I agree, and what we know changes over time, but that said, we could not have had a covid-19 vaccine available decades ago because we had never seen that virus before...and nothing I could say was going to change their absolute belief that they knew the truth and I was just wrong.

Someone told me "they" had the covid vaccine for decades, yes even before covid was a thing, whilst telling me they knew more about vaccines than I did (they never did a degree, ai briefly worked on meningitis vaccine research 😅), not sure how helpful being open will be against conspiracy theorists.

Earlier this year I started back up by going back to books I loved before, but now Im back to struggling to get into any book.

You're probably right, I need to give myself time, I'm not always very good at being patient with myself.

I did, however, buy a number of new comics and graphic novels recently at Malta Comic Con so might try those as a way to get back into reading again. 😁

I'm not anti audiobook and think they are great for some people, but I find them really off-putting. I will listen to radio plays but not podcasts or audiobooks for some reason. I also hate instructions given in video format, maybe it's something about listening to the person telling me what to do.

That's so true, I used to always finish a book if I started it, took me a long time to realised I didn't *have* to do that. If it is actively difficult to read for whatever reason I can stop, I can always go back to it later if it's something I want to read but just didn't have the spoons at first.

Hello! I just posted my first post too, and now my discovery feed is full of people doing the same.

It's wild. There's so many of us 🤪

That is just lovely.

I think I might like it here a lot more.
