Everyone should be a lifelong learner.

We stagnate when we're okay with the status quo. But by spotting areas for improvement, we can thrive and live a life worth living.

🧵 My top five reasons to keep learning.

Learning doesn't stop when you leave school.

If you want to thrive in life, you should always be learning. Once you embrace learning as a part of your life, the world will become a playground full of possibilities.

Five reasons everyone should be a lifelong learner:
Reason 1: Learning is fun

Learning allows adults to be playful like kids. Following our curiosity and learning something new, we get little hits of dopamine — the neurotransmitter associated with rewards.
Learning is natural, but it gets shrouded in seriousness the older we get.

Make learning fun to keep it sustainable.
Reason 2: Learning creates possibilities

Most modern jobs rely on specialized knowledge, but that knowledge is changing fast. Companies look for people who can learn new skills quickly.

If you can proof you can learn something, you'll have a job.
Reason 3: Learning clarifies thinking

Everyone has blindspots. Until you expose yourself to new ideas, you won't know if your current ideas hold up to scrutiny.

Learning allows you to discover unconventional secrets and increase your resolution of reality.
Reason 4: Learning changes reality

Seeing reality sharper changes your perspective. Through learning, you become increasingly open to other people and their ideas.
When you keep learning you'll see how everything is connected and that absolute knowing is impossible.

By understanding reality better, the world becomes a place of possibility.
Reason 5: Learning is human

All animals learn in some way, but only us humans can decide to learn. You can influence your fate and live a life worth living. Even if your current situation looks glum, you can learn to change it.

I’ll address every nonsense argument and lie used to defend the suicidal gender ideology Thats in vogue today:

3:45 - “So what if you don’t have gametes?”

It’s called a birth defect. You’re still male or female.


~5:00 *nonsense trying to say the sexes of seahorses could be swapped coz male carry the eggs*

male doesn’t produce eggs, he produces the sperm. He’s still the male. If I impregnated a chick then carried the amniotic sac in a backpack ‘til the baby was done I’ll still be male🤦‍♂️

5:10 - we could say there’s 4 sexes of fruit fly cause there’s 3 producers of different sized sperm

No. They’re still producing sperm. They’re males. This is idiotic. Is this whole video like this? (Probably. 99% likely. Abandon hope.)

~6:10 - hermaphroditism and sequential hermaphroditism exists therefore....

No. Some animals being hermaphrodites, which is meaningless w/o the existence of binary sex to contrast it to, still doesn’t make gender ideology or transgenderism valid.

Intersex ≠ transgenderism 🙄

6:20 - bilateral gynandromorphism is a disorder in some species (not in humans). Has nothing to do w/ “gender” or transgenderism.

Ova-testes in humans are also a disorder, usually found in those w/ the karyotype disorders that you ppl also try to appropriate (extra X’s/Y’s).
I've seen many news articles cite that "the UK variant could be the dominant strain by March". This is emphasized by @CDCDirector.

While this will likely to be the case, this should not be an automatic cause for concern. Cases could still remain contained.

Here's how: 🧵

One of @CDCgov's own models has tracked the true decline in cases quite accurately thus far.

Their projection shows that the B.1.1.7 variant will become the dominant variant in March. But interestingly... there's no fourth wave. Cases simply level out:

Just because a variant becomes the dominant strain does not automatically mean we will see a repeat of Fall 2020.

Let's look at UK and South Africa, where cases have been falling for the past month, in unison with the US (albeit with tougher restrictions):


Furthermore, the claim that the "variant is doubling every 10 days" is false. It's the *proportion of the variant* that is doubling every 10 days.

If overall prevalence drops during the studied time period, the true doubling time of the variant is actually much longer 10 days.

Simple example:

Day 0: 10 variant / 100 cases -> 10% variant
Day 10: 15 variant / 75 cases -> 20% variant
Day 20: 20 variant / 50 cases -> 40% variant

1) Proportion of variant doubles every 10 days
2) Doubling time of variant is actually 20 days
3) Total cases still drop by 50%
