Great comment. I agree. Dream journal can be pretty wild, after a couple of days I can remember like 5 dreams every night, until I have to stop because It's a lot and it's very intense. Pretty awesome. I would also add hypnosis, s

I just did MDMA 3 times in my life with controlled dose and environment. I don't recommend drug use. When I first tried it I just realized alcohol is not fun. In fact is a shitty drug. We think we are having a good time because everybo

Good old forums. I am lucky I found one in my own language recently. We are a small community, like 250 active users. Most of it is joking, having a blast, and insulting. It's very funny. For me forums are the best of internet. I don&#

Yes exactly, this is the magic of Emacs, you customize it to your needs and liking. Also witting your own elisp functions to manage buffers and have it mapped to some keys and commands opens a infinite dimension. For me it's like the h

Your comment made me read the intro. Good book, I read a lot of self help books and this seems to be a quality one. Easy to read, dynamic but not story dense. I'll keep reading it. Thank you for recommending it.

It makes sense. Do you have any advice to someone who would start writing fiction books? I write a lot but only for myself. I don't care about money but I would like to persevere to some day be able to produce quality works in my own l

Books are awesome. Really. But reading is the first step. You never learn only by reading. You have to relate the ideas with your prior knowledge and practice it or apply it somewhere. You also have to get a nice book. And have to practice

Great response. I would also add that art is also "created" when you consume it. When we consume it, we generate some interpretation, feelings or imagery. This is the last step. That's internal, but this processing of art is
