        Thats a good one haha.

        I think part of it is that we do know that we are idiots compared to genius scientists and hell a lot of 14 year olds now are way smarter than me. I really dont have any specific skills anyone else can’t do (people doing 3d cad and printing and shit just in their free time, thats a genius right there to me, or any coding). I think when we find those people who are actually unintelligent but think they are super smart becuase they watched a Facebook video on politics that our brain kind of implodes at the lack of self awareness.

      Any text based platform is not going to be representative. Many people don’t read well, and don’t have the ability to communicate well in writing.

        That extra sucks becuase i love shit like the smolweb and gemini protocol but people will never understand it because its not shiny and flashy.

        That is disappointing for me. I suck at talking, and often forget the finer details of a verbal discussion.
