Containing multitudes
Had to laugh when I opened my kindle app and was met with recommendations for a LitRPG book and a mauve-coloured cocktail-sporting blonde/redhead romance sitting side by side. Underneath them, a book about the bible.
What must The Algorithm think of me? That I need cleansing at least.
I've barely been on kindle so maybe it's panicking and throwing everything at me just to see what I do. Someone who has most recently read eighteenth century gothic novels, trashy romances, and isekai. I'm not going to defend the indefensible.
But you know, as the man says, Do I contradict myself? Very well then I contradict myself. (I am large. I contain multitudes.)
No one would guess I love a big dumb monster movie. I'm very into a Victoriana blouse despite the fact everything else I wear bar underwear is from the 'men's section'. It takes me two minutes to slowly lower myself into a 28° swimming pool and I also swim in 13° lakes for fun. I like looking at the bag when I give blood but the pimple popper videos my wife watches make me feel nauseous.
There's nowt so queer as folk. We all have our quirks, one might say politely. Less politely, we are all utter weirdos. Part of being human. Our weird surprising parts are our most interesting parts.
