Dealmakers
1. People who respect different working rhythms. A community that gets that contribution isn't measured in hours logged, and that someone building automation or systems at 2am is pulling their weight just as much as someone in the garden at dawn. If people genuinely value what I build, I'll compromise on a lot of the day-to-day stuff. 2. Real openness to building things together. I want people who want to make stuff, ventures, tools, systems, a smarter way to run the place. Co-creators, not just co-habitants. A community with that builder energy and the willingness to put agreements in writing is worth bending on almost anything else for. 3. Genuine mutual respect for how people think and believe. Nobody proselytizing, nobody making you the odd one out. Everyone free to hold their own practice and worldview without it being a thing. If that culture is real, most other differences get easy. 4. A place that's actually good for raising my son. Trusted adults around him, a safe environment, other people who care about kids' wellbeing without trying to take over the parenting. A community that's a genuine village for a kid would make me overlook a lot. 5. Tech-forward and automation-friendly. People who see technology and good infrastructure as an asset, not something to be suspicious of. Reliable connectivity, room to run my own gear, and a culture that's happy to let me automate the tedious parts of communal life. That alone would carry a lot of weight with me.
Dealbreakers
1. My son's safety is non-negotiable. The environment has to be genuinely safe for a child, physically and emotionally. Trusted adults in his life are welcome once they've earned it, but anything that endangers kids or any blurred boundaries with minors ends the conversation immediately. 2. Everything financial gets written down. Co-ownership, shared property, joint ventures, money in any form. Clear splits, clear agreements, clean exit terms before anyone commits. I've lived the vague-handshake version and I won't do it again. No exceptions on this. 3. No coercion, religious or ideological. I keep my own spiritual practice to myself and I expect the same respect back. A community with a monoculture that makes you the heretic for thinking differently is a hard no. Mutual tolerance or nothing. 4. My autonomy and working rhythm have to be respected. I work differently and that's not up for negotiation. A setup that expects everyone on the same 9-to-5 clock doing repetitive labor doesn't work for me and never will. I contribute through what I build, not through hours logged. 5. No coercion or control over people, period. Harassment, stalking, ignoring someone's no, using fear or pressure to get your way. I understand persuasion deeply, which is exactly why I draw a hard line between influence and coercion.
