operation get rid of stuff continues , another dozen books I'm never going to read are sorted to go out , more knickknacks are going

I have a whole bookshelf full of books I'm never going to read. They're decorative and/or it's a load bearing bookshelf

[โ€“] Seagoon_@aussie.zone 2 points 3 months ago

load bearing bookshelf ...lol

and someone who likes book covers is a biblioplegic and there is nothing wrong with that, many are works of art in themselves

another half dozen dvds are out

I'm at the point where the movie shelf is full. I can't buy any more blu rays unless I sacrifice something. It's a great system: it means I'm very resistant to impulse buys and anything I do buy will improve my overall collection by design.

I just built a fileserver and stuff films on that

[โ€“] Seagoon_@aussie.zone 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

until they are lost, further, every dvd I buy has extras like commentaries and that's what I'm buying them for

[โ€“] Taleya@aussie.zone 1 points 3 months ago

oh I will buy movies that are worthy of it. But fileserving the average keeps them to hand and clears up cabinet space
