I’m an avid reader. Books from authors I like here tend to take months to years to get translated and into a library. I read everything in English now because of that.

Just one point of view: I’m too poor to even buy food, but pirating books keeps me informed about current affairs and shit. It also enables me to stay alive because I still have access to my favourite authors, which makes me so happy and try to stay alive for one more release date.
Full disclosure: I’ve gone from a very good job to debilitating disability over 10 years in Europe. Also, before this, I bought hardback books of everything I liked. I’ll do this again as soon as I can afford it. I’ll always support authors as much as I can.
Isn’t it Russian? I was told long ago so could be wrong?
Thank you! This is amazing, I’m really out of the game lately.
Soo…no more libgen?
I don’t know, I like my vagina but have often wished I was born male, just for how much easier life would be. This is biased of course.
On the other hand, I’ve never ever been mad or jealous of other people who wanted to change their gender or be themselves sexually (lbgtq+). Isn’t none of my business and people should have the right to do with their genitals as they please. It’s a basic human right, just like abortion.
We should disconnect our bodies from any labels is my point. That way, no government or religion can have an influence on it. The ‘My body, my choice’ is still the right way to go.
I’ve always wondered even as a child why we can’t get rid of genders and just call it human and nonhuman (to include our alien friends).
It would make life so much easier for everybody, except for writers I guess.
Yes, besides living in a rural area with a shitty library that has only books online I read in middle school, I have agorophobia. So making the trek there isn’t that simple.
Even the biggest university library’s online books are not up to date. They take years to get translated, so instead of waiting for that (since I’m not sure whether I’ll even be alive by then) I just read books in their original language as soon as they come out.
And stop making fun of disabled people.
