In the midst of "its so over", I found there was, within me, an invincible "were so back."

The ‘21 NFT bull market was driven in part by the ongoing crisis of meaning in society. We projected meaning, community, identity to fill a growing void. The memecoin trend was the antithesis, a return to the void—anti-meaning, anti-community, nihilism-as-identity. Content coins attempt a synthesis of the two.

Land snorkeling is very /slowcore-hq X /nature Land snorkeling ... Just wander through nature with no destination, paying close attention to the plants, animals, and natural features around you, like a snorkeler floating through the shallows of a coral reef. While every hiker has land snorkeled at some point in their life, it’s something many of us become less and less willing to dedicate our time to as we become more focused on making miles and reaching summits... https://www.backpacker.com/trips/trips-by-state/montana-trails/land-snorkeling-american-prairie/

I just got my road bike fixed up after so many years of a broken front derailleur and spotty shifting on the back — like getting a new bike — just gotta make time to get out there

Tech solutionism fundamentally misunderstands creativity. It approaches art as a distribution problem to be optimized when art is a method for self actualization (the top of Maslow’s pyramid). Once our basic needs are met—food, shelter, safety, community—we create. Not because we're seeking financial reward, but because creation is how we become fully human. We need to make art, and we need to be seen making it. This is why platforms that try to "fix" art with financialization are using the wrong tools for the wrong problem. It's like trying to measure love with a ruler or weigh curiosity on a scale. Content coins apply efficiency metrics to something that gains its value precisely from inefficiency, from human labor, from context, from the messy business of being alive and seen by others within a community that cares.

(Having only seen the movies...) I can't help but think of Sonny when reading "the sleazy, senseless, insipid acts of violence" — it's like Puzo predicted the move in that direction and/or that change was baked into the hand off from one generation to the next.

I started reading this when Game of Thrones was in its third or fourth season. GoT really raised the bar for political machinations and those in PoeT feel really simplistic by comparison.
