My 9yo daughter is 78% of the way through Algebra I.

She has completed high school physics, high school chemistry, and will be starting high school biology tomorrow.

When asked if she gets anything for completing chemistry, she said, “Very happy.”

When faced with looming despair, I meditate on the inherent benevolence of an objective universe. Existence is not neutral. Existence is home. Home is supportive of life. That is why it is home. #philosophy #optimism #BenevolentUniversePremise #objectivity

My 9yo daughter is 55% of the way through Algebra I.

She has completed high school physics and is 76% of the way through high school chemistry.

She leads the way in her education and jokes about catching up with her 17yo brother.

Third time was not the charm. Early January my paper was rejected by another journal. This one stung a bit. Unlike the last one, it didn’t include any reviewer comments. It took me a bit, but I have submitted to a 4th journal. For anyone that is curious, a preprint is available at https://osf.io/preprints/socarxiv/hb6rn_v1 with the title Universal Basic Income and Value Realization: Metaphysical Insights for Implementation in the United States. #AcademicWriting #PeerReview #Preprint #UBI #Economics #philosophy

My 9yo completed 8th grade math last week and is already 27% of the way through Algebra I.

She has completed high school physics and is 51% of the way through high school chemistry.

She leads the way in her education and proudly tells people she’s in 9th grade now.

For who else needs to hear it, no, I am not doing well. It’s okay to step back, take a breather, and circle back. Dissension does not require exhaustion. #SelfCare

In my family, we celebrate the Glorious 8th, the anniversary of the victory at the Battle of New Orleans.
Eat some boudin. Drink a Hurricane.

Diversity makes our country richer. Had that victory not taken place, the Hartford Convention might have forced a smaller, poorer nation in the name of being less diverse.

Je suis fière d’être Créole.
Happy Glorious 8th, everyone!

I’m currently rewriting the section on the martyrdom of Ignaz Semmelweis in my book Beyond Survival, framing it as the collision of his Weltschmerz with the pervasive nescience of the medical community.

Yesterday I learned a new word:
Nescience (noun)

Not ignorance from lack of information,
but ignorance maintained despite available evidence.

My 9yo daughter completed high school physics today. She is still working her way through 8th grade math in which she has completed 63%. She will be moving on to High School Chemistry next.
