My Ghost theme automatically displays estimated reading time. Something about it never sat right with me. This was a clear-cut perspective. I'll set aside time to remove it. https://toot.cafe/@matt/113060934547786252

Your regular reminder of how the Internet is far from readily accessible to everyone.

Since newspapers have become computerised, weâve welcomed spell checkers , grammar checkers, and now AI assistants, I only see more and more spelling mistakes in the news, i.e. multiple times every frickinâ day. I canât believe how efficient everything has apparently become. đ
More is better they tell me.
@dkmj Ja fan det mĂ„ste vara Waran:et som spökar. Ărligt talat vore det ju galet roligt om man kunde hitta lite fler udda biverkningar att lista i bipacksedlarna. đ
- 5 av 100 vill se en Björn Skifs-film 2-3 gÄnger om Äret
- 7 av 100 startar en tankesmedja
- 9 av 100 blir beroende av Lakrisal
- 15 av 100 vill fabulera statistik 2-3 gÄnger per dag
Tack. đ
@LeoR1010 Verkligen! đ
@ambivalena Ja jag har hyfsad koll, och samtidigt svĂ„rt att följa samma program pĂ„ papper dag ut och dag in. Behöver variation. Man lĂ€r sig snabbt att avbryta, hoppa över, nĂ€r nĂ„gon övning gör ont. đ
Tack!
@LeoR1010 Bra tÀnkt! Det tror jag inte var med i filmerna jag hittade, men vi hade en engelsman som ledde ett pass pÄ sittgympan pÄ rehabcentret och han var störtskön med sitt sittdansande mellan övningarna. Bara slÀpp loss till musiken sÄ blir det jÀttebra, typ.
Den tar jag med mig!
@ambivalena Ja det gick fort. Kom hem idag. BÄde skönt och lÀskigt som du skriver. Har ju varit med pÄ sittgympan pÄ rehabcentret, gjort trapptrÀning och gÄtt promenader utomhus. Det Àr verkligen högt tempo och fokus pÄ att trÀna, inte vila, sig i form.
FrÄn att jag förra tisdagen inte kunde gÄ alls, till idag, Àr hÀpnadsvÀckande och mer framsteg Àn jag sjÀlv hade trott skulle gÄ.
VĂ€ldigt mycket piller blir det fortfarande. DĂ€r Ă€r Apples hĂ€lsa-app till stor hjĂ€lp för mig för att hĂ„lla koll pĂ„ alla lĂ€kemedel. Waranen ska dosen Ă€ndras pĂ„ cirka tvĂ„ gĂ„nger i veckan baserat pĂ„ blodprov sĂ„ hĂ€r i början ocksÄ⊠đ
Men jag kommer fÄ kallelse till ordnad grupptrÀning med andra hjÀrtsjuka ocksÄ, men det blir först om cirka fyra-fem veckor vad jag förstÄtt.
Imorrn blir det att sĂ€tta igĂ„ng pĂ„ riktigt med rehab-trĂ€ning pĂ„ hemmaplan. Har hittat ett par sittgympa-filmer jag ska prova. Tveka inte att tipsa mig om tĂ€nkbara pass/aktiviteter ni snubblat över i andra sammanhang. Vill göra det hĂ€r till nĂ„got roligt. Promenader Ă€r inga problem Ă€ven om det gĂ„r lite lĂ„ngsamt. Hoppa studsmatta Ă€r vĂ€l kanske minst lĂ€mpligt. đ
English: Tomorrow Iâll start up my rehab training at home for real. Found a couple of sitting exercise videos I'm going to try. Do not hesitate to suggest other possible sessions/activities you may have stumbled upon. I want to make this into something fun. Walking is no problem even if Iâm a bit slow. Trampoline jumping is probably the least suitable. đ

@daniel Ja den hĂ„ller fortfarande. SĂ„g precis klart. đ
Fick ett galet sug efter att kolla pÄ den gamla filmen Strul med Björn Skifs. Vilken udda kÀnsla. Har inte tÀnkt pÄ den pÄ mÄnga Är.
@cgruenloh Oh I didn't know about that campaign. What a brilliant initiative, and what a heartbreaking story!
We definitely need more campaigns like this all over.
@impactology @stephenpa Love this thread Raghav. âïž
Something Iâve noticed about catching peopleâs names now that Iâve met dozens upon dozens of new people during my hospital stay:
In Swedish itâs just as common to say âPer heter jagâ as it is to say âJag heter Perâ. Both of those mean âMy name is Perâ. Itâs of course possible to say âPer is my nameâ in English but I donât pick up on that order of words as often as I do in Swedish.
When people enter your room and immediately say âPer is my name, hello, how are you, itâs time for your medsâ thereâs a TON of information in there. My chances of remembering the name of a new person is next to zero, unless they have the same name as me or one of my family members. And the meds part really brings focus away from the person Iâm meeting for the first time.
Making sure to lead with how you are about to say your name: âHello, my name is Perâ, pausing for my response and then continuing with âI am here toâŠâ gives me a sporting chance.
When people say âMy name isâ my alertness immediately rises as I make an effort to remember their name, because I know itâs coming. When said in the reverse itâs much too late. My alertness wasnât there.
For some reason people also tend to mumble more at the beginning of a sentence (my experience during this week), even when itâs the most important part.

@ambivalena Yeah, it's like I'm a child again, wanting to impress everyone around me with everything I'm able to do.
@ambivalena Yes very. Thank you, I'm learning to take it one day at a time. On the days I feel well I tend to overdo it, but I'm learning. đ
One thing they didn't prepare me for is that when it's quiet I can actually hear the leaflets in my new mechanical aorta valve opening and closing. It's very much a sound like a clock ticking.
And now I can identify with the crocodile in Peter Pan. đâ°
I actually take it as a comforting sound rather than an alarming one though. đ
Over on LinkedBin someone announced the release of their book. The announcement contained marketing images with text and I counted three grammatical mistakes.
This type of situation always makes me sigh heavily. But then i move on. After venting about it on another platform of course.
@steveportigal Well that post I actually wrote in English as well, haha. And you're exactly right, that was the only part that was untranslatable. The literal translation of Superman's name when I was a kid was Steel-man. So they had taken the Man of Steel part and used that.
Which made a lot of sense because it was natural to use the prefix "stÄl" (steel) to signify when someone was extraordinary. Like StÄl-mormor would be a really impressive grandma.
I still think StĂ„lmannen is a better name for him in Swedish đ And thinking that is obviously a way to joke about being old. It left me without a joke in the English text.
