@[email protected] True though, it is not effective? We are talking right now in a non-profit area of the internet achieved through open source contributions and community participation :)

I'd say that's a pretty nice, effective thing that has been accomplished

@[email protected] Well to be honest, there was a time on the internet that felt like people produced content which was not driven in any way by profit. This content was purely made to socialise with other people who spent a lot of time using the internet.

I think the internet has a lot of potential for being a place for growing ourselves individually and socially, instead of being somewhere toxic or profit driven. That's what I mean by productive: growing ourselves and growing community. Also growing these things without some form of profiting company looming over it.

That's how I view something like the fediverse, or how I view personal blogs like your own blog for example.

Or, should we consume more content that is conducive to being social? What type of content would that be?

I'm a vegan and love fake meat, I love tofu, I love seitan, I love beyond burger, I love mountains of veggies. I love bean burgers, veggie burgers, pakora, etc.

I do not like cauliflower in any other form than in its OG form, lmao..

@[email protected] That's intriguing! I'll see if I like doing this in my obsidian daily note :) My daily note consists of a list of timestamps which I used a template to automatically place in my bullet pointed daily-note lists, each timestamp has a thought that I have next to it usually, so I'll try incorporating those descriptions you're talking about into that!

@[email protected] That's awesome :) I'm happy for you - even if you don't get to that final goal, all the steps you're taking towards it will improve your life surely.

Also want to note for anyone reading this that you too can live slowly in many ways even if you're not doing well financially.

@[email protected] I've been taking notes for almost everything I do, and writing essays, todo's, thoughts I have in obsidian and linking it all together. So for example if I'm reading a book, I'll make a note for that book and take little notes whenever I have some fleeting thought about it. This helps me have like, something beside me whenever I'm doing something which helps me slow down my actions and think slower.

Also I've recently been liking the concept of a "forever world" in Minecraft - a world you play in forever, forever cultivating what you've made and shaping it over years. I play for 20 minutes a day but sometimes I even play for a couple of hours. While playing I play slowly, try not to sprint so I can take in the creations I've made and the environment. Also incorporating the notes into this (mostly just logs about thoughts I have while playing).

But yeah the essence of all this is just to not rush the things I'm doing like I have a bad habit of doing. I often rush things and then don't even complete the thing that I was doing anyway. Living more slowly allows me to do things more intentionally and just go at my own pace regardless of whether or not I'm gonna "complete" something.

@[email protected] True. Even like, 20 minutes a day in your forever world is really rewarding! I walk around, shape the world in some kind of way, might even stay in the game for a couple hours depending on how much fun I'm having, and log out.

@[email protected] Since you mentioned Terraria and Minecraft, I'll put Core Keeper on the table too! :) It's fantastic, especially Co-op

Should probably also mention I am using the BSL Shader

I LOVE chips and hot salsa... mmm delish!

dang-er
