wow, you are the first stranger to write a textwall to me

ahnaf is it worth reading all those books

we need to be deconstructing our identities

i did until you asked which kind of gave it away

the only things i have read are just excerpts and 1 dialogue by plato fully and mcluhan's medium is the massage but it cannot be considered a book

i sat down to eat my peasant dinner but i thought it was a song you sent so i didn’t watch it then

and the fake qualifier

i was tempted to lie about my name

yeah

magnetises a pin

ahnaf abrar

in a way what we are really interested in with pedagogy is the magnetisation

The old failed actor genuinely believed this girl was of a lesser race. He believed she shouldn't be talking with me, shouldn't be here at this party, shouldn't be here in this country. He wanted a white England. I didn't really challenge him on it. Sometimes I justify it with thoughts like I was drunk, or baffled, or it isn't an argument I'll win, or he can't hear me anyway, or whatever. I didn't argue with him. I just cut off his rant and left with a pathetic "In a bit."

Thank you, Jack

not their contents

or never left

as in

we can only engage in such a way

like people can read 100 books and still not have the fire within them

...

i understand

all that is to say

there is a distinction between western-modern pedagogical systems that's like text-based as in a legal method but there is an idea of "pathshala" or "guru shissho"/ "porompora" i mean how masters relayed knowledge to the student by (oral) transmission often by memorising books. so what was taught was always interactive. knowledge was interactive, you spoke with people rather than read texts.

you cannot feed someone truth

its performative

It Will Get Lighter

to work in time to get to the timeless, perfection thru chaos

okay im going very rogue and very inarticulate

so at the end
