climbtothestars.orgManger à l’heureÇa fait un moment que j'analyse de quelle façon "j'échoue" à faire certaines choses du quotidien, alors que je veux les faire et que je comprends leur importance. Un exemple tout bête: aller me coucher à une heure raisonnable. A un moment donné, j'ai réalisé que le premier signe d'une soirée qui allait aboutir à un coucher plus tardif que souhaité était l'heure du repas du soir.

climbtothestars.orgSaturday Snippet SmorgasbordAnother dry spell on the blog, but not in my mind or my intentions. I figured I'd try and challenge myself to do something a little different in terms of format: a list of stuff that's jostling about in my head, in no particular order, without much explanation, a couple of sentences max for each. Just some stuff. Feels like it should be bullet points, but I'll try without.

Nauseating to see how the media, cyberinfluencers and other mass manipulators are milking the « story » for all it’s worth to grab some exposure surfing on Ed Sheeran’s fame. Listen to music for a bit instead.

overcast.fm/+ABTLaY3KIss Podcast qui compense un peu la frustration d’avoir loupé le module consacré au suicide dans ma formation en systémique à l’IGB. Ça vous paraîtra peut-être contre-intuitif, comme souvent dans cette approche.

Parler du suicide fait peur. Aux proches, qui ne savent pas quoi dire. Aux soignants eux-mêmes, parfois. Alors on rassure, on positive, on exhorte — « pense à tout ce que tu as à vivre »….

Vous savez ces changements progressifs que vous n'arrivez pas à attribuer à un seul facteur, mais où vous identifiez quand même des éléments spécifiques qui ont joué un rôle? Voilà, on est là-dedans. J'ai pu passer à 60% il y a deux semaines.

If this looks familiar, it’s because it is a repost of a tweet I posted five years ago bc yes, I am still thinking about it. Here’s the rest of the thread:

Thinking about how a girl at Christian summer camp asked me if my dad was in Al Qaeda and I got in trouble for asking if her dad was a Klansman bc “her question was understandable”

And my family had it easy! We aren’t Muslim so no visible indicators like a hijab. I look white as hell. My brother can pass as something else. We both have our dad’s family nose, but that’s not noticeable to the average American. And despite all that, it still sucked.

Shoutout to my mom for always making sure my brother and I knew about our background and had a connection with our family even when the culture barrier made it hard btw. She’s the realest and I love her and so does everyone who has ever met her.

This is so real. The shit people would say to my white mother was so heinous that she cut off multiple friendships within days of the attacks. A lot of people asking if my dad knew the hijackers or about The Plan. Oh, and my mom thought he’d died in the towers while being asked all of this.

Chris@asmarcd.bsky.social

I'm a white Arab American. Most ppl would never know that's my background by looking at me. The day after 9/11, family friends, who did not know, where at the house and openly talking about how all Arabs and Muslims in the US should be rounded up into camps. I was 12 years old. We were never united.

You can tell this is true because when Michelle Obama made healthy eating and exercise her issue as First Lady, this same movement failed to coalesce around her and in fact she met a ton of resistance from the same people who made RFK Jr possible

One of the best investments we could make *right now* would be to nationalize all public utility companies; electric, water, even internet, etc. Pay them fair market value or whatever, but privately owned utility companies simply should not exist. And they’re fighting us on everything. Fuck ‘em

Senator Scott Wiener@scottwiener.bsky.social

PG&E demanded it not be liable for causing wildfires. The Legislature did not agree. PG&E’s response: Punishment by extending already ridiculous timelines to hook up new housing and clean energy to the grid. It’s straight up extortion. 🧵

I think I would really like the foldable iPhone. But at over $2k, I can’t justify blowing that much money on a phone. It would be a crazy business expense when I could put that money back into Micro.blog hosting or paying people. Other folks may have different priorities, and that’s fine! 💰

So, several months ago, when it became clear that the Anthropic settlement was designed to slice up payouts between the author and the publisher, I sent an email to them via my editor that, as the sole copyright owner of the works in question, I expected them to forward any payment they get to me.

What’s the problem w using LLMs to write stuff you want other people to read -emails, articles, posts- and why are people (like me!) so incredibly hostile that they will block you/mute you/block your domain, to never read anything from you again? Bryan spells it out. Read it:

Greg really is one of the best reported-columnists covering this era right now. He gets info and actual news others who work in the commentary space simply don’t I love the fusion of strong opinion/perspective but backing it up with unearthed information and original reporting

Darline Graham said that because her own parents died when she was a kid, people today shouldn't expect "government health care." So I dug up the real story of the death of Darline/Lindsey's parents. It makes a strong case FOR government health care. 1/ (new piece) newrepublic.com/article/2148...

newrepublic.comWhat Darline Graham’s Ugly, Viral Outburst About Death Really RevealsThe senator’s parents died when she was a kid. That’s tragic. But it’s also tragic that she’s against the kind of care that could help untold numbers of people avoid that fate today.
