Some Saturday blogging about #scenius, small groups, peer support and ambitions (delusions?) of improving the world http://www.mcqn.net/mcfilter/archives/thinking/small_groups_and_the_does_liverpool_salon.html

Very impressed, but not surprised, to find that @philgyford's weeknotes blog posts have permalinks to individual sections. Nice attention to detail Phil!

With that book finished I can almost see the end of my to-read pile! I mean, there are still six books sat on the bedside table but for the first time in a couple of years I might need to start looking through the secondary, virtual queue 🙂 https://openlibrary.org/people/adrianmcewen/books/want-to-read

It took 45 minutes from the start of the march before I left the Rialto and I wasn't at the back. It took 30 minutes to march to St George's Plateau, so the route was a line of people for more than quarter of an hour. Loads of support from motorists at every junction #BlackLivesMatter (more at https://www.instagram.com/p/CBYREeBA9AO/)

✊🏿✊🏾✊🏽✊🏼✊🏻#BlackLivesMatter socially-distanced marches are harder, but the organisers are doing really well. Good to see people wearing the @DoESLiverpool visors that organisers are giving out along with masks (more at https://www.instagram.com/p/CBX-zHlA4PI/)

Haven't been sharing many of my Interesting Things on the Internet posts here of late.
