  • Yeah, my topic is basically about ideas on how to deal with our current environment and projects that can help with this including venturing into the woods to reconnect with them, but also some other things that are included such as medieval fantasy based story writing, a video series project which takes place mostly in the woods and can include a scavenger hunt to search for and find a number of certain things, etc. which would be much better for young people than staying indoors and constantly on tablets and phones. This can also help reconnect with natural magics and show things that are on the verge of becoming forgotten in favor of thinking that the next best thing is better, when that may not be the case as it leads to enshittification, such as the degradation which can be seen via remakes of Cartoon and TV Series, the increase in pollution, and internet sites that are going to shit with so many ads an enshittification.

    My aim is to hopefully open and encourage discussion on this and about how it might be better to move away from a number of technologies and find happiness being outside, in the wilderness, and mystical places, and to look at what certain kinds of technologies may be doing to us, what needs to be rejected to regain happiness, and also what or who we are fueling by being lured into getting the next best technical thing that hits the market and where their interest lies, and are they trustworthy or are they very greedy. The idea is basically like looking at things that existed decades or longer ago that are becoming forgotten, what did we walk away from while being lured into something else we think is better when it might not be, and what feels like would be a good idea to bring back into the mainstream.

    Anyway, I did take a look in !simpleliving@lemmy.ml and I’m not one-hundred percent about that being the right place for this. Probably would need to check with @inasaba@lemmy.ml about that, even though this currently has me thinking a new community may need to be made for it.
