Typography animation

I watched this twice. The second time, it set off several minutes of uncontrolled laughing. Now my ribs hurt. I don't dare watch it a third time.

We've Been Wrong About Everything

[ This was a referral from Unholy Rouleur, but through the miracle of Instapaper, I'm a month late. ]

My new hero, Chief (not chef, really Chief) Mario Vittone: We've Been Wrong About Everything.

Thinking about this post, I wanted to say that this video is important but couldn't figure out how to do that without sounding like a prick. Well, the Rouleur has no such worries, so I'll just blurb what he said:
It's Chief Vittone's discussion on how we got everything wrong. He's talking about Coast Guard training at the end, but his broader points deal with theories of knowledge; how we "know" things and why we're very frequently wrong. It may well be the most important thing you read or listen to this summer. If you're actually listening to him, it should change how you think, for the better.
Seriously. No fooling.

One One One One One, One Two One Two

Today's best thing is a line from a Tribe Called Quest song...

"Sometimes I have to cuss just to prove my damn point."
