#Readacross
Reading Prescott’s report, when it is something I have direct knowledge of I go “yep that seems about right”, and when it is something I don’t I go “well, yeah there’s a direct readacross to another topic I do know about”:
To fix the BBC, focus on competence and cash
Corporation fails to learn from criticism, while politicians have consciously reduced its scope for quality journalism

There’s a readacross here to European politicians saying we just need to establish our credibility by deporting enough people and then voters will let us implement our socially moderate pro-growth agenda
Again, the entire edifice of Ezra Douthglesias’ Just Do An Abundance Of Moderate Popularism arguments crashes on the rocks of how public opinion & media/elite cues & partisanship work in actual 🇺🇸 politics, where one of our two major parties has totally collapsed into a far right authoritarian cult
NEW Economist/YouGov Aug 28-31: Canada
38% of Republicans view Canada as unfriendly or an enemy of the U.S., by far the highest level in the past decade

As a HS teacher, I used to take my students to read at nearby elementary schools during NEA’s #ReadAcrossAmerica week. Full-circle magic.

Today at Cardinal:
• Every kinder got We Are Definitely Human
• Every 1st grader got Mistaco

Reading in Spanglish. Big joy. Kids seen.

Right, I think this is the thing - Labour are not governing well at the moment, so do have to not treat 'the rightwing press in 2000 and 2025' as a purely straight readacross.

Davey-era Lib Dems are a fairly straight readacross in terms of electoral appeal, I would say.

I literally just said “here is why it is successful, and here is an obvious readacross for what we should do in other cities”. For some reason (clue: the reason is “hatred”) you have parsed that as “Leeds can’t succeed”.

Good morning to everyone but the guy who was keeping track of NVO flows for the Danish central bank.

You‘re right, but am going to weasel out of this by arguing there’s a readacross to “adjudicating between the army, the navy and the RAF”.

*Bunch of guys and girls who learned to post in the days of the dial-up are massive blockers of outsiders* is really the most unsurprising development, and it'll take quite a bit of evidence to convince me there is some serious readacross to take from that other than These Are Old Internet Users

PGW is really the only vaguely sensible readacross but even then.

Vandermeer's Ambergris trilogy perhaps? Also wondering if Raymond E Feist's Empire trilogy also applies here - there is readacross to Magician which is high fantasy but the Empire itself is fairly low magic if I recall.

Also plenty to be learned from the UK LDs in 2024 even - think the readacross is pretty uncanny!

quite a fun game working out if it's meant to have any readacross to real life, and consequently how much is meant to be about Shawn Mendes vs how much is meant to be about Barry Keoghan

Saw a really interesting article about US media elites being out of touch with US voters, and fuck me the readacross to here was like a punch in the face tbh!

The person who talked about people failing to plan properly *in another leg of the conversation* was again, specifically talking about WASPI - also a UK issue which there is not a US readacross to.

The MediaCity connection feels relevant - it’s basically yards away and there’s a potential direct readacross there to the cultural sector elements of the industrial strategy. So it’s not entirely without wider strategic context.

(I'm interested because I'm wondering if it's worth developing something similar but beyond digital, e.g. getting into contemporary public leadership practices (mission driven approaches, outcome-based working, etc.) Obv lots of readacross to digital but broader.

…no. You still seem to be unable to parse that “thing that happens in one seat” has a readacross to other seats. You know the big arrow on election night? The swingometer?
November 21, 2025 at 11:38 AM
Yeah — at least to capitalise on the initial "oh thank god it's not twitter" with some sort of seed user funding and demonstration of commitment.

(Dreamwidth did that pretty well, and while I'm not sure the DW niche has direct readacross, there are useful parallels.)
