The books in the work space. More books at your desk than on your bookshelf because you need to check your references damn it.
Leonid Pasternak (Ukrainian, 1862–1945) - The Torments of Creative Work
#I have multiple spiral notebooks that I use for ttrpg settings.#they have invaded my desk space#it’s an old desk too#not ‘nice looking antique’ old#my desk is ‘was new during the glass-top minimalist Ikea’ trend old#so three of the connection points are snapped off from the glass pane and I’m just holding out hope that the fourth and final one won’t snap#it’s not the nice kind of old desk is my meaning#it is straining under a weight of paper it was never made for#it was made to sit in a nice office where some dude in a suit would look at the polished see-through surface and go ‘wow I’m modern’#with a maximum of like three or four pieces of printed paper max#my desk was made as a decoration not a desk
