I just realized my library card gives me access to an app I can borrow magazines from. And as someone trying to do less Lemmy scrolling at night and more long form reading, I’m wondering where to start.

I generally like politics, philosophy, interesting facts, history, social issues.

Also, I’m not American if that matters.

What’s your favorite magazines!

    I was telling my kid about woods porn. Which we found a lot as kids. Peoples stash in a bag somewhere in the woods. They seemed to be everywhere. God I’m old…

      Back in 2003, me and my friend took a break from band practice.

      He said he had a porn collection so off we went through the woods behind his house. After a while we get to this one tree and there’s a shovel behind it.

      We go back to his house, on the other side is a river. He starts digging in the river back until he pulls out a buried plastic bag. And he just looks horrified when he looks in.

      All the magazines are rotten and broken apart by water.

      I don’t know what he was expecting to happen. Or why he hid the shovel in the woods. The whole time I was so confused.

        We grew up in a very Catholic place that was very poor.I think ours were form men hiding it from families. They didn’t have shops or mancaves or whatever they had the woods.
