I once had a professor who read so voraciously that he could practically cycle through several different women in a single day. To be honest, he just didn't have enough saliva to turn those massive, heavy pages, so he had to resort to some rather drastic measures—he’d end up sticking his index fingers into vaginas. 🎉 Now, I'm not entirely sure how much truth there is to those claims about reading 300 pages a day, but I know for a fact that I always felt a certain sense of discomfort whenever I tried it. I suppose it might stem from my own narrow perspectives; I tend to operate under this assumption that people simply don't have the mental capacity to process that much information at once. Generally speaking, I struggle to see the point in reading anything that doesn't force you to think deeply, question your assumptions, dig deeper, or push yourself out of your comfort zone. To me, the whole essence of reading is about absorbing the lived experiences of others in a way that stimulates us in various ways. If we're just churning through 300 pages every single day, we aren't leaving any room for that actual stimulation; we’re basically just reading so we can claim we’ve read.
