libraries are dope

[anymany]

i dont thin enough people take full advantage of their libraries, unfortunately, i dont either. most people dont know how lucky they if they have a nice looking library. libraries nowadays can scan stuff for you, print stuff out. some have really nice and fast computers. one time my pc was having trouble running a scratch code thing but the library pc had no problem with it. plus they usually give you 1 free hour everyday, forever, just for signing up. some fancy ones have 3d printer where they'll really just pint some 3d model you download. lots of them have tax help and someone to guide you. many have a programs where they give out free books period. lots of clubs.

when i lived in mexico. there used to be some home business that could print or scan things for you, you usually had to fo to an internet cafe in order to get stuff done there which was a bit pricey. overall, kinda inconvenient

seriously, check out what your local library has to offer besides book loans. they should have a little booklet with events that are coming up. take advantage of it bc, if you pay taxes(i dont know you), you are literally paying for it and not taking advantage of it

If you like comic books you can check em out there. Did that shit back in high school... no way I'm paying $3 an issue when I can check out an entire volume for free...

actually buying the manga/ lightnovel is a guilty pleasure of mine albeit a very expensive one. but i did check out a lot of books

Ain't you read those backwards or some shit?

Back when I was in elementary school I was able to read super fast for some reason, and when we would read a book together as a class, I would always read way faster than everyone else till I realized I could read at the same pace as them if I flipped the book upside down and read that way.... Maybe you can try that cos if you read it upside down you'd turn the pages all normal-like.

I can still read text upside down to this day, though it's never come in handy but once or twice.

lmao, what a flex. i have dyslexia (idk how i spelled that word right the first time) so i've always been slow at reading

I used to go to the nearby library to read about quantum theory/gravity/string theory when I was young. Stopped going there when ebooks became more popular.

libraries often have book sales or even giveaways. i know of a couple that have even where they give you a bag anf you can take as many books as you can fit in there and keep them for very low or even free
