It really is!!

was craving mom's yeast-free sheet pan pizza so asked her for a recipe and went right on to make it

We should take the pressure off of that particular staging of writing and writerliness. Instead, we can look for thinking elsewhere; everywhere. I think that's how we reclaim thinking for ourselves.

If we want to help people find, cultivate, and reclaim intrinsic pleasure and power in thinking, it is helpful (and less elitist) to recognize how thinking is materialized through, with, and across many activities, practices and media.

so elegant, so demure

I find such diversity of experiences exciting as well. Wish I could read a good exploration about how this leads to different internal processes and different outputs (or not), and in what ways.

Oh wow I find the start of it a little too assertive and overly generalized hmmm

I tend to think the quality of writing may be orthogonal. I do believe it really is how some (many) people think through things. It's just not a universal fact. I find that the act of writing is rather disruptive to my thinking. Human experience varies a lot.

I think at this point the anti-AI hype has gotten quite as powerful as well so we keep seeing a lot of poorly designed studies and overhyped results doing the rounds because they confirm existing beliefs.

I had read it as note down anyway lol

😂😭

I could use some of that right about now for my wrist

Oh I guess I don't. I find thinking a very distinct process from writing.

It's nice to be able to organize it. Mine just happens. I let it be.

My previous musings on the topic

Once again I find that I think better when I'm not writing. When I need to write something, I think about it throughout the day, while chopping onions, trying to fall asleep, reading something unrelated... It's only then that I know what to write. "Writing is thinking" is decidedly not me.

So relatable

Awwwww love that. Goes well with the yelling 😍😂

💞 It's great when that happens, no? Still, Random used to give me attitude for days on our return. Pseudo is always absolutely nonchalant.

Oh no, you're in trouble!
