I’ve done both, though I have been typing mostly over the last couple of years.

There are those who feel that the act of writing by hand, while slower, can have benefits that typing doesn’t. Not sure I believe that, though I do believe that for some, hand writing is just the more enjoyable way to go.

For me, I write in Org Mode, which for this purpose is kind of like Markdown. I use Emacs on my computer, and an app called Plain Org on my phone.




On that note, you can edit titles in Lemmy, which you can’t do on Reddit. So that’s a pretty great upgrade.


Engine Summer by John Crowley. I’m only about 100 pages in, but liking it so far.


I loved the first Foundation, but never read beyond that, for some reason. I know I have the first trilogy around here somewhere. I should dig up the other ones.


Lifting: I definitely don’t like while I’m doing it.

Riding my bike though: it’s great to get out there early in the morning and explore, see nature, etc. with the bike, I also just like the feeling of speed, so the physical act of riding can actually be enjoyable.

To a lesser degree, the same can apply to running. I find that when I’ve been in better shape, I could experience that runner’s high.


I just swiped your comment a short way, so please enjoy your upvote (which I can confirm worked).


After you mentioned it, I had to check out Pi. I really liked it! If you haven’t seen it, you should check out David Lynch’s Eraserhead. I find it sort of similar, and also pretty fucked up.


I don’t know all of his stuff, though Mother! was pretty stressful to watch.



Starbucks coffee, and even more so, their tea. Just doesn’t seem like a good use of my money, since I can make it at home for a lot less money.
