post The age-appropriate rubber dinghies of the sunlit uplands
In May 2021, I co-authored a post with Sahdya Darr titled β€œIs government preparing to censor discussions about migration?”, where we fleshed out how the then-Home Secretary was leveraging the draft Online Safety Bill for explicitly political purposes.

Tbh, I don't expect most people to really read most of what I say, especially when it comes to pointing how the influence capitalism has over their thinking and approaches to life. I've been told to my face that "it is what it is" and I always have to remember that this is what …

post from iOS Shortcut Actions for Micropub posting
I recently lamented about how few options there are for Micropub posting on iOS now that Indigenous was pulled from the app store. I had a hunch that the Shortcuts app could be a solution since Micropub takes pretty simple cURL requests, and after some testing to figure it out I …
