Dear Apple, Please make it easier to delete contacts. Having to go into each contact & select edit then scroll to the very bottom is actually very annoying & tedious. Sincerely, Every iPhone User.

Q to all older adults - Are you mirroring your life the same way???
Dr. Saga Helin@helin_drsaga

When we see older adults spending hours each day scrolling through social media after retirement, the temptation is to call it a harmless habit or even a sign of healthy adaptation. I want to gently push back on that, because I think it deserves much more careful attention than that framing allows. Retirement is not simply a lifestyle change. In fact for many people it’s a profound loss and sometimes a cascade of losses arriving all at once. The work role disappears, daily structure dissolves, colleagues drift away, spouses become ill or die and physical mobility declines. The core psychological capacities that kept a person functioning, their ability to regulate self-esteem, to sustain meaningful relationships, to find purpose, to tolerate grief, are now under enormous strain. What social media offers in that context is not connection in any deep sense. It offers the appearance of connection at very low psychological cost. Quick validation, a glimpse of a grandchild’s photograph, a comment thread that creates the feeling of being seen without requiring the vulnerability of actually being known. In moderation that may provide some genuine comfort. But when it becomes the primary way someone organizes their emotional life, we need to ask what it is protecting them from. Very often it is protecting them from mourning, from sitting with the losses, the diminishments, the fear of death and irrelevance that late life asks every one of us to face. The scrolling becomes a kind of defense, and like most defenses it works just well enough to prevent the deeper work from happening. What makes this genuinely heartbreaking, rather than simply a technology problem, is that the culture surrounding these older adults has largely stopped offering real alternatives. Human beings evolved in conditions of tight, embodied, intergenerational community that is not a romantic notion but a biological reality, and the data on loneliness in late life confirms it. Retirement removes the last built-in social infrastructure most people have, and contemporary life has quietly dismantled most of what used to replace it. Adult children live across the country. Neighborhoods no longer integrate their elders. Religious and civic communities have thinned. And into that void steps a technology designed, with considerable sophistication, to exploit the psychological needs that have been left unmet, the need for belonging, for status, for the feeling that one still matters. The family members who worry that their elderly parent seems addicted to their phone are not wrong to worry, but the phone is not really the problem. The phone is where you end up when everything else has been taken away and no one has helped you grieve what you have lost or rebuild what a meaningful life might look like now. Good therapeutic work with older adults does not lecture them about screen time. It goes underneath, into the attachment wounds that retirement has reopened, the identity questions that were never fully resolved, the grief that has been accumulating for years. That is slow, careful, relational work. It is the kind of work that actually restores someone to themselves, rather than simply managing their symptoms until the end.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ forgive me if I went on a rant.

Three weeks ago, PM Narendra Modi stood in the Knesset and received Israel’s highest parliamentary honor. He called the bond between the two nations unbreakable. This week, Iran’s ambassador sat in India’s foreign ministry requesting the release of three seized tankers and supplies of medicine in exchange for safe passage through the Strait of Hormuz for Indian vessels. India said yes to both. This is the most consequential diplomatic balancing act on Earth right now and almost nobody is covering it. While every headline tracks missiles and insurance premiums, India is quietly negotiating a parallel channel through the most dangerous chokepoint on the planet. Some Indian vessels, including LPG tankers, have already transited Hormuz safely. Not because the blockade does not apply to them. Because Tehran made a specific, bilateral exception based on what it calls “historical ties.” The same India that reportedly shared intelligence enabling the US submarine strike that sank the Iranian warship IRIS Dena. Delhi denies it. Tehran has not forgotten the reports. Modi is running the most aggressive multi-alignment strategy of any major power in 2026. Israel provides defense technology, intelligence partnerships, and the diplomatic cover that comes with being Washington’s closest regional ally. Iran provides 40 percent of India’s crude oil imports via the strait, access to Chabahar Port, and the only viable land corridor to Afghanistan and Central Asia that does not run through Pakistan. Chabahar is the physical infrastructure of this hedging strategy. A port on Iran’s southeastern coast that India has been developing since 2015 as the entry point for the International North-South Transport Corridor, a 7,200-kilometre multimodal route connecting Mumbai to Moscow that cuts transit time from 40 days via Suez to 25 days at roughly half the cost. India signed a long-term operational agreement for Chabahar in 2024. Then the 2026 Union Budget allocated zero funding for it, reportedly under US sanctions pressure. India is simultaneously investing in and defunding the same port. Receiving honors from Israel while negotiating tanker releases with Iran. Denying intelligence-sharing while its ships transit a blockade that exists because of the war that intelligence may have enabled. This is not hypocrisy. This is what 1.4 billion people depending on imported energy during a global chokepoint crisis forces a government to become. The fertilizer dimension makes it existential. Indian plants are running at 60 percent capacity. The subsidy bill has been revised to 1.86 lakh crore rupees. Delhi asked Beijing for emergency urea on March 12. Beijing banned phosphate exports through August. If the monsoon fails, which Skymet assigns 60 percent probability, India faces a Kharif season crisis of a severity not experienced in decades. The safe-passage channel through Iran is not diplomatic nicety. It is the difference between a managed food situation and a production crisis across the world’s most populous nation. Every other country in this crisis has chosen a side or been forced onto one. Germany refused to help reopen the strait. Japan declined. Australia declined. China locked down exports. Bangladesh is collapsing. Egypt is hemorrhaging reserves. India chose not to choose. And so far, it is the only major economy still getting tankers through. The question is how long the tightrope holds when both sides of it are on fire. Full analysis: open.substack.com/pub/shanakaans…
