Pirate it if the Author is a POS. if not, try to find it elsewhere for cheaper. For example, my parents have Amazon Prime, and there are always a bunch of Kindle offers included, like free books monthly and shi

I would never advocate for piracy, and I would NEVER recommend that you got to Anna’s Archive because you can find any textbook you need there and it’s totally free.

Pirating def does not make you a bad person when it comes to textbooks. Money goes to the publisher not the author

If there’s a textbook for school, that’s $17 that’s not the actual textbook as well as very good point none of the people who actually worked on making the book ever receive any of the money when it comes to school by textbooks.

Or if the price is obscene (there’s was a book published from Wattpad years ago that was like $60 and I pirated it. It was the same exact shit I read on Wattpad)((my grandfather still bought the book for me for Christmas))

If you like Markiplier, him and his childhood friends do Distractible. Two of them compete to entertain the judge the most and I’m loving that so far. Literally anything else from Woodelf Prods is good too if you like that.

Maby but we pay for them to look at our application to go to the college. We then pay for housing, which is one payment then we pay again just to be able to go there and we pay once more for each class we take.
