The subcategorization/tropefication of popular fiction has been very bad in general, both for authors and readers.
The death of browsing is part of the reason art is the way it is now. Our opinions are largely fed to us by algorithms. Spending a spare 15 minutes wandering around a bookstore or comic shop or video rental place was how you found stuff you wouldn't ordinarily pick up and thereby expanded your taste
Bookselling is like the most "people go to the store and buy what looks cool to them without a particular agenda" type business left, and your purchases have a huge influence on what is ordered, what is displayed, and what is recommended.

I've never encountered more students who say they hate reading. Students who want to be teachers, writers, or both. I wonder if "hate" means "I have trouble reading," but I also talk with so many students who write in a genre but refuse to read in it. They can't see themselves in relation to others.

he was superb in two great bands. My hot take is Primal Scream is a better band than the Stone Roses.
"The Stone Roses actually had the audacity and Manchester swagger to turn down supporting the Rolling Stones in their early years, and indeed, Terry Wogan"

Mani, symbol of the ‘90s Manchester music scene, will be sorely missed
Stone Roses bassist Gary ‘Mani’ Mounfield died aged 63 years old, a sad loss to the Manchester music scene, but he leaves behind some great memories

one of the reasons I enjoy reading poetry is that it helps me realize I’m not living in a simulstion. There is pleasure in that

New Mexico and Boise State wins tonight means the Mountain West championship game participants will be determined by computer rankings, regardless of whether or not UNLV wins tomorrow.
Either a three-way tie or four-way tie.

I see some book piracy discourse, and, to make a positive argument in favor of buying books, your marginal ability to influence what books get published and support the careers of writers you like is massive compared to most other forms of media.
