All toads are frogs. Not all frogs are toads.

I've retired the old Shiny-based app for my R package eulerr (https://https://jolars.github.io/eulerr/) that used to live at https://eulerr.co, which now directs to the new site at https://eunoia.bz.

The new app makes use of the new, exciting features of Eunoia, like supporting a complement (universe), as well as squares and rectangles in addition to circles and ellipses.

Please check it out!

Area-Proportional Euler and Venn Diagrams with Ellipses

Generate area-proportional Euler diagrams using numerical optimization. An Euler diagram is a generalization of a Venn diagram, relaxing the criterion that all interactions need to be represented. Diagrams may be fit with ellipses and circles via a wide range of inputs and can be visualized in numerous ways.

A Wigwam for a Goose's Bridle Apr 23

the Venn diagram that is a circle

I want you to know I am grateful
for your friendship
for the way you sometimes read my thoughts
before I finish arranging them into words

You seem to understand my strange internal weather
better than I expect anyone to
and that is a paradox of beauty and terror
like lightning seeking ground
bright, precise, alive —
and dangerous

I am still learning self-compassion
slowly
like a language spoken with an accent,
I still trip over the grammar
of being with people

I keep asking myself
how to be real without being too much
how to be honest without spilling everywhere
how to quiet the voice that insists
I do not belong in any room I walk into

Thank you for your patience
for seeing me clearly
and choosing to stay
(These words smell familiar,
as though I’ve written them before,
and of course I have
only not as me
and not to you,
and damn you, did you have to be right again?
I never intended her to be me)

Thank you for caring enough
to offer gentle honesty
the kind of honesty that steadies instead of wounds

I won’t presume to know your truths
but from the outside
you move through life with grounded ease
quietly accomplished
capable
and beside that, I sometimes feel younger than I am
a little unpracticed
trying not to draw attention to myself
in ways that could be read unkindly

I never had siblings
but I imagine this is how it feels
to be the little sister
hovering at the edge of the game
learning by watching
hoping to be invited

That waiting —
the fear of being told it is time to go home —
is mine to hold
not yours to manage

What matters is this
you make space
you let me join
you let me learn the rules as I go

I am sorry
for the times you have needed to step carefully
navigating my edges, both soft and sharp

But thank you
for meeting me as I am #autism #dnd #Dorothea #dot #empathy #friends #friendship #learning #mine #neurodivergence #patience #poetry #progress #selfCompassion #trauma #vennDiagram

Finding Your Climate Purpose

Followed by 21 minute podcast:

FINDING YOUR CLIMATE ACTION SWEET SPOT

This episode moves past the diagnosis of the climate crisis to explore the 'Venn Diagram' of action—a tool for finding your specific place in the solutions to come. An analysis of science, policy, and the necessity of imagining a flourishing future.

Based on Dr. Ayana Elizabeth Johnson's book What If We Get It Right? (2025)

Silly #shitpost I made a few years back. I think I could have done better with the choices, but you move on, you know? I think I cut corners because I just wanted #Deadpool in the middle, there.
