Folding Napkins

Someone showed me by creasing a napkin and folding it, that you could only fold it about seven times. They weren't really making eye contact. Nor did they talk much more about this, and the conversation meandered into something more about the weather, and whether I was going to do...

Rushed Powerpoint

I am once again on a train ย  working on a presentation powerpoint , but also almost forgot to write. Been thinking lately as I have been forced to write some word vomit or small notes before the day deadline that I need to just write earlier. I was also thinking...

Preferences

In chemistry for important and human reasons a lot of wait times for experiments are over night. We do this in biology too, you can even incubate some things over the weekend. Results usually work, and in many cases this doesn't matter.

But recently there have been some studies that sort...

I flew (poem)

I flew
past fields and oak trees and stinging nettle
There was a badger or something too hard to see
the sun was setting and I could have sworn it was you

Or another version, another one acting out their plan
on a certain pathย 
going somewhere

Although it did remind me of grassy summer nights
And...

Tate

Just meant to be notes on the exihibits I just saw. There was of course the fountain of Duchamp, the turning piece of modern art. But I think or I have a feeling, that people mis interpret his intentions, I guess they do say in the description they think he...

Dark Forests

Today there was a lot of talk with friends about the whole PhD process. But I think this could be translated into other processes. We talked about what we wish we knew at the beginning and it was all very different. One person wished they knew they could do what...

Dumb Phone

In effort to promote more deep work , I've started making my phone harder to use, and in a sense make it dumber. I recently stumbled across some actual products offering dumb or simple phones, but just setting up my phone to make it harder to get it seems good...

Rainy

tired eyes half awake or just alive on caffeine
I summon something of whats left to stare at the screen
incremental progress on something importantย 

Behind me the door or the big window is open to world
And cool breeze flows in and outย 
The room has the calmness of friends sleeping after...

Sperm Telomeres

Recently I learned that as men age they produce sperm with longer telomeres.ย 

This is weird, for two ways.ย 
Well maybe even more, like where they getting all this sperm.ย 

But scientifically, as people age we know their telomeres shorten. Telomeres are a sort of cap on the end of...
