Any tips on what to do with my old Gaiman books/comics?
Donate them? Sell them? Idk who would even want them at this point.
I don’t feel right throwing books out, but I definitely don’t want these on my shelf anymore either

The death of browsing is part of the reason art is the way it is now. Our opinions are largely fed to us by algorithms. Spending a spare 15 minutes wandering around a bookstore or comic shop or video rental place was how you found stuff you wouldn't ordinarily pick up and thereby expanded your taste
Bookselling is like the most "people go to the store and buy what looks cool to them without a particular agenda" type business left, and your purchases have a huge influence on what is ordered, what is displayed, and what is recommended.

TFW you wish twin children into existence, but like a Franciscan Monk illuminating bibles, you forgot what a baby's face looks like so your children are born looking 35 years old.
