Shouldn’t you be reading? Those 1100 books per year aren’t going to read themselves.

You mean something interesting? Yeah, I guess I'm feeling charitable slumming with the poorly educated or maybe I'm just a masochist.

I submit two MA degrees and clocked in at around 1100 books read last year alone

QuoteInstead of proudly boasting that you’ve looked at more than 21,000 books in one year, you decide that you want to understand what you’re reading. Doing another quick reading timing test, I came up with a reading speed of 50 seconds per page. Instead of 200 pages, let’s give your books an average of 500 pages. Once again, you devote ten hours a day (36,000 seconds) to reading, allowing you to read 720 pages per day. Plenty more reasonable than before, but it’s not looking good for your book count. In a year, keeping the same pace, you can expect to read around 262,800 pages. The grand total comes to…

525 books (and getting about halfway through another)

If people are stupid enough to blow a few grand on an online course instead of using their fucking brains and figuring out how to spend their money wisely - LET THEM!

No, but if I had, I would have learned the lesson and moved on. That's how you do it - you learn the value of money. Well, if you work...

Two MA's and a thousand books a year and this thing still finds the time for bellgab. Praise MV!

You're so willing to pay for a worthless fence, you must gorge nightly on the Frankenfoods offered at Trump's beloved McDonald's! That would explain the brain dead comments.

We are paying twice that amount for a worthless central and south america.

QuoteLet's say you try to read a book each week and end up reading one every two weeks. That's still 26 books in one year, more than you probably realized you could complete. Even if you read 20 books in one year, you are still reading much more than the average person.

This is why I rarely comment on these posts: you offer nothing as an alternative. Trump is poo - got it.
...and the wall is bad.  - no alternative.
... and everyone who didn't vote for who you wanted is a racist,.. or a bigot,.. or a homophobe,.. or a sexist.
You have nothing to offer but insult and then you wonder why people grow weary of you.

Indeed we are, but they're hardly worthless. In fact it's our demand for their products that fuels the cartels violence that fuels mass exodus towards our borders.

Most of America is aware of what these guys think about reading and education.

Time for you to LEARN:

https://www.nationalreview.com/2019/01/higher-education-decline-propaganda-intolerance/

Few believe any more that current liberal-arts programs have prepared graduates to write persuasively and elegantly, to read critically and to think inductively while drawing on a wide body of literary, linguistic, historical, artistic, and philosophical knowledge. In fairness, that is no longer the aim of higher education. When students at tony colleges present petitions objecting to free speech or the right of guests to give lectures, they are usually full of grammatical errors and often incoherent.

Colleges, with some major exceptions (Hillsdale most preeminently), simply do not ensure the teaching of such skills any more. Of course, there remain wonderful classes, courageous deans who buck trends, and hardworking faculty who teach splendidly and have received modest compensation and little credit for their yeoman work. But they are a minority and a shrinking one at that.

By and large, the bachelor’s degree, even in a liberal-arts major, no longer certifies that a graduate will be able to read, reason, compute, or draw on a body of knowledge far more effectively than those without an undergraduate degree. The decline of the university has been an ongoing tragedy since the 1960s, but the erosion has accelerated because of ideological bias and its twin, incompetence.

II. The Therapeutic Curriculum

Most college courses in literature and history â€" despite their sometimes anachronistic and traditional titles â€" focus on “diversity.” That is, they present a play or novel, or a past historical period or event, in terms of how it adversely portrayed or affected the poor, women, and minorities. The larger agenda is ideological: to instruct how the superior present can craft remedies to ensure that incorrect thinking and the biases throughout history and literature do not contaminate contemporary life and society.

What is often forgotten is that political correctness comes at a price of not learning a language, or reading the plays of Shakespeare, or mastering the basic outlines of the Civil War or World War II â€" given that for youth learning is so often a zero-sum game with only limited hours in the day for study and reading.

Today’s students, like their professors, not only do not possess, but feel no need to possess, familiarity with Thucydides, or Dante’s Inferno, or some idea of the Napoleonic Wars, or the work of T. S. Eliot. And at least one reason they do not is that teaching and reading these texts and studying complex histories are far more difficult tasks than various therapeutic -studies courses about prejudices, biases, and -isms and -ologies. Becoming woke is not the same as being educated. The former is easy and seeks the affirmation of the majority, the latter harder and often a lonely experience.

Finally, the morality of the curriculum is upside down. If the purpose of the contemporary university is to empower the marginalized and the previously discriminated against, then it would be hard to envision classes that could more deprive first-generation college students of the very analytic tools and knowledge that might ensure their success.
