Hacker News Reader

I usually read hn on the loo (not a shitpost pun/joke) as idle reading, and sometimes I discover interesting products or news. Aside: it feels like being on the toilet is the most "me time" I get lately, so maybe I should change that lol.

Do you read the book first start to finish, and then add it to your bathroom library after for this random reading, or do you go straight to random loo reads?

Honestly, the toilet is like sacred ground for me these days. No kids, no work, no chores. I can read and be left alone and it is literally the only time of my day that is true.

My family probably thinks I have a severe bowel problem because sometimes I hang out in there for like a half hour.

Same here.

Usually it goes directly too loo reads except maybe the first evening where I'm "excited" of the new toy and read it outside, or if I need it as a reference for some reason.

If I don't have a basic understanding of the topic I read the first few chapters sequentially before starting the random picking, though.
