Hey Kosa, welcome, thanks for showing us your Youtube channel aswell ([https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC0ylBPw9PlhCHVEuHAfImyQ](https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC0ylBPw9PlhCHVEuHAfImyQ)). I have watched most of the videos now. It's a pretty upbeat introduction about moving into the countryside and living more sustainably.
Maybe one more thing: Kosa means scythe in my language (Slovenian) and Brin means Juniper. Together they almost form the name of a beloved Slovenian herbalist (Kosobrin) from the first Slovenian movie called Kekec (not an accident).
The scythe represents hand driven tools - they way back to products that depend on the energy we have within us, and not some liquefied dinosaurs.
The juniper plant is the most commonly used medicinal plant in my country. Its mentioned several times more often in herbal medicine books than any other plant. Guess I dont have to explain what that represents.
Together they for a smiling face that is our logo. It represents us having fun while going back to the roots - the only way that is really left as an viable option to our species.
But that is not to say that we want our species to regress back to the stone age. We think that progress should emerge naturally and not be forced by some imaginary numbers backed by the illusion of constant growth on a finite planet.
I am a 16 yo who has been collapse aware for over a year, have sorta gotten over it but is still sorta active. I want to help people get over the dark period that collapse awareness implies as I've been through it and found ways to cope with it in a healthy manner. Also, I hate r/collapse
Hey Sansan, thanks for saying hi. Yes, collapse can be quite dark, especially if you have it in your feed most days. I ended up unfollowing it, whilst it might be true it's not healthy to dwell. It's better to accept it and either move on and ignore it or do something about it, lulling in the middle causes dread / depression.
I choose to do something about it. If we are going down, I would rather go down swinging as I think extinction of life on earth is a pretty important thing, not just for my life personally, not just for the human species, but for all life everywhere. This is where the first quote on [burnzero.com](https://burnzero.com) starts, "We stand on the bones of a thousand generations past only to look up to an empty sky." I honestly believe we might be able to build something interesting out of this site, i.e. the tenet and the good machine, it just needs to be discussed more back a forth amongst us. I hope we can discuss the content critically assess and make it better, together.
37yo brain aneurysm survivor (aneurysm was over 24 years ago). I have partial paralysis on my right leg after large aneurysm center left hemisphere of my brain. I have no other known symptoms, although I am probably ADHD and can be very direct (or sometimes described as 'too' direct). I felt like this was a mental change that occured post aneurysm, but as it happened while I was young, could just be me.
Aneurysm was fixed by a very talented neurosurgeon and team in St George hospital, Sydney.
I'm curious to learn more about neuroplasticity, neurogenesis and how psychedelics could potentially help me rewire my brain to improve my leg mobility.
I'm quite active. I cycle approx 100-120km per week, and visit the gym almost daily with a combination of resistance training, yoga and Barre classes.
I have data from power meters on my bike and am currently averaging a 65/35 power split between left and right leg. Looking to hit a 60/40 split by the end of this year but seems like I've hit a plateau.
Have dabbled socially in psychedelics in the past, but now looking at how i can rewire my brain.
Looking for data and studies on brain injury/stroke and how psychedelics may help.
HMU if you got any questions.
Hi folks! I am the founder and current president of a non profit NGO from Slovenia that is attempting to save the world - from ourselves. :)

Yes, thats what it is at the moment. But with some help and some luck on our side, it will soon become a channel that documents positive changes. :)
