Is reading technically considered consuming content? Fun and it’s a pretty cheap hobby if you have library access or go to used bookstores!
I’m just really bad at forming habits. I know what I need to do, I can come up with routines or ways to do it, maybe even do it for a couple of days. But I just can’t seem to ever get habits I want to form to last for any length of time.

Love the color combination!
Ann Patchett continues to impress, both Bel Canto and The Dutch House were excellent. Loved Sea of Tranquility by Emily St. John Mandel. Also discovered T. Kingfisher; read Thornhedge and Nettle & Bone, and definitely want to read more of her stuff.
It’s just crappy that good, ethical, quality clothes do cost a lot more. I absolutely understand why, but man does it suck for the average consumer nowadays.
I’ve been slowly upgrading and updating my wardrobe over the last couple of years, and I’ve bought a lot second hand and then been trying to put my money towards the most sustainable/ethical choices that I can when I buy new stuff. (And I realize that being able to do that is a luxury, too.)
Whoa, I had no idea that was a thing. Horrific!
several stages where it looked like it was failing, and it’s actually really important to just let that happen, it’s part of the cycle…
Forestry advice and/or life advice?
I loved Thinking, Fast and Slow. I really enjoyed how he included a lot of the questions and tests he used so you could answer them as you read the book.
All of my favorite clothes are thrifted!
I haven’t read it yet, but check out Let Us Now Praise Famous Men. It’s writing and photojournalism focusing on sharecroppers during the Great Depression.
I’ve been borrowing ebooks from the library, and having one checked out on my phone helps with the doomscrolling.
You’ve got some good ones in there! Is that a bookmark in each book (the same as the card in the pics)? Good idea!
Not being on Reddit has definitely improved my mental health.
More reading: books, magazines, newspapers. Also trying to get more exercise.
As little as possible.
I relate to this a lot. I was on Reddit for over a decade, too, when I left after the third-party apps shut down. I loved a lot of the discussion over there (once I got away from some of the big subs and found smaller ones), and still kind of miss it. There really was a period of sadness when I left. I’m trying to be active over here to help these communities grow, but it’s hard to get back into it and be motivated sometimes.
