the 4 semester media studies and literary research classes i give to my documentation science students are 260h of carefully deconstructing the notion that neutrality in anything can ever exist. i love it so much.

political organising at the local level means needing to manage the people who refuse to install whatsapp because its not private enough and the people who cant figure out how to use signal, and somehow get both groups to work as a team
