This paper is worth a read:
"Over-reliance on English hinders
cognitive science"

And how other languages can have advantages for expressing some things.

Yes, it will take more hard work to hold the West accountable to make sure the #LossAndDamage fund truly helps those who are hurting the most. And yes, it was disappointing that there was no language on fully phasing out fossil fuels. But this is a historic step forward. Let's recognize it as such and celebrate those who got us here.

The #LossAndDamage fund represents the first time the UN climate summit has formally acknowledged the need for climate reparations as part of climate action. Western countries resisted this for 30 years. Global South, indigenous, youth activists overcame powerful interests.

This open-access book by David Nemer shows how the oppressed by technology don't just reject it, but consciously resist & appropriate it. Their experiences with digital technologies enable them to navigate both digital & nondigital sources of oppression.

Time for my first Fediverse edition of "multiple things can be true at the same time!":

  • - There is absolutely no way in which a public Fediverse account run by a cop, spook, or government agency endangers your safety any more than it is endangered by otherwise posting publicly
  • - Formally allowing (and INVITING) cops, spooks, and government agencies onto your instance sends a message about how much you care about the safety and comfort of marginalized people (for clarity, the message it sends is "we don't care at all")
  • - A lot of people do in fact work for the government, and even DHS, in extremely boring and non-cop/spook-adjacent jobs, and i'm pretty iffy on the idea of deplatforming all of them completely; HOWEVER,
  • - They should either shut up about their day jobs or start their own instances where they're not up in everyone's business. One of the tradeoffs you make, working for cops and spooks, is that a lot of people hate you, and they are completely justified in doing so!

    I’m old enough to remember how a couple of weeks ago some prominent pundits were saying that the problem is everyone is too tough on the tech sector.
