    The body works in sensible ways for some things, so it’s easy to forget that we’re a product of a system that makes an arbitrary change as long as the improved chance of propagation outweighs the side effects which there probably will be some because we’re a deeply interconnected mess.





  • more curious how you actually get into a good headspace and stay there day to day

    Anything you can do to take care of yourself and get what you need helps with this, cooking for yourself, getting enough sleep, getting exercise, spending time in nature, spending time with people, cleaning, etc. Aside from the direct benefits of things that make you healthier, the experience of the act is a tangible reassurance that you are there for yourself, so don’t buy into an idea that it isn’t worthwhile.

    Also if you like anime at all one that I liked where the theme is 20s life advice is The Tatami Galaxy



  • I also watch and like that channel, it definitely has a bias and affinity, but IMO it is well researched and does a good job of explaining that perspective and the rationale behind it as opposed to just reciting talking points. I liked the most recent video about the threat of permanent dystopias, even though I don’t agree with some of the implicit assumptions it’s making about the nature of the problem (Rationalist stuff leans neoliberal). It’s fun and probably important to think about the long term future of humanity in an analytical way, sci-fi style.
