You're really smart and really great to see in my feed every day, Sofia. When you say you actually honestly want all of us to be happy, I believe you and, I think you might already have skills to start making that happen, to say nothing of what you'll look like in 2-5 years.

I've already said this before, but I'll say it again, because I think it bears repeating.

Where MAPWorld is right now is a place of fear, defeatism, and extreme risk-aversion. Because of this, attempts to even discuss building tech to help us come together offline, to BETTER come together online, and to be happier and healthier are always met immediately with commentary from people about how difficult or overly risky these projects would be.

So, step one for us is to be able to change our fear/hope balance and to start becoming a bit braver and more ambitious. We can't even begin to get serious about community, infrastructure, and wealth until we get to a place where we seriously believe those things are even possible.

You want to help all of us be happy? Start thinking about how to give the people that push in the right direction. What can be said, and what small things could actually maybe DONE to begin to uhhh, to fertilize our mental soil so that we can start growing more hope and belief and less fear. :)
