Anyone else have a redneck family that started dropping off endless truckloads of random used books from various flea markets at your home the very moment they found out that you like to read?

I'm making a push to hoard my books a little more organized. With the space I have on my e-reader, I could easily have thousands of books.
And I intend to take advantage of that. And I think I might keep a local git repo just for the sake of making sure regex formatting changes don't fuck things up.

Thats so cruel. When I mention I like to read my family drops off endless amounts of books at my doorstep.

Godamn, I feel bad about the one book I'm reading on top of the next book "I may or may not read."

This shit seems weirdly disposal/consumerism focused.
Fuck all of this.

If your whole schtick is about decluttering, you should be able to differentiate between "less" and "fewer." Getting things down to a countable number achieves "fewer"-ness.
Also, looking at walls of books sparks joy.

Less junk, fewer things. Less anxiety, fewer panic attacks.
... And I already reached semantic satiation with "fewer."

You'll have to pry my Pratchett collection from my cold, dead hands.

Well she is big on giveaways, as long as youāre not ācleaningā while in fact dumping tons of junk on family members who are equally convinced āoh yeah maybe someday Iāll totally wear thisā¦ā

I'm not sure why you're conflating "don't hoard things you don't need" with consumerism.
There's certainly ways to do that irresponsibly, but it's not part of the philosophy.

No but that sounds fucked up. A book collection should be a carefully curated catalog full of things that you personally love or find great use for, not some sad eclectic mix that looks like a hoarder's pile.

When we moved in, the neighbors daughter was curious about the "new ones", and asked if she could help.
I told her that I would be putting the books on the shelves the next day, and she promised to come over.
I don't know what she expected (when we visited them, I never saw a book in their place), but she was shocked when she saw a large pile of boxes. I had just finished installing the first wall of shelves, and told her that we would have to sort the boxes out, only about 10k books were for the living room, the other would go up into the studio...

Iāve seen interviews with him where he mentioned: āI was reading a synopsis of a story that sounded really interestingā only to discover that it was about a book that he had written. And apparently he has no memory of writing Cujo.
Thereās ādoing cokeā and ādoing coke so much I forgot I wrote a fucking best selling novelā.

Not with that attitude.
