I think my conclusion was that I’m glad that other people are at least running the used book stores here, because I want to focus on supporting new artworks and maybe new books, new music. I know of people who do this with private publishing labels and private music labels or even running their own live performance venues or museums, but I’m just focused on how I could help online.

i.e. those overhead costs scare me 😂 it’s like: I don’t want to incur my own overhead costs when I can just go directly to various artists and help them with their costs and that enables them to do great new work where they are, even if they are thousands of miles away. So it’s a lightweight approach that is maybe only possible because of the Internet.
