I Wrote This

If only we could all agree on what is essential.

🔗 Being quietly radicalised by being on holiday (Interconnected):

We all form a government which is a kind of enlarged co-operative really. Why don’t we make a basket of essentials, democratically argued about and iterated over time, then nationalise not-for-profits to run supply chains and shops for them?

Just… take essentials out of the for-profit bit of the economy.

Our priorities have lost their way somewhere along the line.

I remember reading and appreciating this post when Matt first wrote it back in April. It reappeared in my timeline this morning and I still appreciate it.

We need to stop talking about discovery.

🔗 The indie web should be a universe of discovery:

The indieweb should feel like the Norrington Room: an expansive world of different voices, opinions, modes of expression, and art that you can explore, peruse, or have curated for you. It’s not about any particular goal aside from the goal of being enriched by people sharing their lived experiences, creativity, and expertise. It’s a journey of discovery, conversation, and community, not a journey of extraction.
