I know I'm not really a normal kind of guy when the kind of book I would love to re-read again isn't a novel or a non-fiction but the Star Wars Essential Atlas

It really takes into account so many worldbuilding points and plot issues and makes them into a coherent narrative presented as an in-universe encyclopedia with a deep respect for the lore. Remarkable piece of literature. I'm re-reading it for the 10th time this year.

i stopped giving a shit about "legit" purchases of digital products after i spent $80 on the entire Dark Horse collection of Trigun/Trigun Maximum ebook mangas, learning that I only got access to reading them through a proprietary website ereader function, couldn't download them, and couldn't get a refund, and then literally only a year later, getting an e-mail stating that Dark Horse was shutting down that part of their company and I wouldn't even be able to read them anymore. Fuck that

Pirate shit. Don't feel bad for it. It's not "your fault" that artists, independent or otherwise, can't make a living. You downloading an album or ebook for free isn't the cause of the problem. The cause is capitalism, plain and simple, and pirating is a lucky loophole that companies are still trying to stomp out.

McGuffin that lets people steal your bones.
