Skill in living, awareness of belonging to the world, delight in being part of the world, always tends to involve knowing our kinship as animals with animals... Relationship among all things appears to be complex and reciprocal - always at least two-way, back and forth. It seems that nothing is single in this universe, and nothing goes one way.
In this view, we humans appear as particularly lively, intense, aware nodes of relation in an intinite network of connections, simple or complicated, direct or hidden, strong or delicate, temporary or very long-lasting. A web of connections, infinite but locally fragile, with and among everything - all beings - including what we generally class as things, objects.

Good morning / afternoon / evening to you, fellow Broadcast listener!
I have been meaning to share something with you for a while now. It’s about a pretty important message, so I think I will pin it.
So, being an admin is actually way more time-consuming than I thought. More life-consuming than I thought, even. After all, there is no getting around the fact that there is a real person behind this “admin” persona. I don’t think that I was quite aware of it myself.
What I was not aware either was that one sacrifices a great deal of free time being an admin of a moderately successful page. For better or worse, I’m pretty picky with the content I choose to share, which makes me spend hours upon hours trying to find a decent meme, or quote, or some piece of art. Add to that the fact that I have a full-time job, and that results in more than 10 hours of screen time every single day.
Granted I’m glad that this channel grew into what it is now, and never in my life could I have imagined that I would be getting this amount of overwhelming support. I have found a great community (and I love each one of you in the discussion group) and, to my surprise, I have found that people are genuinely interested in what I have to share. Yet I would lie if I said that it doesn’t interfere with my everyday life. I believe that some kind of digital detox would help me tremendously, not even taking into account my social withdrawal, or personal issues.
Exposition aside, the point: I think right now scheduling posts for the whole day works well, it does not, however, solve the issue of me wasting a lot of time trying to find memes. Fine. Eventually I plan to slow down. There is no definite deadline. And, you guessed it, at some point I would have to move on, for my own sake. Probably by the end of this year it will be hasta la vista, baby.
It’s not set in stone and I’m still unsure as to what to do. If you have any suggestions, or if you’ve had similar experience, feel free to drop a line in private messages @frankieteardrop.
Thank you for reading.
