media recommendations

Media recommendations are a great proxy for values and interests. The media we consume and advocate for reflect the ideas that are worth thinking about. Here are some essays, interviews, short stories, and videos that resonate the most with me.

essays

• there are hundreds of essays on the concept of hedonic treadmills and fulfillment but this is the first one that made me feel truly understood

• taking risks is fulfilling

interviews

• chamath has a really great understanding of nuance

• the most authentic interview I’ve ever listened to

short stories

• very thought provoking ideas on what could realistically happen if we tried to remove beauty from society

videos

• thoughts on using social media as a pacifier
