@whistlewright I like that. I've been toying with the idea of going back to one of those sites to publish things I write. I think it will liberate writers / content creators by giving them time and space to think; to publish slowly prepared, good stuff.

And tomorrow (23) is yet another court day for #ShakthikaSathkumara . He was taken into custody on April 1st for writing a short story, and continuously denied bail under #ICCPR. By the look of it, things are unlikely to improve tomorrow.

Blogs (websites that chronologically presents content along with a feed to follow and keep track of things remotely) can better withstand an environment laden with censorship and algorithmic manipulations. Not to mention the demise of traditional media.

The golden era of blogging is yet to come. Everyone else who would rather use a different mode of expression/platform have now moved to various "social media" platforms. Those who truly want to write and express themselves will continue to blog. Only good content, good writing will survive and make an impact.

A must read article about the post-war boom :

@whistlewright ah yes, the constitutional crisis is over, but the government is not really stable. It went on for 52 days.

I listened to the audiobooks as soon as they came out. I don't think I have *read* all the books yet.

Slowly getting back on track. Lot if work came to a halt after Easter Sunday attacks. I think it will now continue to improve...

@whistlewright
Good to see you back in action :)

Me: *Checks news*
News: It is just #Pompeo. Not #pumpio

@whistlewright
For a moment I though you meant playing with Pompeo!

@emacsomancer I hope more iසිංහල users will join us :)

Attorney General's Dept is rapidly evolving into a publicly funded institution that carries out some of the most atrocious legal manoeuvres against #SriLanka's people, defending those in power.

Stop this immediately! #FreeShakthika
