what’s the strata post? a refresher!…there’s such a breadth of knowledge, insights and resources on substack that i’ve never “felt bad” about scrolling through substack posts at night…i just didn’t want to be staring at another screen.
last summer, i saw someone had printed out newsletters and was bringing them on a plane as their reading materials. this is what inspired this new column: the strata post.
much like how strata bites first started (back in 2021!), the strata post includes an aggregation of substack posts that sparked my interest along with a “cover” to print out with the ‘stacks so you can take your substack reading offline.
print this cover!
once you have the cover…print, read & enjoy these!
how to *brainwash* yourself to get everything you want in life! by Nicole Victoria | Glow Society — a trendy term for this is “future tripping” (or good ol’ manifestation), but there’s more to it than that. my parents always taught me that the first step to being able to achieve what you want is wholeheartedly believing you can. not in a delulu way, more in a “no one is going to get it done for you” kind of way.
research as a hobby by kayla noel johnson — kayla’s explanation here perfectly described how i find myself going down research rabbit holes…”being able to start with a simple idea and going through a series of channels and forums to absorb information about the topic creates space for one to explore new things, in turn making space for new possibilities that hadn’t been unlocked quite yet.”
10 online philosophy courses i’d take if i had any f*ing free time by Meaghan Green — i subscribe to the “a.b.l” (always be learning) method in life so, resources like this are always bookmarked and incredibly appreciated over here.
067 - why the girls are building cyberdecks by Amni Raihan — not only do i love that someone built a cyberdeck into a polly pocket home but how could this not be appealing (if you’re here, i’m guessing it is)…“they purposely live separate from your existing devices for people who want to take back control of their screens, without ads or without other distracting features.”
how to be someone who actually does things by evermuse — an important blueprint. my personal favorites? “start small but stay consistent” and “do it with a childlike wonder”
how publishers decide which authors go on book tours by Abigail Monti — what happens after the book is finished and the side of book tours that goes unseen
38 ways to create more than you consume, while you consume by Tuğba Avci — it’s inherently easier to consume than create, but i found this list really approachable for anyone who wants to make small tweaks towards creativity over consumption
