Charlsy Yang @charlsy.cv · 06/05/2025i didn’t know how much of my agency was afforded by public transit. it’s kinda like Kohut’s concept of self-object, something that scaffolds my sense of self and wellbeing 010

Charlsy Yang @charlsy.cv · 16/03/2025two sad moments when i feel an acute sense of loneliness being an immigrant: one is realizing even though we’ve watched the exact same movie and read the exact same book, we aren’t able to talk about it simply because we experienced them in difference languages 110
Charlsy Yang @charlsy.cv · 09/03/2025realized my cantonese and english are exactly opposite of each other in terms of fluency vs literacy. i speak cantonese natively but have barely read or written anything in it, whereas my english is better on paper than in speech 110
Charlsy Yang @charlsy.cv · 05/03/2025ugh i missed in person presentations, much more motivated to talk to a room of human flesh than a screen of portraits 020
![Screenshot of AI response: “3. Scribble Scramble: ▪ The pink scribbles are a fun idea for adding energy and a hand-drawn feel, but their execution is a bit distracting. ▪ The scribble weaving through the letters of "[redacted]" and "[redacted]" actively hinders readability. It feels less like a cool design element and more like someone accidentally drew over the important parts.
▪ The heart and sparkles on the right feel a little disconnected and add to the overall busyness without a clear compositional anchor.
4. Composition Collision: ▪ There's a lot happening in a concentrated space. The main text block feels very dense. The edges of "[redacted]" and "[redacted]" are uncomfortably close to the edges of the textured background square. Give your elements some breathing room!
▪ The balance feels a bit off. The heavy text block and photo on the left could be better counterbalanced or integrated with the elements on the right.

![a photo of a book excerpt: In truth, language had always been the ultimate hurdle for behaviorism. How could you avoid talking about "mental states" such as ideas, images, feelings, and intentions when the whole point of language was to communicate those states? The behaviorist answer —naturally-was that such apparent mental states were illusory. We produced certain sequences of words only because we'd learned associations between individual words: John had a certain probability of being followed by kissed, which had a certain probability of being followed by Mary, and so on. Thus John kissed Mary. Indeed, B. F.
Skinner himself was just finishing up a major book on the subject and had declared that a behaviorist account of language would be the culmination of his life's work.
Chomsky was contemptuous. "I thought that [Skinner's theory] was completely wrong from every point of view," he would say many years later. "You could ask a question that for some reason investigators rarely asked: namely, can the proposed model even in principle account for the known facts? As soon as you ask that it becomes clear that [the behaviorist model] can't possibly account for the known facts about language.'](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:3d4go3r5qhjwr3c5asvgb4uw/bafkreigjkcvavmjk76oegfdh7f46sf2hzan2oug7fqa3wvsavnkwmubypa)
