I don’t know what it is but I feel like there is something especially enjoyable about reading on a train or bus. Like I would be fine with making my commute longer because it dosen’t feel like wasted time since I am reading. Also its just nice to be stuck somewhere for a bit with nothing to do but wait and be forced to read.
Maybe, but it would have been nicer to just be there already. If I want to read I can do that on my couch - or I have the option of doing something else in that time. There is no benefit to being on transit, the purpose is to be there.
If I’m forced to do something it should be to exercise, which I can’t do on transit.
