      Losing Sight
      from simsa0
      I recently lost sight. No, I’m not blind. I didn’t lose my eyesight, although I lost my natural lenses due to cataract surgeries. Both, for each eye, went well. Nothing to complain about that…

    Yay! Welcome back, esteemed cyborg. And what a great ornament you have on your ear. But tell me, prior to the surgery, why did they cover your bald head and not your beard? Clinics are strange places...

    An artist who is not covered because of the quality, topics, or techniques of her art but the fanciness of her materials. Sigh. That's what you expect from The Guardian.

    It occurs to me that every protest rally you attend becomes a rainy one. Perhaps you should stage protest rallies in arid areas around the world, kind of "travelling rain man missionary tent show"...

    @tinydoctor
    Yep. I only learnt about the better, blue spectre filtering lenses afterwards, in a conversation with somebody else. As I learnt from another, astonished person whom I met a few days after my first surgery that I should wear UV-filtering sun glasses. Neither doctor recommened this to me and only after I bought some did I feel some relief.

    "The grief is worse than the knee pain. How do we manage without turning away, closing eyes?"

    I guess like in love. We learn to care without looking, otherwise we'd care because of some specific qualities or oddities. We learnt (I guess) that that's something one shouldn't do in love either: to "love" somebody for their qualities. You just do, because it's that person. Same with care: You do, simply because it's that world. We cannot but... The main thing is to dismantle in us what hinders us to let care do its own thing... Or so I think.

    I wish you luck with the surgery. Knees, like eyes, are delicate things but as your recebt hernia surgery went well, I trust this one will too.

    My post surgery regrets stem from one single, avoidable, issue. My health insurance provider covers basic lenses and the procedure. These lenses don't filter well the blue and the UV spectre of the natural light thus, after insertion, rendering everything bluish and expose the retina to more UV light which later can cause retinal damages. Anyway, neither my ophthalmologist nor the doctors in the eye clinic informed me that there are other types of lenses, e.g., those that do filter the bluish and UV spectre. Their disadvantage is that they are not covered by health insurance, so that I would have had to pay extra for them. And as the doctors later told me that, yes, my cheap lenses make the world look like under LED light, I am angry that they didn't tell me prior to the procedure. If they had decribed it to me that way, I could have anticpated the visual impression and rush to ask my family to pool some money.

    How the fuck can you act properly when you don't know what you don't know and the specialists don't care telling you?

    My problem with Progressivism and anti-globalisation is not its inherent moral attitude but the reliance on a worldview and a set of data and realities that seems 30 to 50 years behind the times. Like Bernie Sanders' brain, baked and formed in the late 1950s.

    Which may be one reason why Progressivism turned stereotypical and could become the strawman in the culture wars instead of a political agenda to alleviate suffering, to promote equality, and to ensure a safety net in form of a functioning welfare state.

    It looks like Progressivism has fallen into the typical trap: If you don't have factual knowledge, you quickly turn to morals. Because in morals everyone's a pro, even (or: especially) without learning.

    That the anti-global Trump agenda will primarily hurt the lower and middle classes is obvious. And that left leaning anti-globalisation and extreme right anti-globalisation sound so identical is no coincidence – they share the same anti-elite attitudes and the same tendency for scapegoating.

    That by these commonalities the Left (or Progressives) become the enablers of the far Right is rarely addressed. But that, in 2016, was the sin of Bernie Sanders, when he equated Hillary Clinton with Trump ("same establishment"), thus putting off many Progressives to vote for her as well as not disouraging working class people to vote for Trump. When you look at the details, the data, the realities, and less indulge in happy moralizing ideology, Progressivism could regain its standing in driving society to the better. Still waiting for that hands-on attitude to rise.

    (For context: If I were a US-ian, I'd definitely not be a Bernie Sanders Independent nor a Elizabeth Warren Democrat, I'd be a Amy Klobuchar Democrat.)

    Post eye surgeries, it feels like I am developing a depression. No point looking at the world anymore, it's outright awful, with no place to hide. Even candlelight became cold with lens flare style beams. Fucking ophthalmologists. Had they informed me earlier about the effects, I'd kept my cataract! I'm done with looking. Fuck this world.

    ♪ Ismaël Lô, "Baykat" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3VxRvslyMjw

    Senegal, Mali, The Gambia! Ismaël Lô is a lesser known gem from this musical high culture, but his music has such a complex while at the same time floating texture... very different from, say, Ali Farka Touré, Baaba Maal, Oumou Sangaré...
