-up totally changed my life and relationship to my family! Beforehand I was annoying bc was in my room with my dictionaries and after that I became annoying in the middle of the living room. Facilitated the moving-out process greatly.
