🚨 SCROLL CHECK 🚨 do you want to be scrolling? would now be a good time to put the phone down and move, maybe get some sunshine? if not, carry on, scrolling is also good. i’m not your mum

hey you might be sitting in a room, looking at a screen, surrounded by walls we evolved on the African savannah with clear views a long way. we could see the horizon wherever you are, just remember that the horizon exists out there, in all directions, even if you can’t see it does connecting to the horizon feel good?

Farcaster question if I post something into a channel, does it *only* go into the channel? Or do I need to also post this, in my view, banger thread also not in the channel

There's a podcast episode where Joe Hudson says: “Joy is the matriarch of a family of emotions and she won’t come into a house where her children aren’t welcome.” if you constantly resist or avoid all the 'bad' feelings that you don't want to feel (fear, shame, anger, disgust, etc) you'll never feel joy
