Heard that the UN prefers applicants that speak more than one of its official languages. That's why I'm going to start working on my rusty Arabic (by reading some books by renowned Arab advocate of feminism May Ziadeh for starters) and get some certifications in EU governance, Arabic and maybe French.

For this month's Grizzly Gazette Book Club1, we picked Algospeak by Adam Aleksic to read and blog about. I was very much dreading writing this post as I knew I was going to be very harsh in it since i didn't enjoy reading the book itself.| suliman's space
Went on a successful code heist today, robbing two code banks (sylvia's and mono's). Happy to report that I did not get run over by an NPC shortly before finishing the mission as well.| suliman's space

People have the right to choose what to do with their life, period. If ending it is their choice, then so be it. Why should anyone take that choice away from them?| suliman's space
This blog marks my first time using my real first name on the internet, like ever. I see other bloggers do that not just on their blog, but pretty much on all of their socials. More than that, many combine their first and last name in the way they present themselves at all times—a concept deeply foreign to me unless I’m communicating with the bureaucracy.| suliman's space
It seems has to be about social media, and this post is no different. Today I made the decision to delete the last remaining social media account I used whi...| suliman's space
Welcome to my Island! I'm Suliman (he/him), a social media-averse nerd. As this is a personal blog and I'm always changing, it closely follows what I'm into ...| suliman's space
When I created this blog, I had no idea where I was going with it. Frankly, I don't want to pin myself down at all. While I say on the front page what I pres...| suliman's space
