I really find very little idealization in the concept that “youth” is the superior option to aging. The act of getting older isn’t anything I can control (the sands of time march on regardless after all) so I find no purpose in regretting something I never really enjoyed anyways.

Here’s the deal, folks: the internet kind of sucks now. That may be a bold statement from someone who used to aspire for internet fame, but, in my opinion, the whole thing has gone incredibly downhill in the past couple years.

The motivation to read can be wanton compared to the undemanding luxuries of digital entertainment. Reading challenges encourage people to set a number of books to read within a time frame (usually a year) as motivation to read more.
