Ah, thanks for the correction I'll edit the comment. I always think NC for some reason, but both Carolinas are pretty interchangable in my mind.

Huh, that's somehow way worse. I always was under the impression that it was only Myrtle Beach.
I'll copy my response to the other person who was also confused by the reference:
In America, there's a very popular car windshield decal sticker that people put on that says "Salt Life." It specifically just means someone visited a popular beach vacation spot called Myrtle Beach, SC. The people who put it on tend to being almost exclusively sporty douchebags and suburban moms.
That's about it.
Edit: changed NC to SC

I'll never not read those stickers as "Slut Life" because of the idiotic font they chose.
Hahahah yeeeah. I'm technically a slow reader too, but it's more because I have to keep rereading paragraphs when I stop paying attention, so I'd be more like you probably.
My gf is a completely different brand of neurospicy and she just could not grasp that not only do I have to read the words but I have to actively make sure my brain is trying to comprehend them too or I just go on autopilot.
Hello fellow ADHD adult! I've heard the advice about using the double medium before but never given it a shot. Honestly it would probably work great, but I've just never committed to it.
With children's books most of the page count will be in illustrations. You'll go through them very quickly.
I'm always jealous of people who can listen to podcasts or audiobooks. I genuinely can't listen to them and do something else at the same time so I have to sit twiddling my thumbs the entire time and get antsy. If I try listen and maybe do the dishes or something, I'll blink and have no idea what's been said for the past 15 minutes and have to go back anyway. It kind of sucks.
Yeah that's definitely where that amount is coming from if it's been well over a decade. Books are actually really fricken expensive!
Yeah she easily reads into the 200+ range which is about the same pace as you. A lot her non-work related books end up being audiobooks though. I personally need to feel paper in my hands or I have trouble focusing, but I also almost exclusively read high fantasy for fiction and philosophy for non-fiction. I'm lucky to finish half a dozen books a year on a good year!
Exactly. There isn't anything about this that is actually news or noteworthy. A low enrollment club with the goal of making waves isn't being endorsed by a faculty member that doesn't want to deal with the headache for a club that's going to die again in two years.
This is just normal University administration and operation and yet here we are reading an article about it from a major news outlet.
