I had a lot of nose bleeds as a kid, so my sister would never let me borrow her books because I’d always give them back with drops of blood on random pages.

it’s just because you were growing your brain with all that knowledge.

There’s a special place in hell for people who ruin a book for a meme.
Is basically the same place where the deep-shit who burned books are roasted inside boilers. But you just stay outside, tied to a confortable door watching them burn from porthole of the hatch. Then once in a while a big green like button lit up and a steam of vapor boils your face.

Have you ever read a Clive Cussler novel? That shit is everywhere and they’re objectively terrible. I would not shed a single tear for the smug fuck who wrote them if all his books got bean stains on them.

Mass printed paperbacks aren’t sacred texts. Everyone should feel free to write on them, highlight them, cut them apart, paint on them, and make art with them. Especially books made by a trash bigot.

your enthusiasm for protecting books is commendable, but not all books deserve your reverence. Mein Kampf comes to mind, and some more recent books that only spread hate and prejudice.

What if it’s a copy of Atlas Shrugged?

Mmm… ok… then he sit a bit backwards and the steam cook a chicken instead of his face. But he’s hungry, and no chicken.
History of evil is something we need as well. If nothing as an example of what we can become if we didn’t keep our shit in check.

Book could have already been damaged to be fair. Does it matter if it’s just ruining it more?

Looks like it might be AI to me. Check the right hand and the bit of book near it.

Is a first edition of Harry Potter actually valuable?
Grimy@lemmy.world 3 hours ago
The first few are 10k and up. The first one had like 500 printed only at first. After the third or so, they become much less valuable.

It’s easier, just glue the already read pages with chicken, euh, gluyey.

Contrariwise there is a certain synergy being a book boy and bidet boy
