If only there was a megathread about piracy. Oh wait, here it is.
yeah, good point, sorry. that said do you know if any of the sites fit my use case better than others?

Rather than focusing on where to look, better to focus on how to download. Automation is your friend. There is software (like the *arrs) which automate the downloading of content from multiple locations online.
What software? Where do I look for it?

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.
What do you mean about “intentional communities”
Do you know of any existing lists? Unsure if asking local libraries is a good idea
