#1253: The Terrible Curse Of The Mitochondria

The post argues that conventional school education feels narrow and even betrays students by focusing on rote facts—like “mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell”—while neglecting a wide, interconnected curriculum that ties personal interests to real knowledge. The author believes true learning should be expansive, allowing students to explore topics such as gold panning, astrophysics, or astrobiology in a way that feels meaningful and heart‑touching rather than memorized; they also claim that grades and teachers are poor measures of intellect. In short, the piece urges readers to take charge of their own learning, read nonfiction, and pursue self‑education so they can grow into great beings.

#1252: Welcome To Planet Earth - A Word Of Caution

A heartfelt note of encouragement and optimism for the reader is followed by a reflective overview of humanity’s current state—its age, its reliance on money, education, and technology—and how these systems create layers of poverty and stratification that are largely invisible yet profoundly shaping our lives. The author laments that while the world remains beautiful, our species is still preoccupied with wrong paths and aims, leading to pollution, climate change, war, and corruption. He urges the reader to hear the truth early so they can rise above the liars, become a philosopher, and help others do likewise, believing that only a generation of great minds—not just one leader—can overcome these divisions and bring true progress.

#1250: Fitness Advice For The Rest Of Us; The Beautiful, Magnificent, And Deeply Intellectual Fhatty Fhattertons

The post explains how to use music with the right beats‑per‑minute (BPM) as a cue for lifting and cardio, adjusting tempos on a computer when needed, and progressively increasing both workout BPM and activity intervals while shortening rest periods until rests are no longer necessary. It stresses daily work‑outs but also the importance of recovery days if pain persists, and suggests practical measures such as thick socks or larger shoes to warm feet, a neoprene belt for back warmth, and simple “baby” movements to keep muscles active during sessions. Finally it reminds readers to replenish electrolytes through sweat, monitor added salt intake with blood‑pressure checks, and consult their doctors about hydration and recovery, all while keeping the routine consistent and adaptable.

#1249: The High School Conspiracy; Or, Don’t Let Teachers Trick You Into Thinking That You Are Dumb

The post argues that true education is self‑directed and paced around personal curiosity, contrasting it with the rigid, memorization‑driven school system that relies on grades, teacher ego, and institutional profit; it claims schools use curricula, GPA manipulation, and “fake” learning to keep students obedient and employable while leaving them ill‑prepared for real life, so the author urges early self‑education in programming and reading powerful books, combined with outdoor adventures, to build genuine knowledge and independence.

·

#1248: Towards Real Education; Or, A School Is Not A Factory

The post argues that effective education is best achieved through self‑directed, self‑paced learning that follows each student’s unique curiosities rather than the rigid, forced curriculum of most schools; it claims that memorization and imposed subjects create a cruel, superficial experience that leaves students feeling unintelligent and dependent on teachers who sell results for paychecks. It praises inspiring teachers—“science popularizers” or artists—that integrate knowledge into students’ existing understanding, and stresses that true learning creates new abilities and a solid foundation for further study. The author also notes the financial burden of education, suggesting that universal income cards would eliminate poverty and allow students to learn without debt, but still believes that classroom design and curriculum reform are necessary to make schools humane and effective.

#1247: Clarity Of Thought, And The Ancient Quest For Knowledge

The post contends that universal, self‑directed education lifts everyone above hierarchical distinctions, eliminates poverty, and brings lasting unity and peace.

·

#1246: Intellectual Inheritance And Independence

Books are the true inheritance of humanity; libraries and great writers give us understanding and growth. The post laments fake education, indoctrination, and fantasy—spiritual mediums, healers, or the military’s relentless youth mobilization—as weakening our grasp on reality and opening doors to manipulation, war, and nuclear catastrophe. It calls for profound, effective schooling that unites people beyond religion, stops repeating mistakes, and ensures a world where educated hands bring peace without borders.

·

#1245: Standardized Anything Is Standardized Nothing

After noting world leaders’ preoccupation with UFOs and the failure of conventional schooling, the author argues that true learning comes from independent study—starting in libraries with narrated books—and from ceasing rote memorization to embrace genuine discovery. He claims great thinkers followed this path, using programming as a self‑guiding tool, and that success will only arrive when one turns personal calling into art and inherits inner wisdom.

·

#1244: Beginning Fitness; It Is Easy, Because Fitness Is Your Friend

The author explains how simple daily walks—especially in nature—can kickstart fitness before moving on to jogging or structured training such as Couch‑to‑5K, and stresses that walking is the easiest way to build endurance while keeping blisters at bay‑level. He pairs this with light music or philosophy books to make the activity enjoyable, and notes that a good pair of outdoor shoes and roomy socks are key. The piece also links sugar’s role as a quick energy source (and its over‑use in processed foods) to walking’s steady burn, while encouraging independent programming as a flexible career path that lets one avoid long commutes or rigid office schedules so more time can be devoted to fitness. Overall, the post blends practical walking tips, simple nutrition cues, and work‑life balance ideas into a single paragraph guide for staying active.

#1243: Outlive Yourself; Or, The Skinny, On Where Fitness Fits

Regular exercise builds endurance, boosts health and can extend life by decades, whereas a sedentary lifestyle leads to illness, early death, and a cycle of overwork, overeating, and sadness.

·

#1242: Weird Dancing; Or, Music Energy For Fitness

The post argues that an effective workout is one driven by rhythm and music—each beat acting as a timer and trainer—to keep muscles engaged like in a “dumbbell dance.” By matching song BPM to your ability level, gradually increasing dance duration while shortening rest intervals (much like a Couch-to-5K jogger plan), you build endurance. Continuous motion with minimal pauses, avoiding distractions such as water breaks or idle chatter, ensures the gym’s energy stays high; interval timers and tempo‑adjusting programs help scale difficulty over time. As we age, this rhythmic, music‑guided training keeps our bodies in shape and extends longevity.

#1241: Your Intellectual Inheritance; Or, How Wisdom Cradles And You Just Kind Of Use It By Subtle Analogy

As you venture into a library searching for an interesting narrated book, its cover and title may hint at what awaits but not fully reveal the wisdom it contains; a good story can deepen understanding, evoke emotions, and connect you to characters whose joys, tragedies, and memories become your own inheritance of profound insights into humanity. By grasping these narratives you’ll unravel truths, lift old curses, reconstruct legends, and correct histories—each tale adding to your comprehension of the human condition and enabling you to interpret ancient myths as if they were freshly spoken. In this way narrated books become tools that enrich thinking, sharpen comprehension, and pass on wisdom from one generation to the next.

·

#1240: Thinking Creatures

The post contends that reality is either something or nothing—if it were only nothing there would be no questions at all—and then describes the universe as a vast particle soup, where radiation and matter coalesce into stars, dust, planets, and eventually life through simple evolutionary steps. It traces humanity’s lineage from those first “burps” of consciousness to modern societies, stressing that our knowledge is passed down by books and collective wisdom, and that each individual mind functions like an operating system that must be upgraded with learning and experience; in this way we become the independent agents who can further beautify the universe.

·

#1239: A Glance At What Keeps Humanity Divided

The post reflects on how our beliefs are shaped by the circumstances of our birth and later influences, urging careful attention to this process. It champions the library as a source of transformative non‑fiction that intellectuals cherish for its truth and authenticity, and argues that an authentic foundation and continuous curiosity are essential for the human mind to flourish beyond its basic physical roots. The author sees indoctrination—whether by religion or chance—as a prison that divides us and stalls progress, but believes that if education is made inspiring, student‑driven, and realistic then we can repair schools, unlock our curiosities, and ultimately create a better world of wisdom, security, and peace.

#1238: Despite What You Are Told, Cats Would Successfully Run The World

The post envisions cats as politically savvy beings who will bring world peace, balance humans with nature, revamp schools into quest‑based learning, emphasize narration and naps for rest, and naturally steer politics toward greatness.

·

#1237: The Really Real Truth About Great Adventure

The author celebrates the Appalachian Trail as an essential life journey—far more valuable than school diplomas or career promotions—and invites readers to hike it in groups, emphasizing teamwork, resilience, and shared exploration. He argues that the trail’s lessons mirror those found in great books written by clear‑thinking thinkers, and that both together shape our intellectual inheritance. By stepping off familiar paths and listening to guides like Dixie, we can break free of cultural indoctrination, unite worldwide families, and find the direction toward wisdom and greatness.

·

#1236: Growing Stronger; Or, Real Education Is Not Just About Learning For Real

Real education is about growing into a well‑integrated being—a mind full of content, authenticity, and earned wisdom—rather than merely repeating copied ideas or campaign slogans. It requires true comprehension, not just the use of buzzwords like “indoctrination.” The essence lies in dense, compressible knowledge that shapes character and fuels lifelong excellence; when mastered, it leads to a life well lived, stories worth sharing, and a lasting legacy of wisdom.

·

#1235: Answers Are Found In The Quest For Greatness, Not In The Search For Meaning

The author reflects on how victors rewrite history and how historians often pave those roads with good intentions, then explains that asking for meaning is like driving meaning into something and that learning from non‑fiction books helps solve contradictions and build oneself independently; he shares personal anecdotes—from school bullying to learning computers and philosophy—to illustrate this process, and describes how college loans, grade manipulation and politicians chasing UFO tech reflect the same indoctrination; he even cites the moon landing as a convenient military technology boost, and ends by stating that war is illegitimate yet tolerated, urging readers to use books for intellectual inheritance and self‑growth.

·

#1234: Self Education And Life Changing Narrated Non-Fiction Books At The Library

The post argues that contemporary schooling relies mainly on memorization and standardized testing rather than true learning, causing students to forget concepts once the exam ends; this system is perpetuated by powerful figures who favor easy-to-teach content over real knowledge, and poverty further hampers students’ ability to absorb information. The author claims that genuine education occurs when learners engage directly with ideas—through listening to high‑quality books on a portable device, exploring nature, building small labs, programming animations, or experimenting with simple electronics—and that these experiences let concepts like trigonometry become functional and meaningful. By contrast, the author sees current schools as “babysitters” that fail to nurture real understanding or creativity, and he calls for self‑education that places knowledge in the students’ hearts rather than in their notebooks. He stresses that effective schooling is crucial but currently broken, and that to truly fix education we must also tackle poverty so learners can enjoy the serenity needed for deep learning.

·

#1233: The Betrayal Of Subject Divisions, And Why Real Education Is Replaced With Memorization

The post argues that most school classes are “fake” in the sense that they look educational but mainly serve to generate paychecks and test scores rather than foster real learning. Teachers, it claims, mimic the form of instruction without truly stimulating minds; they push cramming and memorization to keep GPA averages high, while state testing rewards this narrow focus. In contrast, a “real” class should be curiosity‑driven, integrated across fields, and presented as a big question that leads students from one topic naturally into another (for example, learning programming in a useful language rather than abstract math loops). Such classes would use lectures, projects, tutors, and inspirational speakers to let learners self‑direct their exploration; the ultimate point is that memorization alone is not education.

·

#1232: Incurious: When Schools Stand In The Way Of Education

The post argues that today’s school system presents an overly optimistic image while failing to deliver real learning: principals and teachers often treat classrooms as bureaucratic machines rather than creative spaces, rewarding memorization and grade inflation over genuine understanding. The author claims this systemic failure—rooted in greed, corruption, and ignorance—leads students into a cycle of stress, overwork, and mediocre results. To break this cycle, he calls for self‑directed, individualized instruction that mirrors how programmers learn, coupled with broader reforms such as universal income to remove basic survival pressures. In the absence of truly effective teachers, each student must become a teacher for themselves, pursuing lifelong independent study until they can rebuild schools that foster curiosity and real knowledge.

·

#1231: UFO And UAP Total Disclosure; Or, The Tragedy Of Fake Education

The author argues that the fascination with UAP/UFOs is a symptom of a broader failure in our education system—where memorization replaces genuine learning—and that this intellectual emptiness feeds an “idiocracy” ruled by uneducated leaders who profit from holiday‑driven marketing, algorithmic content curation and religious cycles. They claim that without authentic, fact‑based schooling the world will revert to past mistakes, anti‑science movements, and wars, while AI and business interests shape our opinions. In short, the post calls for a return to library‑based, experiential learning as the antidote to this cultural decline.

·

#1230: The Great Weight-loss Adventure

The post encourages using rhythmic movement as the core of a workout, urging dancers to maintain an uninterrupted flow by employing interval timers and avoiding breaks or distractions; it stresses that energy comes from a steady drumbeat and that continuous motion will strengthen muscles and turn training into art. It then proposes an adventurous “revolutionary” plan: prepare for camping and long hikes by gathering gear, unplugging kitchen appliances with a knife, roasting sausages over fire, and taking protective measures (wire roasting sticks, duct tape pants, bug repellent, eye protection, gloves) to keep safe from bears, mosquitoes, and knives. Finally it reminds readers that the effort will be lifelong but ultimately healthy, urging them to rise, rebel, and embrace adventure regardless of career or other concerns.
