Well-read and well-scrolled look the same in a bio. They sound nothing alike in a conversation.

Reading and scrolling both count as taking in information, and they leave very different residue. One arrives in long connected arguments you have to hold in your head; the other arrives in fragments designed to be complete in themselves. Only the first gives you something to reason with later, which is why the difference shows the moment someone asks a follow-up.

Notice whether you can still explain what you took in yesterday. Where you cannot, it passed through rather than in. Spend part of the week on something long enough to require holding a thread.
