Interview work: Most days are hard (why won’t they talk to me?). Many days involve self-doubt (maybe I’m doing it all wrong). Some days are great (that interview was illuminating!!). And a few days are bold (sure, I’ll reach out directly to the leader of that huge organization, they might answer).

I used to love going out for a run while listening to news podcasts. These last few weeks though I’ve only wanted to run indoors while watching Netflix. One reason is I don’t want to slip on the icy sidewalks. The other one is I really don’t want to listen to more news about our Southern neighbour.

Why Bill Gates’ climate memo is being celebrated by skeptics while frustrating scientists

Gates recently called for a ‘strategic pivot’ in climate strategy. That appears to have hit a nerve.

Yes! Also, being recognized at a smaller institution might offer students more support than being just another student at a prestigious university. Eventually that support might be more helpful than the name of the prestigious university.

Everybody agrees we have big global problems to solve, meanwhile BigTech is selling us AI glasses to help us figure out what to wear if it’s chilly outside. Because ultimately that‘s what most tech does: marginally improve our day-to-day and distract us from what could improve it significantly.

First trimester of pregnancy is extremely hard because: you may feel physically terrible every day for weeks; the anxiety of miscarrying is all-consuming; and you feel alone, even when you’re not. Time has never gone so slow. Yet, because it’s so common, you’re expected to just push through.

Case in point: my 4 yo is excited to have my mum visit because he thinks she can make any dish that has butter in it and apparently I’m “still learning”. I won’t tell him that my grandma used a lot more butter than does my mum.

Marielle Papin @mariellepm.bsky.social · 08/10/2025

I’ve been cooking like a grandma, adding more butter, cream and/or salt to everything and I must say, there’s a reason why grandmas’ cooking is so popular.

This summer, I have had to write several reports on my work over the last three years. While tedious, it’s also allowed to pause and realize I have accomplished a lot. As I am currently wrapping up one of those reports, my eyes linger on the breast pump still sitting in my office,…
