100% agree (except for the squalor part). I continually am trying to get rid of shit. No matter how many boxes I take to goodwill or stacks of books I pawn off on unsuspecting friends, though, it never seems to make enough of an impact.

speaking of hey nowaypablo I have a book you might like, I am not sure if I am going to share it with you via little bits on Hubski or mail it to you. Also I think you mailed me something but I never got it.

And as another addendum, the problem with continually winnowing down my collection of books is that now it is very hard to part with any of them as I have Reasons why I've kept them so long. I want less books, but I don't want to get rid of any of the books I have. They're "essential."

Not gonna lie my package to you is still sitting on my desk with an urgent red post-it but I don't know how to use the mail. and it's so not worth the anticipation now. How do I know how many stamps to put on it help.

Don't waste a book on me post it here and I'll read it on my own I promise. Best a book hoarder than anything else, really.

I have a new address now FWIW but yes, the post office will tell you. Sheesh.

I'm glad I didn't miss it!

it is called "Soul Pancake" and it is a book full of questions. It's based off of a website Rainn Wilson and some other dudes made. Don't use the website, it's crap and boring, but the questions compiled in the book (with lists and other activities worth ignoring) are pretty fuckin' excellent. That's because I'm sure Wilson and his pal sorted through thousands in order to find the best and more recurrent questions. Seemed like it would be good for #vaguequestionsbypablo.

I'll send some samples via PM tonight maybes.
