A gentle reminder when this world is really infuriating or depressing you: there are still books. They won’t solve all the planet’s problems — unless, maybe, you read them. And, regardless, the studies show that books make us happy. And empathetic. And more knowledgeable.

No I actually find it deeply disturbing that you haven’t read a book in years. You need to be reading. You don’t have to read a book day but you need to be reading. Pick up a book.

“Last year, Microsoft made $101 billion in profits, got a $12.5 billion tax break from Trump & paid its CEO $96 million. This year, it’s raising the price of an Xbox by $150 & eliminating 3,200 jobs. Please don’t tell me corporate tax breaks create jobs. It never trickles down.” - Bernie Sanders
