"Would that I could gather your houses into my hand, and like a sower scatter them in forest and meadow -- But these things are not yet to be"

I call full detente with all bad parts of 's philosophy and humbly accept "Building the Zeroth culture" as a worthy banner for my further projects and intentions. Queue flag-planting, guardian-value derpism, the whole lot - I am "all in" to building and securing digital homes

Not meaning to scare you, but damn if your essay doesn't describe the "thing" I'd like to "help" with, for various values of "help" I know you're instinctually worried will be counter-productive and track in even greater Derp. I'll leave you out & work on my own; just inspired.

Replying to
the phrase "a digital nomad's home" is an oxymoron. it is everywhere and nowhere all at once

i do relate to the underlying sentiment. I grew up on the internet, it felt like home to me when/where my actual home didn't. it's why I have a blog, why I spend so much time doing things on it (not just passively consuming content but organizing communities, moderating, etc)

You wanted to know my project earlier? I'm stoked and poetic because *this* is the actual definition. My digital home is under attack, and I'm in the market for palisades.

I don't want to be discouraging, but something strikes me as weird about that. It feels like a clinging-to of a thing that is fundamentally about flux and change. Our digital home is different every day, to attempt to protect "it" with fences strikes me as a sort of taxidermy

Well, I'm very happy for you two. Plutocratic retreat is always an option for those who can afford it.
