That Chadd Wright post is a kick in the pants. Along all of these lines, two content pieces (one a mere tweet) and another substack article — both are good kicks too and have stuck with me for days now.

Yeah, I really like that quote from Chadd. Awesome, thanks for the suggestions. I read the tweet (or post? Xism? What do we call them now?) already (awesome) and started the blog post but will finish later. Thanks for sharing!

Fast-forward and have been thinking more and more about agency, especially as it pertains to the use of technology, which makes it both easier to do things and (perhaps) harder to do them too, at least in the context of the real world.

So I published this thing (that's related to agency) over the weekend. Might be up your alley given what you've written about here.
