cant wait for tags to come fr ( it’s coming in streams v2 )
it not being there kind of stops me from posting everything i want
because when i know everything’s gonna land up in the same junk, it becomes harder to find it later
but when i know i can categorize it / have an easier form of recovery- friction reduces a lot

talking about friction reducing; reminds me of this
when something is ephemeral it makes it so much easier to start doing
especially writing / work / planning
if you know something needs to be very “put together” / permanent,
it’s hard to start doing that from scratch
but when you know that it’s temporary and even just a word / initial few lines are enough for it & it’s made to be edited and worked upon later - it’s so much easier
again, this is why it’s so much easier to post on streams than substack or medium
this embraces crudity and incompleteness, they push towards completeness and finality which are traits which slow humans down
and for creative workers it’s even worse
there’s no “finality” in most work
considering something “done” is quite hard at times
takeaway is to reduce friction
