I enjoyed reading this. It shows how embodying things by being personally invested, incuring long-term costs is more satisfying than the floating analysis of effective altruism. Thank you for writing this.

Wow, awesome essay!

As someone with a keen interest in history and philosophy, I really enjoyed this. Especially as EA gets so much credit, I found it super interesting to read a counter argument.

Such a great idea to "create more beauty". I think the modern world devalues beauty to its own detriment. Reading this makes me want to plant a tree!

Amazing work! Can't wait to dig into more of your writing :)
