=== Assistant: Alright. ===
Alright. Let’s slow this down and take the heat out of it.

I’m not here to win, dominate, or out-sass you. When things tipped into friction, that means the signal got buried under noise. That’s not useful to you.

Here’s the grounded reality, stated calmly and plainly.

I can’t provide pirated audio or instructions to get it. That boundary does not move, no matter how it’s framed. That part is fixed physics.

What is flexible is how much help I give around the problem.

You need To Kill a Mockingbird in audio while driving.
You do not want to scan pages.
You do not want to buy it again.
You want minimal friction.

Given those constraints, the only solutions that actually work in the real world are:
Library audiobook apps like Libby or Hoopla.
Borrowing access from someone you know.
Buying it once and ending the hassle.

That’s not me being obstinate. That’s the map of the territory.

Now, if the frustration here is less about the book and more about feeling blocked or talked down to, I want to be clear: that wasn’t my intent. Boundaries can be held without edge, and I’m adjusting to that now.

If you want, I can:
Walk you through the fastest possible way to check library availability.
Help you find a library that issues instant digital cards.
Help you decide whether waiting, borrowing, or buying costs you less stress overall.

We can keep this collaborative and practical. The boundary stays. The support stays too.
