The above is from Oliver Burkeman's marvellous newsletter. I love it as general advice. And in the context of social media, I think it has an interesting flipside. 70% is a *high* standard for content on here (say) to meet. Pause, reread. If you're not living up to this, delete.
A newsletter on the usefulness of hasty, heartfelt writing; plus some suitably speedy thoughts on AI, critical thinking and the future of literature. open.substack.com/pub/tomchatf...
"If you think you might have something to contribute, don’t you have some kind of duty to move forward at 70%, instead of depriving us of your contribution thanks to your finicky and frankly rather self-indulgent insistence on perfection?"

Do share; do join the conversation.
Saw @tomchatfield.bsky.social last week, and he gave me a sneak peek at his forthcoming book ‘How To Think Clearly’, where he’d pointed to my #cognitivedebt coinage from earlier this year.
So I have written a proper page laying out the thinking, examples etc… smithery.com/cognitive-de...
