I don’t wear a mask because of my political views. I don’t wear a mask because someone leered at me when I didn’t. I don’t wear a mask because the government told me to. I do it because it helps slow the spread of the virus. And that’s good for many human and economic reasons.

Nuclear Energy is the most misunderstood and missed opportunity in fighting climate change. A clear triumph of ignorance and fear over science and progress. I’m also sure I will get tons of ire and “what about Chernobyl and Fukushima’s...” for saying so. Which will be ironic.

Yes. Exams prove you know how to do something. They don’t prove whether you know what to do. The endless cycle of questions, experiments, and failure are life’s best teachers of discovery.
You cannot get educated by this self-propagating system in which people study to pass exams, and teach others to pass exams, but nobody knows anything.
You learn something by doing it yourself, by asking questions, by thinking, and by experimenting. 🧠

Folks, let’s be clear about something: it has been overwhelmingly disproved that there is an connection between autism and vaccinating. Stop listening to celebrities and listen to science. As for measles, it has been categorically proven it kills and maims, but is 100% avoidable.
