@cavar @litodons Thank you for writing this! The idea of writing as doing something together with the people who made the affordances for doing so really struck me-- not least as the user of digital tools made by friends no longer with us.

@cavar @litodons When I saw those lines, I immediately went to save them and the URL for future pondering and reference! If you're feeling up for it at some point, maybe we could grab Zoom coffee sometime in the new year?
