as im reading crime and punishment, i just remembered this one tiktoker who made this one post of her posing with a copy of crime and punishment & the caption that was like "how are there seriously still women my age who still unironically read ya... pick up a copy of crime and punishment and read something meaningful..."

& the weird thing was like. if you went on her account you saw she was posting about the show euphoria so its not like she was above enjoying teen dramas or coming of age stories. what was going on there

#i saw them arguing in the comment section saying how ya wasnt ''real books'' which is just confusing #what do you mean not real books?? if its a bunch of paper stuck together with a cover thats a book why does it have to have special #qualifications?? why is it always white people who say things arent ''real art'' or ''real literature'' . is it like hardwired in their dna #to dismiss anything they dont like as just Not Real #im so glad i stopped using tiktok man no one on there was normal about reading #txt
