I find myself acquiring lots of books lately, books I won’t read for at least 6 months. It feels like you can’t investigate topics online anymore without some machine somewhere watching you. If I look something up about my house plants in a reference book, sure it might take longer, but there’s something quite liberating about knowing I’m not being watched by some Ferengi-esque bot that wants my money. Same applies to fiction, maybe I want to be able to read or reference Moby Dick in peace.
