They're a 10, but they only read one specific genre...
They're a 4. I'm an English teacher, and to know me is to know that's straight up unacceptable. You gotta expand your horizons buddy. The literary world is TOO DAMN BIG!

Y'all, follower count is horseshit. It is not a reliable metric of popularity or success. It has not been for years. Come live in 2025 with the rest of us.

The goal in life is not to know the ending it is to enjoy the process.
It's like if they asked AI what the way a person's life should ultimately turn out and it told them, "you die", so they decided to just do that now instead of wasting time with years and years of thinking and working and effort.
