If u awake u a fake

i think a big part of expanding your intellectual curiosity and trying to learn new things about the world is to abandon the shame of not knowing things. don't blame "the US school system" (which US school system????), don't blame your teachers, don't blame society, but embrace the fact that you are going to be learning new things constantly, throughout your life. practice saying "i really need to read about that" or "does anyone know of any good sources to learn about xyz?" or "hold on i gotta go check wikipedia/a world map/the dictionary/the news." every single day, there will be something you don't know already. that something doesn't have to be embarrassing. instead it can be an opportunity to learn something new

shame makes you shut down, and dig in your heels, and refuse to engage. curiosity takes practice, it takes conscious effort, and it takes patience. including patience with yourself

bonkers how we treat people who have Something Wrong With Them given that our society is a machine where you put a child in one end and out the other end comes an adult with Something Wrong With Them

theyre gonna extract the iron out of my blood to make a sword but its gonna be so little iron it will barely be a dagger and everyone will laugh at the small dagger they made out of my body

"there is no way you're not using chatgpt for at least a few things here and there no matter your stance on it" what the FUCK are you talking about

Everything is embarrassing if you live your life through the eyes of others btw
