Book Club: How To Do Nothing (+ Extra New Thing) (Patreon)

take a hint from my YouTube channel in 2023 and learn how to do nothing at allhappy candian thanksgiving. make sure to thanks your givings.I am going to call our book club Kill The Internet. I think it's funny and even a useful mantra to keep it mind while navigating life. Byt miore than anything i can't get the aesthetic tastiness out of my mouth and i googled it and foudn this song by Duff Mckagan that i can't stop listening to bc it makes me laugh in a good way. I wanna hear another version of it in the style of We Appreciate Power by Grimes.  Maybe i'll make itU can try to fix the internet and all of life and all, but it's good to be with people who also want to kill it. Just a little bit.Let's get to How To Do Nothing.(Which you can buy! Or obtain in pdf form. Through means.)

Schedule:

We're slowing again and doing about 30 pages a week. Human speed.We all got things to do..Sunday Oct 22- (Introduction) + Chapter 1 ThreadSunday Oct 29- Chapter 2 ThreadSunday November 5- Chapter 3 ThreadSunday November 12- Chapter 4 ThreadSunday November 19- Chapter 5 ThreadSunday November 26- Chapter 6 ThreadSunday Dec 3 - ConclusionWe've been way more hardcore in page count in the past, but i am struggling, hope you all are also struggling <3This is gentle mode let's see how it goes. Maybe it's more sustainable! Maybe you need to shut up and think more while ingesting less content. On brand for book. And there's someting else too.

Book Reports:

I would like to create some sort of product in response to what we have been doing in Kill The Internet. I think something simple and sweet like a PDF online zine will suffice. I want to make them public on my website and I want them to be curated compilations of KTI's contributions.We will be making a Book Report for How To Do Nothing! And we will also be making them backwards into our previous books. The plan is at the end of book club, I will post a link to a survey and you will be able to submit some words and images from your time reading it. For those who opt in to Book Reports, we'll use your comments and images and ideas and stories to make a cute zine reflecting our time as a community engaging with these texts.That's it.Here's all you need to do:- Participate in book club threads as normal- Take a picture of where you're reading your book- Take a picture of a page of your book (highlighted, commented on, dog eared, fav page)- Take a picture of something in your life that reminds you of the book.That's it.If you want to be included / submit for these Book Reports, just say so in the survey and you're in.If you don't, we might contact u bc you all say wonderful things. But if you dont wanna be listed it's not necessary. I just like the idea of making some sort of immortalized fruit out of all of your beautiful attention.The plan is to "start" with a Book Report for How To Do Nothing. But I also plan to make them backwards, out of previous book club threads. I would like to make them available on my website. I think it'd be very sweet to sign names in the back like a yearbook.So that's what we will do. We will also slowly rollout some surveys for previous books, and try to build out Kill The Internet into some cohesive body of work that can be referenced. I've been so touched and honoured to see everyone's love and care conglomerating around these weird niche watering holes. Alright. Get tha book. Do tha thing. Thanks for everything.
