Homo Neophilus meme trading for the intellectually curious… “We want to recruit you because you’re so gullible. That is, gullible in the right way. You’re skeptical about conventional wisdom, but attracted to unorthodox ideas…All humans are irrational, but there are two different kinds of irrationality-- those who love old ideas and hate and fear new ones, and those who despise old ideas and joyfully embrace new ones…They are all in one piece, so to speak…They are fully aware…And conscious w …
Do you have something to share, but can’t quite put your finger on it? Sometimes it can feel like our lives are a series of disconnected events.
