Jour 14 : #CalendrierAventPhoto2025

Le thème du jour « Les mains »
J’ai choisi de vous présenter 3 photos aujourd’hui parce que le thème m’inspire un partage écrit.
Une confidence je crois.
On va voir en écrivant.

Quand j’ai lu le thème hier soir, j’ai immédiatement visualisé dans ma galerie la série de #Photo #food dont est issu la deuxième image . Il s'agit qui d'une photo de la cheffe So’M en train de mettre en place d'une assiette apéro dans le cadre d'un service dans un bar tapas "Le Zambouya" à #SainteAnne.
Je me rappelle ce shooting improvisé où cela me fascinait de voir ses mains à l'oeuvre qui tel un pianiste orchestrait l'assiette composé avec précision, délicatesse, attention. La même assiette, chaque fois préparer avec une telle attention que ma galerie se questionne sur y-a- t-il doublon ou pas.
Cette image me rappelle que de nos mains nous pouvons créer, nous pouvons partager du plaisir pour autrui, nous pouvons fabriquer, transformer, mettre en valeur. Nos mains sont des outils magiques dont on oublie souvent l'importance jusqu'au jour où on se blesse, où on elle manque à leur devoir.

Je me rappelle ces discussion avec mon grand-père de son vivant qui m'expliquait la difficulté de mobilité grandissante avec Parkison, et moi qui racontait après à mamie pour l'aider à comprendre son mari, en faisant des parallèles entres ses ressentis de trembloteur et l'arthrose de mamie.
Bien sûr fanm doubout comme on dit chez nous, ma grand-mère avait peu d'empathie envers sa propre douleurs alors utiliser cela comme exemple pour l'aider à developper de la compassion de compréhension c'était pas ma meilleure idée, alors je leurs raocntait à tout les deux comment moi avec mon corps pourtant jeune, j'expérimentais parfois des blocages dans mes mains, me sentant démunie, ma main me lachait, le verre tombait et les larmes coulait car j'avais encore cassé mon verre, le préféré puis le nouveau préféré, puis la bouilloire. Mes mains me lâchait comme celle de Papi Ko sans comprendre pourquoi ni pouvoir y faire face, on apprends à ressentir et s'adapter, puis mes doigts se coinçait comme ceux de Mamie Toto et alors le travail de minutie devenait compliqué. C'est tout cela qui était dans ma tête et dans mon coeurs quand j'observe cette cheffe qui dresse son assiette malgré une sensibilité au niveau de son canal carpien. Je me rappelle l'avoir trouvé courageuse et passionnée.

En pensant à tout ces #souvenirs j'ai pensé à la dernière photo que j'ai faite de ma mamie, la photo de ces mains me montrant fièrement une cueillette de #fleurs de Tiaré de son jardin. Elle était si fiere de poser comme une mannequin main pour la photo, puis une seconde puis une troisième...
C'est mon dernier souvenir en image chez elle, dans son intimité, dans le cadeau de son temps. Les mains sont aussi un symbole du cadeau que l'on peut faire à l'autre car les mains donnent, les mains tendent, les mains propose et on peut choisir de disposer avec les notre et de saisir ce qui nous est tendu. Ma Mamie était très fière de son jardin floral car il avait été entretenu, planter, chouchouter par son mari. Papi lui offrait souvent des fleurs du jardin, ils avaient de nombreuse espèces magnifique, qui permettait d'offrir à mamie de jolie bouquet. Quand j'ai connu Papi en temps que Schae c'est mamie qui cueillait les fleurs pour le plaisir visuel de son mari qui souriait avec une telle nostalgie dans son regard.

C'est avec cette nostalgie que j'ai tout doucement pensé "Et moi qu'ai je fais de mes mains ?" : Beaucoup de choses, j'ai écrit, j'ai dessiné, j'ai fabriquer des étoiles, j'ai cuisiné et pourtant dans ma galerie c'est bien les mains avec ce signe que j'ai le plus capturé de moi même.
#peace car je crois profondément à la valeur de l'équilibre paisible. Ou alors deux comme les deux mois de Bibou date auquel j'ai commencé à prendre des photos de ma grossesse. Ou encore deux comme nous sommes deux avec la personne avec qui je pose. Ou parfois juste parce que je ne savais pas quoi faire et que mes mains agissaient comme un masque social antibug.
Cette #photographie que j'ai choisi c'est celle qui me rappelle une grande fierté, un déménagement express organisé avec nos mains à Papa Nounou et Moi. Nous avions pris la décision de vivre ce déménagement dans la paix, et nous avons mis en place de nombreuse stratégies, nounou était en charge du gros déplacement brute, de l'organisation avec les voitures, du ménage. Moi j'étais en charge d'empacter dans une logique qui m'était propre pour qu'arrivée je puisse rapidement installer la maison et faire qu'on se sente comme chez nous. Eh oui neuroatypie demande tendresse.
Cette photo me rappelle cette réussite, ce moment où on a pu profiter d'une soirée DVD installer entre les cartons sur mon premier vrai canapé. Nous étions fier, en paix et satisfait.

Selon moi les mains sont des pieds qui matérialise ce qu'on veut voir avancer.

Schae

Just completed my 21st event of the year as an art vendor, having moved here to Humboldt County in northern California eight months ago.

i’m deep tired.

But I’m proud that I did it. From shifting my career away from academia toward freelance art, I found a home that would encourage me and events where I could find my people. I started making work that was of interest to the people of my region, and learned a whole lot about what they wanted and needed.

These events have been exhausting and validating at the same time. I couldn’t have asked for a softer landing after choosing to relocate to a new home with no safety cushion, no acquaintances, and no orientation to the area. It was the most terrifying leap of faith I’d ever done. And it is slowly paying off—maybe not in money but in community networking and encouragement.

So I’m tired now. I’m going to pick up the pieces this next week and assess what comes next. Tonight, however, I am indulging in an adult beverage and a warm yummy comfort-food dinner or cheesy hamburger rice. And a good audiobook I’m enjoying.

Whew. Big time exhale.

I'm very reluctant to launch a mastodon instance and turn it on for public registrations. More than likely it'll just be me here, but we'll see.

The Eve Online community has become really quiet on X / Twitter and I'd love to see some activity in the Eve space that's not on Reddit.

Ideally we'd all be using #nostr, but I don't see that happening anytime soon. A bittervet hacker can but dream.

Los tres principales enemigos de la vida familiar:

1. La decepción mutua entre los cónyuges. Una consecuencia directa de la idealización ciega del período anterior y del error de no discernir a las personas, de no conocernos a nosotros mismos y de no saber a quiénes realmente necesitamos y qué queremos de los demás. O esperamos demasiado de nuestros seres queridos y de la vida.

2. Egoísmo, vanidad mórbida y defectos de carácter: orgullo, conflicto, agresividad, irritabilidad, grosería, intransigencia, resentimiento, venganza, tacañería, envidia, desconfianza, celos y pereza. Posesividad, exigencias excesivas y mala actitud hacia los demás. Malos hábitos: lenguaje grosero, borrachera, tabaquismo, etc.

3. El aburrimiento y la indiferencia de los cónyuges entre sí.

Shot exactly two years ago and finally developed last week. I love the havoc of colors that come from light leaks. You get double the fun on self-loaded film since you can catch something funky at the beginning and the end of the roll since I use a daylight loader. This was shot on Vision3 500 Tungsten-light balanced film without a warming filter on a very cool/gloomy day so the burst of warm color was a nice surprise.

‘Twas a beautiful day for a ren faire…
A view of the tents at the Orlando Renaissance Festival
I don't love the food, but I do enjoy the people… and the merchandise. There are a few makers who really pour heart and soul into making and selling something interesting and unique. And musicians who find an audience for niche songs about dragons, or being lost at sea. And where else are you going to encounter a hurdy gurdy?

For a long time, I have been getting legitimate emails from Comcast/Xfinity telling me that they tried to text me, but couldn't reach me, and would I please verify my mobile phone number.

I have my mobile service with Xfinity Mobile, and I do get texts from them.

It finally occurred to me to look up what number they use to originate SMS messages, which they wisely provide. I checked my blocked contacts list, and sure enough, 2 were blocked.

And of course, they send alerts from many different numbers, so I apparently have been getting some alerts, but not others.

Hopefully, that's fixed now, but if I added them to my blocklist, there's probably a good reason for that, like too many promotional texts on a channel that ought to only be used for legitimate customer account business.

We'll see if the emails stop and the texts are annoying.



Thinking tonight about local social networks like Hyves, Skyblog, and Mixi.
in reply to Evan Prodromou

I just looked up all of those, none of them lasted particularly long. But it's notable that they were all very local.

So what, in particular, are you thinking about them? 🤔

@gatesvp how and why local social networks weren't resilient to pressures from US competitors.
in reply to Evan Prodromou

there were also a few in Germany like studiVZ or lokalisten.
I guess the problem is internationalisation.
US has more potential users. And a lot of people / artists don't want to have multiple networks to post to and maintain.
So they use the bigger one and fans create accounts there to follow them and after a critical mass is reached, they give up the accounts on the local networks.
Also IMHO Farmville really made a big plus for Facebook at that time!

Folks it's about an hour until #Monsterdon, the weekly monster movie watch party. If you want to avoid it, now's the time to set up a hashtag filter.

If you want to join in, this week's movie is THE SHE-CREATURE (1956), in which a hypnotist abuses his girlfriend for fun, profit, and monster-summoning.

The flick's available free with ads on Tubi over here: tubitv.com/movies/497659/the-s…

Or you can download from Archive.org over here: archive.org/details/theshecrea…

Just hit play at the top of the hour and toot along. See you there!

I was looking for body wash. I was asked what gender I wanted it to be. I don't know, I've never thought of my body wash having a gender. Does body wash also have a sex? Would it be cheaper to buy two, one of each, and let them procreate to keep getting more body wash? Oh, is this how travel size body wash is made?! It's just sold before it grows up! I get it now. Wait... is the clear body wash non-binary?!



Mikes unofficial back of napkin peace plan for Ukraine. Crimea and Donbas regions become their own states. Doesn't matter if their Russian puppets as long as they're not greater Russia. In return Ukraine gets instant membership to NATO and no limitations on ground force size. Also a permanent multinational NATO garrison stationed in Ukraine. I might also push for reperations.

Here's an alt-text description of the image:

The image is a quote presented against a vibrant purple gradient background, transitioning from a deeper shade at the top to a lighter hue towards the bottom. The quote is divided into four lines, each contained within a rectangular white text box with a dark blue border. The text is written in a bold, sans-serif typeface. The quote reads: "The illiterate of the 21st century will not be those who cannot read and write, but those who cannot learn, unlearn, and relearn." Beneath the quote, in a cursive white font, is the name “Alwin Toffler”. The overall design is minimalist, with the focus solely on the text and its author.

Deutche Wella gets it. I’m very happy to see that the German public broadcaster understands money creation in the modern economy, but also understands something of the goals of project 2025.

They never mentioned Silicon Valley, but I guess for any organization that’s very much on the front line of information they haven’t internalized yet.

The trick with all the stable coins is whether or not they actually are backed by US treasuries, and I think the billions of dollars that are defrauded from holders of stable coins is going to force the people who don’t want oversight to experience what happens when nobody trusts the instrument you are issuing.

in reply to GhostOnTheHalfShell

it’s in the nature of these things that they are perfectly sensible right up to the millisecond you try and cash them out 😃
in reply to GhostOnTheHalfShell

not all stablecoins are backed by treasuries etc. the 2nd biggest one that is so backed (Circle USDC, ~$60bn mkt cap) has been audited and has the money. tether is the $185bn stablecoin that refuses to be audited, so yeah that's the important question. also other "fiat backed" stablecoins like FDUSD (used on binance) and TrueUSD/TUSD (justin sun) were "backed" but not with assets nearly as good as US treasuries.

there's a few broad categories of stablecoins:

1. "fiat backed" (Tether USDT, Circle USDC, TUSD, FDUSD, etc)

2. "crypto backed" (meaning they hold the backing for the token in bitcoin or ethereum - what could go wrong? some single digit billion dollar stablecoins are backed like this, the biggest of which is Sky FKA MakerDAO DAI)

3. "backed by complex financial instruments and trading positions" (another "what could go wrong?
" case... this is a newish category but USDe, run by recently pardoned Arthur Hayes + BitMEX, is close to $10bn mkt cap)

4. "algorithmic" (backed by hopes and dreams. this category kind of went away after the $40 bn terra/luna implosion, but it's making a comeback with Justin Sun's USDD)

In option two, what does it mean when bitcoin slides in value like I think it did recently and I don’t know if it’s recovered.
in reply to GhostOnTheHalfShell

there's a large cushion and deleveraging mechanism that's supposed to protect the $1 peg, but if the price were to slide too much too quickly, this is roughly what would happen:
