I want to follow some self aware growth oriented nerdy hedonists.
Any suggestions?

definitely checks all of those boxes
is all about "friendly ambitious nerds"
is the most hedonistic startup founder I know
is vibing & growing
is getting out of hand in a good way

I resent that.

not sure how to read your tone 🙃
but in any case wanting to be clear that I mean that in a really positive way—something I admire 🤩
if I imagine anyone else having the absurd growth trajectory you've had, I imagine them headed for burnout due to forgetting to enjoy life 😬

"fun-loving" might be the word I actually mean here, not "hedonistic"
words, man

oh hmm. there’s a pervasive confusion in american culture between “doing whatever you want” and hedonism

this is one of my fav QC threads
I took a Parenting course in uni which traced the "what we really want is hedonism" meme to Calvinists/Puritans (at least in the West) & I resent that frame so much
to reduce the passionate nature of humanity to baseness is species-level slander

Oh well
