Brings to mind the powerful critique Isabel Waidner makes in the final paragraph of her essay-play, 'The Prince of Homburg':

'UK publishing professionals are always wondering why the working classes aren't engaging with canonical literature. Books come cheap off the Amazon, so--? What's your excuse? You too dumb to read this? Ill-educated, and lazy? You prefer sci-fi and Netflix, you unintelligent shits? But the working-classes are disengaging, not because they lack educational capital or intelligence, but because literature is stupid. It gets almost everything wrong.'

Kevin Duffy, who runs the indie publisher Bluemoose books, was quoted this week on the 'class ceiling' in literary fiction publishing:

'It’s been a problem in publishing for 40 years and it’s getting worse. The people making those publishing decisions, because of their educational background and their life background, are not reading books about people in the rest of the country. You know, 93% of the people in this country don’t go to private school. There’s a reading public out there that wants books about themselves and the areas they live in.'

Democracy at a tipping point?

Defending our Democratic Space, a new report from Civil Exchange and the Sheila McKechnie Foundation, has identified a number of significant threats to #democracy.

https://smk.org.uk/what-we-do/policy-and-research/defending-our-democratic-space-a-call-to-action/

'... the rights of individuals have come under threat, with rights to peaceful #protest being curtailed and trade #union powers ... further reduced, alongside challenges to the #humanrights of #asylum seekers and attempts to repeal the Human Rights Act, abuse of anti-terrorism laws, and new ID restrictions on the right to vote.

.... the increasing hold of so-called ‘#culture wars’ thinking on #political and #public debate, which has created an intemperate environment in which it is becoming ever harder for both individuals and not-for-profits to debate differences of view or shape a common culture.'

#Question: what are your favorite #software tools for visualizing new #roadway and #intersection designs?

If you wanted to communicate how a proposed intersection or roadway redesign would look and feel to the public, what would you use?
I'm looking specifically for examples of tools that are fairly easy to use by non-experts and can create realistic renderings suitable for #public engagement.

Thank you!

#CircularPSP was just added to the #Public buyers community #platform! An initiative from #DG GROW at the European Commission that aims to facilitate joint #action in public #purchasing across the #European Union. Read all about it: https://lnkd.in/dhAeRtD3

You can't go that long without gooning. Get your boy dong out and start pumping. Even if you're on the train.

Bad #PublicPolicy: "... a view, deeply held in the rural West, that water is private property that comes with access to land, rather than a public resource," mixed with foreign countries having an interest in American natural resources is a bad combination. Add to that (Republican) lobbyists holding sway over legislators like former Governor Ducey, et al., and the result is a shameful, environmentally disastrous nightmare. I'm shocked. 🙃

Headline: Tony Evers uses veto powers to extend annual increases for #public #schools for the next four centuries

"Evers crafted the four-century
#school aid extension by striking a hyphen and a "20" from a reference to the 2024-25 school year. The increase of $325 per student is the highest single-year increase in revenue limits in state history."

You probably don't think about #sewer #rat #ecology. Or rather, you probably don't want to think about it.

But Guo et al. (2023) did in this comprehensive review. This type of work is important for #public #health and control of #invasive #species.

Rats prefer:

🐀 narrow pipes,

🐀 low water flow,

🐀 older construction materials,

🐀 disrepair leading to nooks and crannies,

🐀 being near to houses and restaurants,

🐀 organic matter, for instance from sink grinders.
