👁️ I wonder if CrucialTracks RSS publishing mechanism is down❓

👁️ Clearly a while since I was here - bus stop not just gone - disappeared❗️

👁️ Are you allowed to quote yourself❓

It’s not solvable by better ‘engagement’ frameworks alone - it needs actual power to be rebalanced.

The publishing philosophy fits right in. (My bold)

A lot of audience discovery is people buying ads from Mark Zuckerberg, right? I would rather not give money to Mark Zuckerberg. I would rather spend money on journalists in our newsroom, which means the discovery problem, like can we solve it a different way?

I have a name. Phin Argofy.

.. or at least that is the ‘entity’ that the post ascribes those words to.

In my O Level and A Levels (yes children - I am that old) I had a 4 inch (10cm or so) Grey bear that sat on my desk in all of my exams. He also went to University with me - but I don’t recall him sitting in those exams. Maybe by then I was ‘Too cool for Skool’?

His name … Xonindraale Phaerodipus .. haven’t thought about him for decades - and yet somehow Brad’s Assistant brought him to mind.

The name? Different story for another time.
