Messy language feeds back into our culture

The #blocking of current action, the constant stalls, confusion, and fragmentation, has a lot to do with the mess our language makes. And the deeper issue is how this messy language feeds back into our culture, which then loops back to make the language even murkier. It’s a feedback loop that clouds meaning, erodes trust, and paralyses collective action. The last 40 years of postmodernism and neo-liberalism have made this worse. #Postmodernism chipped away at the idea of shared reality, […]

Can anyone help with an email enquiry I've received about the history of the hashtag?

"I've been looking at how the symbol evolved from the abbreviation of libra pundo to what we see today. But I'm finding very little about the visual history of the symbol pre-20th century ... of what printers were using for this symbol — and how — between the 17th and 19th centuries.”

cc @shadychars — perhaps this is covered in your book?

YouTubeElvis NashHey there, it's Elvis Nash, and welcome to my YouTube channel, where I share my passion for country music with all of you. As a singer-songwriter, I pour my heart and soul into every lyric and melody, and I'm excited to share my music with you. I'm all about authentic country music, where the lyrics tell real-life stories and the guitar strums with genuine emotion. On this channel, you'll find original songs that I've written and performed. I want to build a community of country music lovers who share the same passion and appreciation for this genre. That's why I love engaging with my viewers in the comments section and on social media, where we can talk about our favorite songs and share our own experiences. So, whether you're looking to hear some new tunes or connect with like-minded people, you've come to the right place. Hit that subscribe button, turn on notifications, and let's get started on this journey together. Thanks for tuning in, y'all.

Halfway through the month reminder that, because of how Mastodon works, it is important to include at least 1 relevant topic #hashtag (but not too many!) in your posts.

This greatly helps to highlight your posts to people who are following #hashtags for particular topics of interest to them.

Otherwise, posts with no hashtags just go past in the fast flowing stream, and are often only seen by people who were actually scrolling through when you send your post…

Monthly Reminder:
The Fediverse is global. People who read you know nothing about you.
So PLEASE put a #hashtag with your country. What you hold for obvious may make no sense in a different context. You want to be understood ? Your choice.
Thank you.
Rappel Mensuel:
Le fediverse, c'est pour la planète. Ceux qui vous lisent ne savent pas qui vous êtes. Alors SVP indiquez votre #pays. Ce qui vous semble évident ne veut peut-être rien dire ailleurs. Vous voulez être compris ? Votre choix.
Merci.
