Caught in the Current, Not the Label
Don’t get it twisted – I’m not ‘woke’, I’m current. This is about the buzz of staying updated, not about wearing a badge of coolness. People who dig into the latest in science and tech often get slapped with the ‘woke’ label, as if curiosity is a crime. Newsflash: I’m not living in a rewind loop of the “good old days.”
Curiosity Didn’t Just Fascinate the Cat
Why do I chase after new info like a cat after a laser pointer? Simple. It’s fascinating. Staying stuck in outdated ideas? No thanks. The universe is an ever-changing puzzle, and guess what? We don’t have all the pieces figured out yet.
Adrenaline-Fueled Learning
Fear of the unknown? Yep, I feel it. But it’s like a rollercoaster – scary yet exhilarating. It propels me to learn more, not less.
My AI Allies in Information
Flooded with ads and gloomy news? Not me. I’ve got AI in my corner, finding what I need, complete with references and all. It’s like having a super-smart buddy who gets me and the way I learn.
Consulting the AI Council
I don’t just chat with one AI – I’ve got a whole council. GPT’s my go-to for now, robust and reliable. But let’s get one thing straight: AI isn’t my teacher or a deity. It’s more like a magic book with all the answers.
15 Minutes of Fascination
Take a daily 15-minute dive into something that tickles your brain. Lost civilizations, weird science, whatever floats your boat. This isn’t about being a know-it-all; it’s about riding the wave of the info boom. Enjoy the surf!
Curiosity Without Shame
Don’t know something? Cool, join the club. Find what resonates with you, and let’s ditch the shame game. Everyone’s got their own knowledge journey.
Building the Curiosity Muscle
Curiosity’s like a muscle – use it, and it gets stronger. Being curious is a superpower we can all develop, no matter our age.
Seeing Through an Autistic Lens
Autism throws me some curveballs, especially in how I communicate. People might misjudge my intelligence, but that’s their problem, not mine. I see people getting judged for being ‘in the know.’ Let’s flip that script.
A Feast of Discovery
What we learn and discover should be shared, not hoarded. Let’s feed each other’s curiosity and grow together.
