Love to see this! Experts are not the be all end all

Rewatching The Big Short. It begins with a Mark Twain quote, "It ain't what you don't know that gets you into trouble. It's what you know for sure that just ain't so."

I did not enjoy this book when I read it

Sweet

Wow! Awesome that you once shared my interest!! And thank you for the repost as I am still looking for a job!

What is the Extended European Habitat?

Bluebird by Charles Bukowski there's a bluebird in my heart that wants to get out but I'm too tough for him, I say, stay in there, I'm not going to let anybody see you. there's a bluebird in my heart that wants to get out but I pour whiskey on him and inhale cigarette smoke and the whores and the bartenders and the grocery clerks never know that he's in there. there's a bluebird in my heart that wants to get out but I'm too tough for him, I say, stay down, do you want to mess me up? you want to screw up the works? you want to blow my book sales in Europe? there's a bluebird in my heart that wants to get out but I'm too clever, I only let him out at night sometimes when everybody's asleep. I say, I know that you're there, so don't be sad. then I put him back, but he's singing a little in there, I haven't quite let him die and we sleep together like that with our secret pact and it's nice enough to make a man weep, but I don't weep, do you?

I miss when this was gibberish

It’s surprising what any of us believe. From my view, the idea of religion or any formal belief system has been belittled and destroyed without much to replace it. Then we attach ourselves to some ideology we didn’t know we were being preached. Sometimes I feel more aware that what I believe isn’t well understood or I don’t know how to communicate it. I’m having a tough time building a belief system. It takes care and consistency that I’m only still learning to give. Oh more to what you were saying. I am somewhat tuned into Rogan or the content people might associate with the Rogan sphere. Some of what I hear makes sense, or offers an alternative explanation for things that is intriguing because it goes against popular beliefs. Many of those popular beliefs are held by systems I’ve learned not to hold confidence in. But then I think well that’s interesting but I’m not sure I can fully attach myself to that belief for whatever reason (lack of my own research, conflicting information, conflicting beliefs, etc.) Then that happens several times a day. Then I think oh this is too much information and I am increasingly detached from feeling like I understand much of anything. These are my tangentially related thoughts from the toilet tonight as I am trying to figure life out. I hope I laugh at them later but for now I am proud to have spoken my mind.
