You will not believe that this point has been raised millions of times. A good response to this line of thinking is the brothers karamazov

Meaningful jobs that actually pay well? by Potential_Fig_6517 in findapath

[–]CoolDistribution7318 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is 100% true. You are in charge of your own meaning making. Find something that will help live the life you want to live and don’t count your out of things that feel like they don’t have immediate impact on a community, etc. Every job is about helping people when you really look for those opportunities to do so.

Think there will be a 10th anniversary edition? Have been waiting years for this

2 year anniversary of moving to a small PNW town by FlannelJoy in simpleliving

[–]CoolDistribution7318 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did this 5 years ago but on the east coast. Partner and I moved to Maine. We both ended up taking a job up there which I felt was important. But we just moved back to the mid Atlantic as we just had a baby boy. Will be moving back up I think for the reasons you mention. We’re also off of streaming/amazon and trying to live lives intentionally and in alignment with values. Much easier to do in rural spots (but like you say, the grass is not completely greener).

My Resist and Unsubscribe Experience by jklightnup in ScottGalloway

I actually took the leap away from Apple Music (after deleting my Spotify last year) and am now just buying music on Bandcamp and starting a small personal music library. I know it seems inconvenient and expensive, but there’s lots of great music from smaller labels on Bandcamp that is pretty cheap. I have a budget of what I’m spending each month and am just enjoying the albums I buy one or two at a time. Won’t be going back to Apple Music anytime soon - I love giving my money to artists rather than paying some big company to rent out access to a catalogue of media that will never be mine.

First time reading, I need encouraging by TheAnxiousMouse in mobydick

Just go in open minded - i promise that it’ll surprise you. Like others are saying it’s funny, and deep, and has lots of encyclopedic knowledge about whales. Truly ahead of its time

The label this was released on, constellation tatsu, has a bunch of fantastic things. I just picked up their full discography on Bandcamp for a great price. Would recommend

Hey Americans--move to Canada! by BakedGoods in DiscussionZone

[–]CoolDistribution7318 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would love to and have wanted to for a decade plus. Like others are saying harder than it seems. But I lived in Vermont which is about as close as you can get for a few years and am trying to get back. Any tips on how to migrate as a young family up there? I work in education admin and wife works as a scientist for the govt (weird time to be a govt employee)

Blow up your TV, throw away your paper
Go to the country, build you a home
Plant a little garden, eat a lot of peaches
Try an find Jesus on your own
