We all need a place to play. Kids need playgrounds and sandboxes. Musicians need an instrument. Mad scientists need a laboratory. Those of us with business ideas? We need a company.

我们需要学会的是让城市青年在星巴克里加班的时候，感受到能喝得起星巴克的幸福，而不是抱怨自己在加班。让困在县城里的小镇青年，感受到能准点下班的幸福，而不是抱怨自己赚不到更多的钱。 这里可能会有人质疑，这不是自我洗脑吗？其实在某种程度上是的，而且在本文的后面，我会给出非常具体的“自我洗脑”教程。因为，在当下的社会，如果你不自己给自己洗脑，不反复强化自身的价值锚定。你就会被消费主义或工作主义洗脑。 因此，我们至少需要一种自我洗脑来抵御外部的洗脑来维持我们自身的平静。 即，一种正向的，对我们有利的习得性快乐。

所以，实际上没有所谓的低质量快乐，与低质量幸福。人生的幸福，是一生中每个时刻幸福度的积分，而幸福度是一种只与“当下”有关的主观体验。

文科的学术训练核心是培养人的批判性思维。简单一点说，批判性思维培养我们分析复杂文本、数据或社会事实的能力，让我们对那些视为当然的观念提出质疑，甚至把自己也纳入被质疑的对象，也就是鼓励自我反思，它要求我们从多元视角加以思考，尤其让我们关注事物的伦理维度。

Alternatively pay more attention to every moment no matter how mundane. Plunge into the life you already have with twice the intensity and your life will feel twice as full and will be remembered as lasting twice as long.

That is the key: you are not alone. You may feel alone, but that just means that you haven't found your community yet. Although you are surely unique in many ways, you are also human, and you are a product of places and times. Whatever you care about, no matter how personal it feels, lots of other people care about it too. Your job is to imagine that community of practice out there, its members all thinking together, however quietly, about the topic that most concerns you. Your community needs a language, it needs an association, it needs a clubhouse, and it needs a voice. Your voice. That's how it works. Your zine is your hook in the ocean, your magnet attracting all of the other people who share your values. As you hear from them, you will have the interlocutors you need to develop your voice. You'll never hear from most of them, but you can imagine them. Imagining your community also prevents burnout: your community's members are all out there doing great things, and so the whole weight of the world is not on your shoulders. Burnout helps no one.

The difference is tabs. Far beyond invasive marketing, "JavaScript," the absorption of data from nearly all humans for the ultimate goal of profit and unending surveillance, or anything else, what genuinely killed the World Wide Web was tabs. Humans are incapable of true multi-tasking, and as a species we have trouble keeping much at all in our active memories. Depending on the language you speak, there's somewhere between five and thirteen items you can keep in your head at once. The introduction of tabs into the toolbox of Web users single-handedly destroyed any hopes we may once have had of the Web being a source of infinite, global potential that could reach across borders and create a better, more meritocratic society.
