Interesting Things on the Internet: September 23rd 2024 Edition
- The Art of Taking It Slow. I don't agree with all of this—index gears are much better than friction levers, and I never got on with adjusting side-pull brakes—but cycling is definitely about comfort, enjoyment and fun.
- Coming home.
there’s all this hype about making everything easier and faster, about how we can eliminate all the work involved in the making of words and images. But no one arguing for this seems to have asked what’s left when the work is gone. What is the experience of asking for something to appear and then instantly receiving it? What changes between the thought and the manifestation? I fear that nothing changes, that nothing is changed in such a making, least of all ourselves.
- (1970) Huey P. Newton, “The Women’s Liberation and Gay Liberation Movements”. Excellent speech looking to build solidarity between the black liberation, gay and feminist movements. We need more of this sort of approach today.
