you need to be slow maxxing. you need to be reading long, fat books. you need to be making 48 chocolate chip cookies. you need to spend hours watching wildlife. you need to spend 15 mins making coffee. you need to breathe in and out. you need to be slowwwwwww

    I find 3d printing to be my slow hobby. Oddly relaxing to set something up, hit go, and come back several hours later to a completed piece. Very mesmerizing to watch, too.

      I got a Bambu printer this year (upgrade from an Ender3) and now my experience is kind of the opposite lol. I don’t have to wait overnight to iterate designs, I can just print something in an hour and a half and test it, then print another in another couple hours…

      allows me to get tasks/projects done in a day or two instead of a week. and because it prints so quickly, I tend to stay busy during printing (so I’m ready to continue when it is complete) instead of fucking off to relax like I would during an eight hour print.
