well

it probably depends on your reading level

I got lazy with reading as a teenager

being part of this movement inspired me to start reading full books because I want to not because I have to

I never did that when I was younger

I did go on Wikipedia tangents though

Along the lines of most books needing to be read twice, I'd say the authors failed

I know that I *can* read a book twice and gain more, but for an author to expect anyone to read their book twice (luckily they did the first time), is bad strategy

I just forget stuff

and my reading comprehension isn't where it should be

probably higher than then average person

but lower than 🅱ig 🅱rained IE members

lol, to be fair my reading comp is sky high--but not my math score

>Read this book, guy
>Oh, I know where this is going.
>Here's some long division
>erm, where's my book..?

ahahaha the conversation I just witnessed in the train station

> where are you from, Russia?

*nods*

> where at in Russia?

> Ukraine

baste

I did some more digging on Trump's bump stock ban, this is apparently something he started promising he would do back in February. That makes me feel a bit better about it I guess. I sometimes wonder if him giving bones to the lefties like Crim. Justice reform + bump stock ban give him cover for things like withdrawing troops from Syria.

I'm literally in Odessa right now

just got a bit of internet connection

@Jacob nice! My dad went there a few times, he said it was beautiful. Are you with family?

oh, it's the Odessa in Washington, so probably not as exciting

though visiting Ukraine one day sounds fun

@Jacob LOL yeah very different

the girl sitting next to me was speaking Russian though

who knows, maybe she's from the original Odessa!

Ukrainian is an eastern Slavic language and sounds very similar to Russian.

My girlfriend is Serbian, and speaks it fluently. Sounds Russian, too

A lot of Slav languages are like that tbh

Mhm

Same with the Romance languages

Even if Trump gets the Wall, he will be sued out the ass for it

Peak 2019: a Trump appointed judge rules border wall unconstitutional

You can tell that women created Romance languages

The fact of the matter is if it does its out of his hands. He becomes a martyr to the people. Now he's just a betrayer. At this point it's not even about the wall it's just a pissing match to see who's gonna back off first. If the nuclear opition is called the dial is just turned up by a lot.

@Phillip Wiglesworth - FL Ukrainian sounds really weird to me

oh you probably didn't know that I speak Russian

so your message makes sense
