Lately I keep thinking our biggest problem is that we confuse intelligence with loudness and arrogance, when really it's the opposite.

Intelligence is humility. It's listening and paying attention. It's understanding there's stuff you don't know or understand.

Fuck the Smartest Man in the Room.

@charliejane ignorance is effortless. We’re surrounded by uncertainty and with it fear. It’s readily available, simple and easy to exploit. Assumptions shout loudly, prejudice silences questions. Understanding and knowing with confidence and certainty is difficult challenging work that is never complete
