After months of hardly any rain, I’m really enjoying a cozy day stuck indoors just listening to the downpour; getting on with doing some house cleaning. Is it too premature to declare this autumn⁇

Hey hola, aquí un hispanohablante que ingresó por curiosidad. No creo pasarme mucho por aquí pero igual aquí andamos por ahora.

Hey, hi! This is a Spanish speaker who joined out of curiosity. I don't think I'll be around much, but I'm here for now.

I want this expanded and enacted by one of those guys doing Jordan Peterson impersonations :D

I think yes, but precisely NOT "at a philosophical level". You can have it only if you get your hands dirty and build it yourself. I think already proved this, just as a close example.

If speaking on a philosophical level, then first we have to ask: what’s “nice” and what’s “to have” 👀

replied to:

If you consider what you have nice, you can have nice things. If your expectations to your surroundings are very very low, you will be amazed with all the nice things you get from people you meet through your day. My personal approach.

Just started, and two made it to be block list. This is going well! :-D

replied to:

Didn't realize there's a block list! Good to include, even when the point is minimalism.

replied to:

It is good it exists. “Registration” is fairly open (and that’s good!), which could make the platform prone to abuse (and that’s bad).
