Maybe it's ok for writing to not be so editorialized as what you're used to? To me this read like a trip report from which the reader can draw their own conclusions without the author telling them what to think.
I wish more things I read on the internet were written in that style. I don't need to be told what conclusions to draw, I can figure it out myself.
- ccb92 3y agoAgreed, very earnest style.
- 8n4vidtmkvmk 3y agoI think this has royally screwed up my emotional intelligence. American media always tells you how you should react. One of my cousins once told me they were having a baby. I don't remember exactly what I said, but it wasn't "congratulations, I'm so happy for you". It just didn't click with me that this was an exciting thing for them that they wanted to share with me and I kind of regret not responding better.
- sanderjd 3y agoYeah, (especially social-) media is such brain poison. Unfortunately that includes HN!
