Reading a book from the 1840s and it repeatedly censors "damn" as "d---" because that's too profane to publish.

Anyway the book jumpscared me 374 pages in with a casual n word drop.

The work doesn’t ask for perfection, it asks for honesty. Life works the same way. 📘❤️

I love reading. in fact I love reading so much, that I will re-read the same paragraph 10 times over, in an attempt to pay enough attention to register it properly
