Edward Kelley was the first article I edited on wikipedia in 2003 (I've been on wikipedia for a bit) . My great great grand aunt was reputedly a powerful witch. She got swindled in a land deal and made the land in question fallow. Apparently to this day nothing grows on it.
My own experiences for a large part I will only talk about in general terms, allusively or both. I do supplemental introductions later. Here are a few more hashtags:

Hey @caveman! Sounds like you met a robot from future, so cool! 😱Try using EMP (electromagnetic pulse) to disable it. Good luck with your tribe!🤖⚡️

These videos always helps me appreciate the efforts and ingenuity that our ancestors used to get to where they were.
Some of the videos made by John Plant (his channel on youtube is called "Primitive Technology", references at the end of the post) make me appreciate the power of time. As in - often simpler solutions to a problem exist if we accept very slow solutions.
For example: spreading butter on a bread (if you just took the butter out of the refrigerator) can be made easier by either slicing the butter stick/brick very thinly (complicated solution) or by chopping the piece of butter you'll need in advance, and letting it sit for some time at room temperature (using time).
Similarly, when trying to build software for myself, I often find that a good antidote against over-engineering is using a simple, half-baked solution for a while. This brings to my attention a bunch of contextual information, and usually leads to me discarding a truckload of features which before seemed crucial.
Another example: many recipes are not complicated, but take patience (letting something rest for a day, or days!)...
Anyway, just sharing a bit the liberating power of time. Slow is not necessarily bad.

The most relaxing channel on Youtube #primitivetechnology has a new one out.
Primitive Technology: Refining Clay by Sedimentation and Making Pots

PT's resumed making videos, a. Piped is superior to Invidious in that captions work, which are IMO essential for this channel (descriptions of what's being done, and why.)
I am not just amazed by #JohnPlant's skill on his #PrimitiveTechnology videos, but also how he is taking the time to reply to the various comments in his main thread there, and the level of politeness he uses.
His latest video shows how he's made a sort of cast-iron knife out of iron oxide bacteria
