Peter Alexander -- 9d Physical books are actually an obsession of mine ever since I first walked into Strand Bookstore “home to 18 miles books” as a much younger man. All second hand.

Drives my wife insane. replyPhysical books are actually an obsession of mine ever since I first walked into Strand Bookstore “home to 18 miles books” as a much younger man. All second hand.

I have an unhealthy obsession over why it is so many people feel compelled to do podcasts with as many books aspossible as their background.A subconscious “appeal to authority” vibe if there ever was one.https://blossom.primal.net/593ec81c41cde23f1ce804db9b2266656a816099f945bc5b68e922ae0d881a8e.jpg
