The Case Against Morning Yoga, Daily Routines, and Endless Meetings

I love newsletters, its fine to get them by email, but other companies send me bs, its the reason I dont want to open my mail and read.
In a time of over-optimised content I adore aesthetics of standalone blogs, which run on pure HTML, plus some bits of CSS.
Those are pieces out of infinite matrix of social media, like LinkedIn, Twitter, Medium. They don’t run after hype, outreach, likes. They simply don’t care.
I will edit this table a bit and share it here.
And the worst part is - that I know its where, valuable knowledge sits tight, and not used. That thing will cause guilt and pain.
So I decided to solve this puzzle from the other side: just stop saving. I left only with Notes. I dont save articles, videos. I dont even use social media, (except Reddit) cuz it overwhelms me.
Peaceful life online:
1) Quit social media (cuz of over-optimized content, clickbait)
2) Read only blogs and newsletters (nor Linkedin, Twitter, Medium)
3) Keep Reddit for fun (the only place which survived, cuz users there cheap)
4) Replace constant consuming with writing notes, reading notes, producing stuff.
As a huge fan of Rick and Morty I was amazed by enthusiasts who decided to build “Pass Butter” robot, powered by AI. Why not?
