Whatever I can't find at the library is what I buy.
Whatever I do find is what I borrow.

As an anarchist, libraries are antithetical to my beliefs.

Libraries hoard intellectual property, stealing them from their authors. All property is theft, tangible or otherwise. By buying a copy of the book, I am purchasing a right to the author's intellectual property.

i love hanging out with homeless people and fuckhead single moms bringing their 8 kids with them to check out the bee movie for the 15th time while i try in vain to find any interesting book by an author that i didn't hear about in high school english class!

we should defund all of them honestly, most of them are run by temps and interns anyway so nobody is going to lose their livelihood except the total bloodsuckers on top.

My local library doesn't have anything I want. I could request books fro a larger branch but that takes about a week, then when I do go in I have to dodge the homeless drug addicts who sleep there. It's not appealing.

when the paradigm shifted to medical terminology and diognosis for metophors I was bored and am only glad to watch those descriptors die. And if this generation begins using eco-terms for everything, I'll salt the fucking earth you all stand on and let out an effluent the which no sqawking gull will ever be clean from. Kill these methophors now before the "avant-gard" runs them through the sand and recycles this shit.

Intellectual property is a spook. Buy a book, rent it, borrow it, download it, or steal it. If you can touch it, it's yours.

>> No.12022853

If it's at my library, I borrow it. If I like it and can see myself rereading it, I buy it. If not, I don't.
If it's not at my library I buy it, but try to read it as soon as possible to minimise the pseudery of my shelf
