What is Regarder?

Hey everyone,

I owe you an explanation—and honestly, a big thank you for your support as I've been quietly building something over these past months.

You know me as someone who spends days in courtrooms and nights thinking about difficult questions: How do power structures actually work? What makes institutions legitimate? Why do some systems serve people while others just exploit them?

Regarder started as my space for working through these ideas. Essays, meditations, thoughts about justice and governance that courts can't answer. Writing that helps me think through problems that don't have easy solutions.

Over the next few months, you'll see this grow into what it was always meant to be: a platform for sustained thinking about questions that matter. The kind of careful attention to how power works that might actually lead somewhere better.

The ideas we're exploring here—about attention as our most valuable resource, about building systems that serve people rather than extract from them—these aren't just academic exercises. They're the foundation for different ways of organizing work and institutions that I'm starting to prototype.

My legal background gives me one perspective, but real insight needs voices I don't have. That's why this platform lives by "peut-être"—"perhaps." I'm more interested in better questions than final answers.

If you believe that justice is something you practice, not just think about—and that paying close attention might be the most important thing we can do right now—then you're already part of this.

Thank you for being here and for believing that careful thinking can lead to meaningful change.
