The day started quite productively, meeting a deadline one day ahead. Then, around 10am, everything went to hell. I’ve been attending unscheduled phone and zoom calls for the rest of the day. So my Friday deadline is in panic mode. At least I could take a moment to write to Manuel Moreale, because this post On POSSE resonated with me and I wanted to tell him I liked it. In my Twitter time, even in the more recent Mastodon world, my response would have been a star or a like o a thumbs up, maybe a short emphatical shout-out. Mostly empty and ephemeral. I’m liking this new slow approach to my digital life. I think it can make way to more meaningful connections. For starters, it felt good to write a longer and warmer email to a blogger whose example inspires me every day. Not that Manu has any obligation to respond. It did feel good and that’s enough. Time will tell.
