    I recall an Indian guru in a YouTube video once quipping “Many followers have asked me, how do I quiet my brain. I tell them ‘your brain can be cleared of all thoughts only once, and then your family holds your funeral.’ Meditation is not the absence of thoughts but the acceptance of thoughts without interaction.”


  • Fix things and keep them, fix things and sell them on the secondhand market, or fix things owned by friends who have broken things. By applying my technical knowledge to repairing computers, appliances, tools, furniture, plumbing, I’m building my own self-sustainability, I’m enabling others to avoid buying new things and instead spend their money in better ways, I’m networking with people who have skills that I lack, I’m denying the manufacturers the revenue they would get if there wasn’t someone like me to fix their shit, and I’m denying the govt the taxes involved in new purchases and income tax on my secondhand sales, and I’m denying the voracious landfill of its tasty, tasty whitegoods.
