Notes on superstimulus


  • It's very small, and most people who I would want to talk to aren't here
  • I don't find it that rewarding to check because I don't see that much stuff.
  • That said, I do like it
    • I think it's because I feel some obligation to post minimally thoughtful things here. Where on FB / twitter / my personal slack channel, I just post whatever's on my mind.
    • This would be a bad omen if true
    • That said, it's possible that's because there's a decent quality of people here, and/or 2014-era FB was an unusually good architecture for hosting discussions.

I'm adopting a posting pattern of having a burst of posts in the evening - can't tell if this is nice because it promotes liveliness or annoying because "posts you make because you want to kick-start a thing" are not fun and/or because it's sad if there are a few posts in a row by the same person.

I guess one thing about few people being on here is that this feels sort of disconnected from 'real life' such that I tend to say different things here than I would say elsewhere.

My one complaint about my posting is that I could be having more nice pictures.
