Writing Slowly

My name’s Richard. I live in Sydney, on the traditional land of Bidjigal people of the Eora nation. Here I write about writing and reading (and what I do when I'm not writing or reading). I'm writing slowly but may at some point speed up. Connect with me on micro.blog or at Mastodon @aus.social@writingslowly. On Reddit, I'm @atomicnotes.

@BenjaminHolsteen well there’s a saying that all politics is local. You think people care about truth and justice, but mainly they want the drains unblocked. But the article got me thinking of the wins I’ve experienced in my lifetime, not shying away from big-picture activism and audacious goals. The certainty that big changes happen all the time, and that in this context nothing is impossible. I’m not closing that door.
