Edit: Also get some books on intentional communities and group survival while you’re at it.

Edit2: Sorry just looked at the title didn’t read the text. I mean you could try sorting by category or you could get an online list from a librarian about queer books and then manually download from that list of books.

Edit3: You might also be able to ask for help from the person who made this list: https://openlibrary.org/collections/LGBTQ. Most of the books seem to come from the internet archive which makes it easier for a mass download I believe.

I want to say that I appreciate the effort.

Curating this volume of content is impossible, and there are legitimate dangers in giving the government too much ability to shut down free speech

Agreed. We have already given more than enough control to the government in other areas of our lives. We now have alternative social platforms that give us a chance to actually have more direct control over our media landscape which hasn’t been true in such a long time.

you have to build a society that doesn’t want to engage with bigotry, and explore and question its own assumptions (and that’s not ever a fixed state, it’s an ongoing process).

I think this is what they were trying to get across when they mention media ecology. They were pointing out how the structure of where media is shared and its sources can be more important for quashing disinformation than the actual content itself.

So when something is shared through YouTube there are certain pressures that over time mold the source of information into a specific format.

I’d say the same is true of the Fediverse as well. That’s why its important we get the structure here right because it will determine what kind of platform this place turns into.

Edit: grammar

Yeah it is totally valid. Actually just came across someone that was talking about something similar to this.

Edit: The main idea was that we as humans tend to get trapped in something called progress traps where as we advance technology we use that advance to over exploit our environment leading us to more problems down the line.

Ok that does seem doable but how would I combine the paper at the end to create a colored picture?

Also THUNK. Not necessarily that close to what is on your list but I like his takes on philosophical takes on a bunch of technical fields.

Thx for the feedback. If I was to try this what do you think I could do get black rather than brown dye? Would I have to use flowers that are closer to cyan, magenta, and yellow so it is closer to the cmyk color model or does that not help?

Also yeah idk if the contrast problem could be solved.

Trying to do say three layers would then take six hours, so whatever you’re using as a mask has to be super absorbent or reflective to UV (think very thick black paper or tinfoil). Anything else, and your underlying layers are going to bleach somewhat.

Do I need to do it in multiple layers? Also I was planning on trying to use the paper as a replacement for photo paper in pinhole photography with it instead of a mask.
