Dearest Being,
Welcome to the Nothing Serious Substack,
An extension of its cosmos and a space for its Beings to interact.
Subscribe here for direct transmissions and the chance to engage in an ever-updating conversation on art, humour, meaning and more.
If you cannot afford the subscription fee, you need only say, and you will receive access to the Nothing Serious Cosmos for free.
The value placed on creations here embodies nothing but the way in which we strive to make more.
Money will never act as a barrier for those who wish to absorb the ideas of Nothing Serious.
Unlock a new way of looking closer, laughing harder, thinking deeper.
The Manifesto:
The Transmission Schedule:
Monday: The Idea of the Week.
Wednesday: New Nothing Serious idea. Homegrown.
Saturday: Insight into Forming Published Ideas.
Sunday: Question sent into the Nothing Serious Conversation.
The Idea of the Week:
A new idea shared every week. Films, albums, poems, books, jokes, quotes, questions, furniture, art — These ideas can take any imagined form. Some will be homegrown by Nothing Serious, others will be sourced from a variety of artists; the old greats and the new. Examples include:
The aim with the Idea of the Week is to cultivate a space for deeper thinking about the art we absorb. It is a space where Beings are constantly encouraged to seek their own way into ideas that may challenge their established taste. To learn more, absorb the words below:
NS Substack vs. NS Website
Substack:
Think of the NS Substack as the admin centre for Nothing Serious. A space dedicated to its Beings. Here, new ideas added to the website are transmitted as easy-to-absorb notifications that can be shared, interacted with, and saved for later review.
Substack also offers NS Beings the chance to financially support Nothing Serious, with insights into forming ideas being released as Paid Posts.
Website:
The www.nothingseriouswebsite.com remains at the heart of this cosmos; a trunk from which all creative branches stem; ideas, books, films, artwork.
This is a customisable space for the multi-media of Published Ideas to exist in their final form.
Subscribing for free to the Nothing Serious Substack grants you access to the website, as a monthly password is sent directly into your inbox.
Why the password?
The aim is for every Being to feel as though they are a part of Nothing Serious, and that they are entering into their own creative community, as opposed to some empty online void.
Nothing Serious will never demand your attention, and therefore, hopefully, earn it. This is not a question of exclusivity, but rather, one of community.
Beings vs. Higher Beings
Beings are any heart, soul, or mind that engages with Nothing Serious, be that through collaboration or absorption. You become an NS Being by subscribing to the Substack for free and receiving a monthly access code to www.nothingseriouswebsite.com
If you elect to become a Higher Being with a Paid Subscription, you will have access to:
The entire Nothing Serious Archive; a storage space for past ideas that have cycled off the website.
The Nothing Serious Conversation; a group chat designed to mine for meaning, where Beings can interact with one another and provide contributions to future ideas.
Note: All ideas are free to those who request. As stated earlier, value placed on NS ideas embodies nothing but a means to improve the cosmos for its Beings.
Virtual Housekeeping:
If necessary, move the first Substack email from your Spam Folder or Promotions Tab to your Primary Inbox. If you download the Substack app for free, there is an option in settings where you can choose to receive new ideas as push notifications, rather than emails.

For more direct access, download the Nothing Serious Website as an application to your phone’s home screen. To do this, follow these simple steps:
