    1. ⓘ Dogs don't have thumbs‏ @MorlockP Jan 11

      this article is bizarre https://jasminewang.substack.com/p/attending-to-the-other … 95% of the time, I do not crave the attention of others, and - in fact - having it feels oppresive. Sometimes when I'm very burned out I get angry that dogs are looking at me instead of leaving me alone. Normies, man.

      2/ > Simone Weil, the great French mystic who fasted to death in solidarity with frontline soldiers, said that “attention is the rarest and purest form of generosity”. Dude could have packed up a basket full of sandwiches, traveled to the front, and passed them out.

      3/ Troops would have appreciated that. Instead...he starved himself to death "in solidarity". That right there delegitimizes every opinion and quote the idiot ever had in his life, IMO.

      Simone Weil was a woman, and my read from her biography and late writings is that she was pretty seriously mentally ill. Does it invalidate her philosophy? Yeah, I think so; she's an extremely unhealthy role model. Could she have "just" stopped being that way? I doubt it.

      funny/sad story: at 14 she was suicidally depressed because her brother was better than her at math. (he grew up to be one of the greatest mathematicians of the 20th century.) then she had an idea! instead of killing herself, she would become...a philosopher!

      i had exactly the same experience, at age 13. "oh noes i'm not the best at math! this means i have no value as a human! i could kill myself...or i could get better at math!" this turned out much better for me than Weil's decision did for her.

      i also like the story of how she got kicked out of the spanish civil war. "As she was extremely short-sighted, Weil was a very poor shot, and her comrades tried to avoid taking her on missions, though she did sometimes insist...

      "Her only direct participation in combat was to shoot with her rifle at a bomber during an air raid; in a second raid, she tried to man the group's heavy machine gun, but her comrades prevented her, as they thought it would be best for someone less clumsy and near-sighted...

          i mean, there are lots of stories about her poor spatial awareness (she used to give lectures with her clothes on backwards and her students would laugh at her.) my guess is she had some Deficits.
