I love that idea. But it brings up a recurring issue I find: I don’t know
how to do that or where to find those things, so my ability to get a Sudo
Room shirt is locked behind this barrier that is institutional knowledge
(where shit is) and technical knowledge (how to use it).
I think this raises an important question on which I’d like input.
Who among us sees Sudo room as a place to *actively* spread knowledge, and
broaden the ability of members of our community to create things for
themselves, and one another?
Alternatively, who, among us sees sudo room as a *passive* offering for
those capable of making use of it?
This isn’t meant to be a contentious question, but I often think part of
our challenge is in coming to a common understanding of what it is we’re
trying to do. I think part of my tension in interacting with SudoRoom is
that I would like it to be a place where the people who know how to do
things measure their success in how well they bring others along with them.
Whereas I think that the existing expectation is that this is a place for
students to find teachers instead of the other way around. And this
manifests in things such as tools and educational resources being
technically available, but not accessible in an intentional way.
*Bringing this back to the practical: *if someone is willing to show me how
to screen print shirts I would really like to do so. If that’s not
possible, though, I think we should accept that and order shirts. Does
anyone know where these materials are and have the patience to show me?
Also, I agree with Juliana that we should use this to generate revenue. If
we can screen print them, I think we should make a bunch and offer them to
anyone who wants one for free, but ask for a voluntary donation. If we have
to pay for them, though, I think we should just sell them. I’d certainly
prefer homemade though.

There is a silkscreen of the sudoroom logo downstairs

Yes for shirts! You know that can be another

Last thing: I want a Sudo Room shirt. Do we have any shirt designs
floating around? And does anyone want to go in on an order?
Cheers!
