I can only aspire to ever be able to knit anything. No, it’s an L L Bean vintage baby.

I’m very interested in hearing from any employers/ees who have a Neurodiversity policy as part of their standard package. And also whether this includes both Support (for protected characteristics) as well as Accountability (for agreed performance standards). Pls get in touch!

This looks fun

I learned something interesting yesterday- there is no AI being deployed in space yet - as in, crunching raw satellite or probe data before it gets beamed down. That’s the next thing they are all working on

This makes me extremely happy. I was editor of Current Arch at the time of the dig, I knew theppl+process+permissions it had to go thru. The film was a lazy trope about who archaeologists are + how our work happens. It pissed me off and I’m glad to hear Coogan et al are being hit in the wallet.

God keep me from ever completing anything.

Nevertheless

You somehow just emerge back into your own life. It’s never the same, you’re never the same, but eventually you start feeling good things again too. Just give yourself permission to do whatever it takes - I had to leave London bc grief made me claustrophobic. Go wherever it takes you.

I know it feels impossible, but you will actually survive this and still resemble yourself. We are the luckiest who have fathers worth mourning. Lots of love x
