I remember several years ago r/Casual Conversation was brimming with interesting and candid discussion. As it gained more and more traction I saw it go through the same evolution that killed r/IAmA and r/askreddit. More popularity means more traffic, more traffic means more posts, more posts means stricter moderating, stricter moderating means less “casual” posts. Before long it was just another upvote machine, and that’s when I dipped out.
So having said that, how is your morning going? Did you do anything cool this weekend?
Taking some time for yourself is always a good thing and that’s not a waste of time. We shouldn’t feel bad about not being productive. Life isn’t about being productive every waking second, and feeling bad about that is not productive or helpful at all. Sure we all have things to get done. And one of those things is to take care of ourselves. Is watching an hour long lion documentary a waste of it’s good for you?
