I am in Auckland, now.
I don't have netflix. I watched some neon.
Television isn't really my thing, anymore.
I watch CohhCarnage play computer games on Youtube or TwitchTv.
Or other people playing computer games.
Or I play computer games.
Or I read. Print. I prefer to read things in paper.
There is something tactile or motor in the way I ideally or properly process written information.
I mean I can do computer work, obviously, but it's different when I can put my hands on the page and work my way through a physical heft of it.
Form memory of where it was on the page. Of how far through the page was.
Of what shelf on the library the book resides.
In the library of the world...
According to the system of classification
Into which you can slot all the books in all the libraries of the world.
ANd readily see:
What is missing.
What sections aren't there.
What books have been removed.
Which is (of course) why the physical libraries are going / have gone away.
Off to the fires of storage.
