Looks good, but poll: What book should one performatively read with a brooding scowl while wearing this?

[–] subunit317@lemmy.world 19 points 1 week ago (1 children)
  • The Egyptian Book of the Dead
  • The Book of Thoth
  • Anything by HP Lovecraft or Edgar Allan Poe
  • Dracula
  • Interview with the Vampire

Those would be my picks. They're worth reading in a non-performative way. But it can be performative too lol.

Those are more inline with the vibe. I was thinking a doubletake worthy curve-ball, like 50 Shades of Grey, or a textbook on butterfly taxonomy or something.
