I am a designer that fell into manipulating computers. In previous lives I did After Effects and grip work, agency design work, and worked as an apprentice machinist.
My wife is also a designer and is an ambitious gardener and naturalist. She shares her work on her website:
We are racing towards ejecting ourselves from capitalism to farm and live out the rest of our lives in harmony with nature. In 2024 we purchased 50 acres to start that journey.
The longest journey you will take in your life is from here [points to head] to here [points to heart].

The Unsettling of America by Wendell Berry is the most important book you'll ever read.
Manifesto: The Mad Farmer Liberation Front by Wendell Berry
Understand that the body
Is merely the foam of a wave,
The shadow of a shadow.
Snap the flower arrows of desire
And then, unseen,
Escape the king of death.
And travel on.

My dad has an extreme (if not understandable) stance on littering: If you are caught tossing trash out of the window of your car, you should be pulled over and executed.
His reasoning: "It is the utmost epitome of laziness and disregard. When was the last time you have been anywhere in public where there wasn't a garbage can within 100ft of you? If you throw trash out of your window, that proves that you don't have the wherewithal to wait until one appears, because they always show up at some point. If someone doesn't have the patience to sit and do nothing until the answer to their problem manifests out of nowhere, why should we bother with them in the first place?"
