Honestly you’d have a great time at EA in the Lakes and should come to the next one I run. More generally, you want to get yourself into an EA group space of people who make donations (of money and/​or time) to EA infrastructure, rather than being in receipt of resources from EA infrastructure. The vibe is totally different: the questions are freer, and we help each other clarify the answers to being more truthful and more loving and more actionable because we all want our donations to be used well.
I am pretty happy with my EA circles, for what it’s worth. I have come here to say somethings about this place and to some extent about the powerful organisation that runs it.
But I’d hear more about your EA in the Lakes thing. Which lakes?
