@Lady oh yeah i’m just saying there is a path from there to understanding public domain

Like i’ll grant i’m not a typical subject but

@Lady you're joking but that was legit how i found out about them in the first place, when i got an ipod touch and i was like 'hey ibooks has all this free stuff, neat'

@Lady ok but all of project gutenberg is on ibooks

uh, warning for just sorta blithely ignoring the entire existence of native peoples when discussing the settlement of australia and america

the version i'm reading was kindly pirated for me by my professor so i can't link it, but if you'd like to read this it appears the internet archive also has a copy https://archive.org/details/2917177.0001.001.umich.edu/page/2/mode/2up

CRIME AND CRIMINALS
Address to the Prisoners in the Chicago Jail

by Clarence Darrow

Preface
This address is a stenographic report of a talk made to the prisoners in the Chicago jail. Some of my good friends have insisted that while my theories are true, I should not have given them to the inmates of a jail.

Realizing the force of the suggestion that the truth should not be spoken to all people, I have caused these remarks to be printed on rather good paper and in a somewhat expensive form. In this way the truth does not become cheap and vulgar, and is only placed before those whose intelligence and affluence will prevent their being influenced by it.

@Sibylle since you said you spun i thought you might be familiar! If you haven’t been completely deluged with follow recommendations yet, it might be a good tag to look through for people to follow even if you don’t plan to participate

There’s also a fair number of gardeners and other plant people on fedi! If you havent yet been pointed towards the trunk ( https://communitywiki.org/trunk ) i believe they have a couple different follow recommendation lists you might enjoy ( i know they have one for permaculture, pretty sure there are a few others too)

@AspiringLuddite you can do it on gas! I never even bothered measuring before I had to use induction!
