@idlestate Ooh, 'clouded' - I love that. It captures the whole foggy awfulness and frustration of getting lost in these unnecessary digital situations that could have been simple. Or could have been analogue.

heh, yeah

I feel like there's a whole range of cloud connotations of at least dubious valence that has just been ignored? suppressed? when talking about this industry's favored metaphor for obscured and haphazrdly organized approaches to handling data

even if we pass by "dark clouds" and "black cloud" as closer to colorism than we wish to go, there's still "cloudy" and "storm cloud" too

@idlestate I had never seen that nuance until you mentioned it - I can absolutely see it now!
