Thanks for sharing. I only got back into reading in the past year. I think I stopped because I was trying to read books that I thought I should enjoy. So finding one or more of the education, evolution or escape motivations has helped.

I’ve never seen this YouTube channel before but I liked this video so much that I subscribed. So thanks for that too.

If I’m reading a book, I normally give it a couple of chapters. If I don’t like the style of writing or the story isn’t engaging, it’s very unlikely that it will get better later on.

If I’m listening to an audiobook, I give it a lot longer because I’m usually doing something else while listening and there’s less effort required to progress.

A recent exception is The Power. I read that until 49% because it was okay. Somewhat interesting but I just didn’t care about the characters and I hated the writing style. I thought I should like it more because it was a bestseller and turned into a TV show. I got around to reading reviews which confirmed that it wasn’t just me who didn’t get it and I’m so glad I stopped. I should’ve dropped it after two chapters.

Yeah, I was massively disappointed. I hope they can get Jason on as a guest.

The business that responded in the article does functions. I doubt that the handful of car spaces right outside his business provide the majority of his customers. So most people are either walking from further away, or using alternate transport.

But no, let’s make Sydney Road less safe because fuck you.

Did they explain why they ended it? I’m currently listening to it so maybe the reason is coming up. I’m a loyal listener and so a bit devastated and shocked that it wasn’t announced in advance.

It’s one of the most engaging shows I listen to so I’d be surprised if it was because of a shrinking audience.

Yep copy it over please.

Myki was a shitshow when it was introduced. This is just more of the same.

Funny how removing street parking from Sydney Road somehow means that nobody will be able to get to Sydney Road causing businesses to shut down.

I would have thought that being a moderator of a small subreddit would mean that you would be in a position where your users would follow you, rather than the other way around. Did you participate in the blackout? Did you get about feedback from your users about whether they support the protest?
