Things I am not doing today:
Going on the Panel, as scheduled. It would be not at all considerate to give poor old Wallace a dose of the Covid.
Standing up, much. Must rest, must rest, must rest. I am very much hope that my resting will see me better soon.
Thinking all that clearly. Hope you enjoyed yesterday’s column. To be honest, I ran out of puff before I was entirely done. What I wanted to add, and which was somewhat implied but not rounded out, was: not every argument or attack on toxic social media warrants a response. You can arguably make things worse by responding and engaging. You can arguably embolden and validate the supremacists and conspiracists and proto-fascists and sociopaths and Sean Plunket. Better to turn away to other more fruitful possibilities.
