AI summary of the linked articleTouch Grass is a newsletter launched to surface what is happening onchain and on Lens, covering pop culture, art and news from the onchain social space. The newsletter argues that no one holds the authority to decide what is cool in these permissionless, decentralized spaces, and that its voices should be equally open. Its first issue highlights a range of projects, including letsglitchit's work on Orb, Refraction's open call for its ETHBerlin exhibition, and Garden.wtf, a project by Cody Brown and Jon Bo. It also features Steph's announcement of joining FWB as CMO and the MadFi team's request for builders for its Bonsai initiative. | |

 I know, I sound like the biggest loser when I say that, but I hate the „touch grass“ thing. If you want to be disliked by developers, go ahead and keep saying that. Yes, we are in a way very privileged because we can sit in front of our computers and make money. My privilege is not lost on me. But if I could consciously chose today, I think I personally would have not chosen to become a computer obsessed person. My life consists of sitting in a quiet room and minimizing interruptions for 8 hours or more a day. If I don‘t do this, I‘m not doing my job. And this obviously is downstream of my social life, which I have to very carefully curate as 8-10hrs a day are „lost“ staring at a screen, concentrating, isolating. I dream of doing many jobs where I‘m „touching grass“ naturally. It‘s all fantasy, the software dev job is just too convenient, powerful and I have a decade of professional experience. But „Touching grass“, that‘s what bullies said to me in high school when I presented too internet-brained. It‘s just not nice. I‘ve always been very focused on the computer and I don‘t think I can fundamentally change that. Otherwise the newsletter has interesting links and everything haha  ahhh! Lol I didn‘t see that even 🤣 well anyways let it be known what is my opinion on touching grass | |
