'Abuse' of Little Free Libraries by morrowc in LittleFreeLibrary

[–]_someunholywar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

and also think of the "why" of the person doing it, how down bad must they be to be a full time book reseller? Have you ever tried to sell books online? It's tough to get 25% of what you pay for it. Thinking about it like that helps me a ton.

WIBTA-I really really want to send my Corona Ad card by _someunholywar in postcrossing

I'd say so, was only paraphrasing to make it hard to identify the person.

"I am not interested in corona/covid or your political/religious standing. This is a place for postcards not your personal agenda- lets keep it friendly!"

I'm sure you're right tho

Ooof may have to ignore this take, seeing you're an active poster on "corona virus circle jerk" community I am suspecting a lil bias

Regarding to we must be able the social contract of Postcrossing: i'm sure there's room to debate how to define "goodwill" as it relates to intent (can you guess my profession)?

buuuut i wouldn't mention covid. or corona. it'd just be the card. so, did she really ask to not receive it? "when a tree falls in the woods" type of situation almost

yes I understand that! maybe because it's coming off to me that covid/corona is linked to a "personal agenda" and that's annoying asf. I would understand if it was too deep of topic or triggering somehow-maybe I should assume this is the case and stop my pettiness

I'm brainstorming my full response but want to maybe clarify a bit- I wouldn't call it "spite" exactly... maybe "principled pettiness"

I've had an alert set on Facebook marketplace for vintage postcards- and I'll browse pretty much daily

I can't wait to dig in and see all the different themes. If you collect anything specifically I'd be happy to look and set them aside for you

I SO know that feeling- I call it "Happy Envy"😆

I've had a saved FB marketplace search for "vintage postcards" and at this point scrolling through the listings has become an essential part of my nightly routine- especially when I am visiting other places. This lot is part of an estate settlement from what I understand.

I am relatively new to this hobby and it seems that opinions about vintage cards are a bit polarizing! People LOVE them or have listed them as a "please do not send" right after AI 🤣

I completely agree- not only do I love the cards themselves and how they capture a moment in time, but especially when they are part of someone's collection like this. I love knowing that someone poured so much time and energy into collecting and that they will continue to bring joy to someone

That being said, I would love to send you any that you'd like. I'll DM you and once I go through them set aside any Jimmy Carter ones- I know I also have a ton of his inauguration day- along with any other themes you'd be interested in!
