One perk of going away for a week is coming home to not one but TWO paper acceptances! "Teaching Feminist Logic and Feminist Teaching of Logic" will be published in Synthese. "What We Do When We Do Philosophy" will be published in Principia.

Because it's my first day back in the office after a week away, it is ALL THE EMAILS and ALL THE MEETINGS day. I have already sent more than 50 emails today... (Apologies to everyone for whom I am now the problem...)

We are slowly but surely covering the episodes of Autistic People Oversharing sponsorship. If you’d like to make the next season of the show happen, for £50, we will gush about your pet or pets for a whole 1-minute ad segment. Email Advertising at thedailytism dot com for details!

It's been a difficult few days, but today I actually wrapped up and sent off an actual journal article to an actual journal -- possibly the first I've managed this year! It was first written, submitted, revised, resubmitted, and rejected in 2020, when it fell entirely off my radar.

I'm reading instructions to authors for various journals. Most are all straightforward (but who puts a MINIMUM wordcount -- and then makes it 6500?!), but this tripped me up: "please avoid the use of personal pronouns." Honestly don't know how to write history of philosophy without using pronouns.

For those who want to know just what a difference diagnosis and treatment of ADHD makes when you're an adult, should read this thread (his description of the effects of lisdexamfetamine closely match my own experiences)

I have ADHD. I'm also a physicist. I got the ADHD diagnosis about a year and a half ago, after really struggling with work for a few years. I didn't know about it when I was in school, or when I started a physics undergrad as a mature student, or through my PhD. I have thoughts:

Ideas could be exciting, but the enthusiasm would evaporate on contact with the attempt at carrying out those ideas. It wasn't that the execution was more difficult than expected, it was that acting on the idea was somehow less 'real' than the idea, and would require continuous disciplined effort.

There are two wolves. One always lies. One controls the lever of trolley track. They're in a state of superposition inside a box. On the trolley are infinite monkeys at infinite typewriters going to an infinite hotel. The trolley must first travel halfway, but before that a quarterway, and so on...
