Just finished an Australian history of bad language, artfully put together by Amanda Laugesen, cos why not see how many example swears one can record dispassionately while chronicling the arc and politics of bad language? #books

Just finished Andrew Wear’s “Solved!”.

It’d be lovely to see principles of success adopted and sustained - however the “what next” chapter feels a bit naively optimistic in 2025 in the face of efforts to undermine collective benefit for small-group gain.

Good ideas that need a bigger audience

So valued, where do I invoice my time to? Also I did the checkout myself; when do I get reimbursed for that?

On the upside, the computer gets it, based on this summary of comments on the article.

Maybe it could also write the WaPo's leadership position endorsements, going forward.
