@impishgnoll i mean, it was probably teasing, but this is very useful information we're getting from this. anywho time to >::3c go >:::3c do >::3c things >:::3c
@impishgnoll you said, and i quote, "asking for a friend named deme uwu". unless you meant you wanted the friend's name to have the uwu in it too...?

Library socialism
" Library Socialism is connected to several strains in radical thought, like usufruct -- the idea that property could be held in common, but that individuals could assume control over them as needed and enjoy both their use and the use of the fruits of the property, but on condition that they not destroy the property and that they return it when they're done with it.
Also connected is "the irreducible minimum": the commitment by a society to ensure that every person who lives in it must have the basics for happy, fulfilled life, regardless of their status.
Finally, there is "complementarity," the idea that the world can be improved by combining the things we find in it -- just as different metals can make alloys that are stronger than the sum of their parts, the right combinations of our selves and our work can be more than any one of us can accomplish on our own."
