@TheWinterMen @pauljholden I would argue that part of the reason we know H.P. Lovecraft so well these days for reasons other than casual racism, is down to the Mythos. If he had had a full landlord/get off my land mindset, it would not exist.

@TheWinterMen @pauljholden I am not advocating the abandonment of copyright or any of an author’s rights, but I do believe sometimes we can be more tolerant of others walking across our spaces and even at times, allowing for bits of them to be used freely by the community that loves them.

@TheWinterMen @pauljholden Hookland is one model of doing this, but there are countless approaches and models that could be employed and would probably work better. At heart, I believe I do better to keep a focus on creating/expanding further out rather than policing everything I make.

@porridgebrain I think we tend to learn the same lessons in our explorations, because they map the truth of the territory. Sometimes it is good to externalise what we hold to each day, not least because we so often think we have no route, that we haven’t learned much.
