Notes From the New World Sustainable Creativity, Doing the Bare Minimum, The Beauty in Subtraction & Taking Unseriousness Very Seriously with Poster Journal
Your favorite creator is BACK - PJ aka Poster Journal returns to spill the tea on why they nuked their entire YouTube channel (listen to Part 1 from last year for the lore), how they went from snark machine to reformed human who actually cares about kindness, and what it's like being creatively pregnant.
We dive deep into sustainable creativity, the exhaustion of being perpetually anti-everything, and why your bare minimum might be your secret weapon. Plus: we find PJ's birth chart (he's a Projector!), discuss why I want to hire him as my life coach, and he presents the radical idea that being unserious is actually the highest form of spirituality.
Some snippets from the convo:
- "I don't want to be anybody's guru... I'm nobody's teacher."
- "The trick is to take being unserious very seriously."
- "I make what I wish existed and I share it with the world. Simplicity is my strength."
- "Your bare minimum is a lot better than you probably think."
- "You're a tree, and you're going to keep changing and getting stronger. But you just need to put out fruit."
