hello hello HELLO! so happy to see you on here, it feels like a personal win when a twitter moot goes to dw (especially when they are clever and interesting and one I'm fond of hehe).
Agree that as I get older I think more in longform, and my thoughts can't be captured in a short snappy way anymore, and I don't have the daily-time-commitments to be scrolling twitter. there's just a lot of joy in coming back to dw and being able to catch up on months of info from a page.
Would love to read your reviews and thoughts! I see a lot of "media round ups" or monthly highlights or top 5 [insert theme/ship/trope]. And I know what you mean re capturing thoughts soon after you experience them!! I wrote a post on it called [learning to be reflective about reading] if you'll be interested https://hwarium.dreamwidth.org/8947.html Around last year I read a bit about memory and realised the importance of processing your thoughts immediately before your brain washes it out. Let me know if you want any follow recs or article recs! If you would like to find people, go on your friend's reading pages and see who they follow :)
Keen to have you here and to have future dw chats!!
