GRIFF. Did you say, somewhere, to read the book 'Sapiens' ??

Because I was at the airport & realized I'd forgotten to bring a book, so I bought a copy of Sapiens for 20 bucks, and, wow. Great stuff.

Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind

I haven't read a book in a while and was halfway convinced that the simulation didn't support reading large volumes anymore, hence the appearance of magical, dopamine-hijacking, "small chunk" reading devices in all of our pockets.
