Ignorance & Censorship | Philosophy Tube 

the owl's name was Simba and he was a sweetie!

"Three of my previous girlfriends turned out to be lesbians and I still didn't realise I was trans" As a lesbian who was strangely attracted to Abby even before her coming out and transition, this is hilarious

"it translates to '3 of my past girlfriends turned out to be lesbians and i didn't know i was trans'" i am DYING

Can we just take a moment to acknowledge that she got *the* two stereotypically useless degrees (philosophy & theatre) and is absolutely CRUSHING IT WITH BOTH OF THEM!?

As someone that needs subtitles, I would like to thank you for yours. Nobody seems to think that deaf folks like to laugh.

>saying three >putting up four fingers >listing two things >calling them 1) and b) brilliant

the fact that since she came out as trans she is beautifully smiling in every single thumbnail makes me really happy

The good thing about Athena's list of your romantic failures is that you know which ones were failures and which ones weren't

"What kind of death comes from bliss" "la petite mort" "Lung cancer" "oh..."

"three of my ex girlfriends turned out to be lesbians and I still didn't realize I was trans" My neighbours heard me shriek in hysteria.

the story about tobacco companies saying “doubt is our product” reallyyyyyyyy reminds me of how oil companies have convinced consumers that they are the real problem

“years of my life i’ve wasted in ignorance that i can never get back” hit home too hard..

Personal experience here: I live in Italy, where neuronormativity is INCREDIBLY strong. There's loads of metaphysical and epistemological scepticism towards mental health issues, which are still largely taboo; psychologists are seen as some sort of witch doctors, and, until recently, available information was scarce. It wasn't until about 4-5 years ago that I realised I have been suffering from anxiety and occasional depression since I was at least 14. It wasn't until less than a year ago that I had the economic resources to actually go to therapy, and deep-seated issues keep coming up at each and every appointment. I also have a history of feeling inadequate and rejected due to being forgetful, frequently zoning out during conversations, lectures, etc., often speaking out of turn, having a hellish time with deadlines and being very easily distracted. So one day, I read up by chance on inattentive ADHD, and the realisation hit me like a truck. My abysmal university records, my inability of keeping a job that requires deadlines, my extreme forgetfulness... suddenly, everything made sense. Before that, I often thought of ADHD as "being annoying and hyperactive", a perspective given by media and ableist discourse all around me. So many years of my life wasted in misery and self-hatred, and I will never get them back. Had there been more ADHD awareness when I was a child or even a teenager, my life would probably have been a lot more different. I might have learned some life hacks from people with the condition instead of being constantly told I was just lazy, or I might have got professional help. But really, at the end it was liberating, because now I can find out what I need to do in order to make my life less of a living hell and, most of all, I'm not lazy or stupid.

"Three of my previous girlfriends turned out to be lesbians and I still didn't realise I was trans" -- This is a personal attack and I can't stop laughing

Abby you're going to isolate yourself from the trans community by coming out against cat girl manga

"Lesbian Avengers" is probably the coolest name for a progressive activist group ever

I feel you, I spent many years worrying if I was really straight...or if I was actually gay...or what...because I was attracted to more than one gender. Nobody had ever told me that being bisexual was an option.

When I was 14 I was obsessed by another boy in my year but while I had learned that men could be sexually attracted to one another (mainly through homophobic jokes) I had no concept that they could be *romantically* attracted to one another. That fact was entirely absent from the social, cultural or educational information I had access to. All I knew was that I thought about him endlessly and obsessively. He was fascinating. I explained it to myself by reasoning that he was destined to be a great figure from world history like Napoleon or Mozart because that was the only context in which I heard men describe other men as “fascinating”. It took me a few years to figure out I was in a state of unrequited love and that this was a normal experience for most LGBT youth. I wish someone had told me.

Section 28 went beyond the harms you mentioned. It didn't just leave people who really would have benefited from knowing ignorant. Section 28 promoted homophobic bullying in schools. I qualified as a teacher a couple of years after it was repealed. When I got a job, I openly challenged pupils homophobic language and bullying based on sexuality and gender, but teachers warned me that I could get in trouble. I had to point out that the law never prevented tackling bullying only promotion, two very different things, and that the law no longer existed. While most of the staff were obviously distressed by the law, they were still terrified of becoming a victim of it, and it didn't even exist at that point, so I can only imagine it had been much worse when it did.

Similar to the woman's description of learning she had postpartum depression, I had the same reaction to being diagnosed avoidant personality disorder. Many people hear that and their response is to treat me like a victim who needs advice, who needs help out of a situation. People tell me I have to "get over it" when in reality, I get over it every day to do the things I have to do, and to even remain alive. The reality is that the diagnosis is entirely liberating. Far from making me feel victimized, it makes me feel proud of myself for having made it this far at all. It's no longer a personal deficiency, but a combination of physiological things, and in my case, circumstance. I blame myself for everything all the time, but at least now I don't blame myself for blaming myself.

"Three of my previous girlfriends turned out to be lesbians and I still didn't realise I was trans." is, hands down, one of the best lines I've heard!

Absolutely straining my mind to consider what a theater company that’s NOT considered “too gay” would look like.

The moment i realized the owl in the background was real, i was completely hooked. Also the way the romantic failures bit kept popping up every time i almost forgot about them was hilarious

From a young age it was drilled into me, that I could only love one person and that's all. I always thought somethings wrong with me because I loved more than one person. Than I found out about polyamory. And suddenly everything clicked. Living a much more fullfilling life now with a lot less shame and ignorance.

Before Abigail came out i used her as my one tentative connection to heterosexuality and then she came out and I was like “shit, I’ve never liked a man ever in my life”

I love when Abigail says "if you're very clever, you've noticed..." and I did notice it and I spend a few seconds preening "that's me, I'm clever, Abby said I'm clever"

watching my younger sister going through her teens knowing what trans means (and that she isnt broken for being how she is) is such a healing experience for me. I'm there to guide her through the stuff I had to learn the hard way, and seeing her flourish and be confident in herself truly truly makes me happy. ♥ thankyou for the thoughtful video!

I feel terrible for when I was roughly aged 9 and knew a person on a caravan site, who I shall call Daisy. Before being Daisy, she was Richard. I met them as Richard and they were a teenager who I played with despite age differences. Richard became Daisy during the time I had not been to the caravan, and I met Daisy in the 6 weeks holidays. I had no idea what being transgender was like. In fact, I didn't know that it was a thing because I was denied that knowledge-never provided that knowledge. I thought it was a joke that they were calling themselves Daisy and, though my memory is foggy, I remember mocking Daisy for trying to trick me or whatever dumb excuse. I did this in front of people who, at the time, I called my friends. I looked at them for backup and clearly, they knew more than me. The older ones even sided with Daisy (which was good). I've never said sorry to Daisy because I could never speak to Daisy again. I was a dumb child and I thought I was right. I wish I had said sorry, and should I meet her now-I will do more than say sorry; I will beg for forgiveness. I remember telling my parents what happened because I wanted to know that I was in the right. It was awkward on the ride home (from the caravan site) when I brought it up. While I was told I was wrong, I wasn't *told* I was wrong. I wasn't told why I was wrong and I wasn't told about what being transgender is. It was never explained. Watching this video doesn't make me feel better but it opens up my eyes. I can see the problem and I can see how I arrived at the conclusion that Daisy was having me on. I was ignorant. I really enjoy these videos. They make you think. And they have reminded me of the above little story. I love this channel already and I am off to watch more. Sorry to anyone upset by what I've said, it wasn't the intended effect.

As an English major, I can confirm Abigail's math checks out.

Abigail with red hair and dressed as the riddler, is something I never knew I needed

I love that this video implies that not only does Abby have enough romantic failures to fill a book, but enough to fill multiple books, and also that there's enough of them to be accidentally picked out in an entire library.

I love how this episode has that true crime, conspiracy theory, Gravity Falls type atmosphere. I’m out for an evening run alone and i’m getting chills all over listening to this video

I remember when there was just a white wall as background. She's come a long way!

Abby - "I don't really know all that much about owls." *turns to Simba* - No offence. Simba - *casts ruthless shade by turning away*

I keep thinking about how much time in my life I spent trying to figure out what was wrong with me for not having crushes on anyone, until I attended a class in college about the psychoanalysis of asexuality, and honestly, I can relate to that feeling of all finally coming together all too well!

I was 27 when I first built up the courage to defy the society standards I grew up with and go see a therapist to talk about being uncomfortable with my gender. This hits close to home.

Me: *tries to ingest complex philosophical concepts* Also me: Holy sh*t, that's a real f**king owl!

*has three lesbian exes* "Am I the trans? ... no, it's everyone else that is trans."

In regards to hermeneutical injustice, I definitely feel it in terms of my queerness (along with a lot of people in the comments), but where it resonates with me in a major way is in regards to my ADHD. Throughout the entirety of my schooling, I always did well, but I often struggled to get things in on time, fidgeted by drawing in the margins of my books, and seemingly "procrastinated" because I often couldn't seem to make myself focus on things. Every parent-teacher interview of my life was "she's a great student, love having her in class, asks interesting questions, but needs to work on getting assignments submitted on time". The first time I heard the term ADHD and heard it described (by Markiplier, of all places lol) when I was 17 and in my second last year of school, it was a revelation. Oh my god, is there a reason I'm like this? The more I looked into it, the more quizzes and checklists from every source I could find that I did, the more things clicked. When I went to my doctor to ask about it, I was so nervous. To his credit, he took me seriously, but he didn't really know what to do, and after talking to a colleague, the eventual conclusion was "you're a teenager, it's just hormones. If you're struggling talk to the school counselor", never mind the fact that I'm not sure if we even technically had a school counselor. Certainly not ones who had any idea what to do about this. I am now 21, and I started ADHD medication about a month ago, and I have never felt better mentally. Every day, I wonder what I could've done if I had been diagnosed when I first suspected I had ADHD. I wonder, if I had been a boy would I have been diagnosed earlier? If I was more "disruptive", or had had "lower quality" work, would I have been taken seriously? How many breakdowns could've been avoided if I just knew what was happening in my brain and how to handle it? The lack of mental health knowledge and support, especially when it comes to things other than depression, anxiety, and boys with autism, in rural areas is absolutely abysmal. It's especially heinous among doctors and teachers, not because they're any more ignorant than other adults, but because they are the ones who need to know about this stuff the most. Doctors because they're medicals professionals, and teachers because of how mental health issues often first manifest or are most noticeable in schools and during adolescence. I told my teachers I thought I had ADHD and I was trying to manage it, and they tried to help however they could, but the vast majority just didn't know how to handle it. I, and every single student before and after me with mental illnesses, deserve to know about our own brains and have that support.

From one who owns and maintains a library, when she pulled that lighter I felt terror.

Every time Abigail says "If you're very clever" she awakens another sleeper agent

If my philosophy teacher is waiting for me when I die, I'm most certainly not in the good place

"How might my life have been different, if someone had just _told_ me?" Hits like a gut punch

The "realisation of ignorance" prat really hit home for me. Until two years ago I didn't even know that women can have ADHD, and when I learned that, and learned what ADHD *really* is like, then it all came to me in one massive swoop. Now I know, who I am and why I am the way I am. And I finally know that I'm not broken, worse than others or "not right". I am different. It was liberating, and while I still mourn the time and life lost in not knowing, getting to know was the best thing that happened to me my whole life. Better even than getting accepted into a music university in UK, when I was still living in Poland. And while I'm not officially diagnosed or medicated yet (neurodiversity diagnostic in UK sucks almost as bad as trans diagnostic) I am still better off knowing than living in ignorance.

Hey so this is very exciting! I am Jack Rear, the journalist mentioned at 22.45 - I actually had a huge paragraph about Section 28 in my piece and I cut it to fit my word limit, sort of wish I had kept it in now...

Neat little parallel in that she really is talking about cigarettes this time, but the Arsonist's sister is also a great example of doxastic anxiety.

I've played this video in the background about half a dozen times now, and I JUST realized there's a whole-ass, live owl on set.

Just had the “ignorance” conversation with a friend last month. Everyone on earth is ignorant to something 🌈 ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️

"Doxastic anxiety about one's own identity" is a surprisingly insightful way of talking about repression. If all you know about being gay, bi, trans, etc. is "that's bad; people don't like that, whatever it is", anxiety about whether you might be "that" really is a barrier to seeking out information in the first place.

Abigail: ‘...a list of my romantic failures... in alphabetical order.’ My initial reaction: ‘but it should clearly be in *chronological* order, why isn’t it in chronological order?’

"just so long as the debate never stops, and the matter is never settled" This.

You had me really tearing up at the end. Also, I was so jazzed you cited Miranda Fricker at the end! Epistemic Injustice was a foundational concept in my masters thesis. Thank you so much for making these concepts accessible to the wider public! Your ability to break these concepts down pushes me to be a better educator.

As a long time anorexic who failed treatment, the part about taking any excuse to not thinking about it, even if it means death gave me chills.

I remember sitting in language philosophy class listening to my professor talk about how having a name for something can be really powerful, and it hit me then that the "thing wrong with me" that I'd been trying to understand really was clinical depression, and it didn't have to look like my high school health textbook described it for it to be depression. A few years later, I would be reading about bisexuality online in the middle of the night, and realize, "Oh, that's me..." and the feeling of liberation that came with that was incredible.

As someone from a scientific background the concept of ignorance is a rather complex one. Without ignorance there can be no discovery. At the same time ignorance was, and in many cases still is, used to styme scientific discovery. For countless centuries what 'should' be known by the general populous has been controlled and was shaped by selfish, powerful individuals for their own gain. I both cherish ignorance as a means to continue exploring the unknown while also despising it when it is willfully indulged or enforced. The phrase "Ignorance is bliss" has far more layers of complexity than I ever realised when I first heard it and scoffed at it's ridiculous premise.

Wow, another very good episode. So interesting and so relatable. For me, another example of ignorance creating significant forms of discrimination and injustice has to be the ableism present when dealing with neurodivergence, such as ASD/C. This is particularly the case for those with high-functioning autism. Autism is a developmental condition that is most commonly picked up in childhood, but now we are seeing more and more awareness being raised about autism in adults. This is not just because autistic children are growing up to be adults, but because many cases of autism in children were never picked up, and now those people are adults themselves. Many adults with ASD/C end up seeking a diagnosis after coming across societal difficulties - such as issues with the law or employment disciplinary processes. For decades such processes have been based on the concept that perception implies intent, and that behaviour is not only objectively observable but has innate, universal interpretations which mean that you can learn about intentions from behaviour. This meant criminal behaviour means criminal intent, offensive behaviour means offensive intent, and so forth. As we learn more about ASD/C, we are learning the fallacy behind such principles, but the concept of perception equalling intent has been standardised within most of our law enforcement, justice systems, and social structures, which are now disproportionately discriminatory against those who are neurodivergent, to the point of many implicitly breaking Equality Law because of their discrimination. With a diagnosis of ASD/C, we can see people being treated differently, because that can make the difference between deciding whether issues are based on malice or on misunderstanding, based on preconceptions of expected behaviour, responsibility, and intent. What's saddest though has to be looking and seeing just how many people have been affected because of a lack of awareness regarding neurodivergence such as ASD/C. How many people could have had significantly different lives if they had been diagnosed in childhood, and been treated differently - with more tolerance and support - instead of being blamed, punished, and worse because of the preconceptions of others, and this notion that perception means intent. Like the mother realising that they are not to blame for their post-natal depression, children, teens, and adults alike could have avoided being written off as simply bad people, and their lives gone in very different directions. For me, I won't get the decades back following my ASD/C diagnosis. Years of tackling, fighting, and internalising the prejudices and preconceptions of others weren't just erased with a simple do over because of this diagnosis. But being resentful for the ignorance of the past only brings more madness and misery. I can only go forwards with better understanding and awareness of myself and others, and help those around me do likewise. Keep up the good work, Abigail!

Doxastic anxiety "Not much goin on around here, what's behind this door?" -opens door and immediately closes it "Oh, nope, is there a different door around here maybe?"

"Owh that's feckin' geeeey" right at the end just broke me. I'm in pain from this much laughter

Your subtitles are what I'm here for, the fact that you're funny, informative, creative and clearly passionate is just gravy. 🤗

It's easy for me to write off willful ignorance as an "other people" problem but you've got me there on why I'm not vegetarian. I still try to minimize meat eating but I could educate myself on the details at any time and choose not to.

"I just don't know very much about owls" *Athena did not like that and will remember it*

I understand that Abby is going for that "Batman's Riddler" vibe and all... but honestly, my first thought was "Oh no is Abby going to make us re-experience Tumblr's Once-ler"

Pretty much every video by philosophy tube I find myself wishing it wouldn’t end, just the ideas and the thinking and how I feel my whole view of the whole shifting is so addicting. So glad I found this channel ❤

As someone who worked at a library before, the way you put that book back on the shelf at the beginning of the vid... made me die a little inside... Anyways awesome content you're making Abby, I found your channel a few days ago and I became a huge fan... the style of these videos is so amazing and hella authentic, we don't deserve to watch this for free... so much effort

Doxastic anxiety is when I deliberately avoid learning about how much studying I have to do for a test for the longest possible period of time to avoid getting a mental breakdown for the longest possible period of time also because breakdowns are inevitable

Okay didn't realize that Athena was also the goddess of vintage synthesizers.

By far, this is the most personally significant episode of PT yet. Thank you for giving me the vocabulary to share my experience with loved ones and to educate myself and others.

That brown tartan pattern blouse thing looks sooo cozy and I WANT!

I went to a Catholic school and around the time I started to ricochet wildy between "oh god am I gay??" and "oh phew no its fine I must be straight" because I didn't yet know bisexuality was a thing, I asked my English teacher if she thought being gay was wrong, and she looked so so sad and conflicted for a moment, then she said, "My main hobby is musical theatre." With a really kind 'I hope you know what I'm getting at' smile.

I didn't even hear the word "transgender" until I was a sophomore in high school, and by that point my mother had already drilled into my head about how almost every kind of body modification is a sin against God. I remember reading an article in a magazine about a trans man with a mix of horror and fascination. On one hand, I was like "this is something people can do? I'm allowed to be a boy if I want to?" and on the other, I was like "this goes against God's design for humanity. If everyone decided to choose their gender, then everyone would be a boy. Some of us have to be girls." It wasn't until much later that I learned that most girls /like/ being girls.

I'm having trouble with my mental health and your videos really help me, your presence calms me down and I also learn a lot. I'm so happy I found this. Your narration also helps me to relax and fall asleep when insomnia is kicking me. Luv

1:45 The “I’m not very good at it joke” had me repeating that short joke because of the LAYERS. 1. “I only know 3 things about maths” 2. (Holds up 4 fingers) 3. “1. I’m not very good at it” (same) 4. “B. I’m also not very good at it” (1->B, love it) 5. End of joke. A two item list, indicated by 4 fingers and said as “3 things” The perfect joke about being bad at maths as far as I care

“3 of my previous girlfriends turned out to be lesbians, and I still didn’t realize that I was trans”, I just gotta say: all of my male crushes that kept me “interested in straight men” turned out to be trans or non-binary and I still was surprised every single time it happened

As a Biology student its pisses me off entirley when people take the final line of a paper saying "more research is needed" then completely ignore anything in the body. More research is almost always needed.

It's been years since I discovered your channel. I hold it close to my mind and heart in a way. You provide quality work, insights and information. Thank you for that ❤

This episode made me think so much. Specifically the Hermeneutical injustice. I was recently watching a interview by Dr. Mike where he alluded to not wanting to give diagnosis to patients for fear of labeling their condition. Waxing about how labels may feed into how a patient sees themselves Even at times inferring that it may be a public danger to disperse information about disorders. As someone with a few medical acronyms to my name It outraged me and I couldn't find the words to explain why until today. How dare they even contemplate denying information and paint it as some sort of caring for the patient.

"ignorance is when the conversation never stops" - jackie jackson from the freedom report has entered the chat

Abigail: "This specific smoking allegory is NOT about fascism" Us: "yeah" *wink* "sure" Abigail: "No...really, it's not. It's about smoking" Us: "Yeah, totally, we get ya!"

For long time I only had a vague idea of transgender, and I only ever saw or heard about it in regards to trans women. Then I stumbled on a Jammiedoger video back in 2015 and all of the pieces smashed into place. I had never even considered the possibility of trans men existing, and yet I knew that was who I was. And that realization was so traumatizing that it took nearly another 5 years for me to come out. Bad ignorance! Go sit in the corner!

It gives me hope that something hateful like section 28, that was passed into law in my own lifetime, has so quickly (in relative terms) become something unthinkable in today's society. I wasn't given what I needed in order to understand my own bisexuality, or to be a trans ally, but I'm getting there anyway. By removing S28, my kid's generation are getting a huge head-start, which should lead to more tolerance and understanding in future society. The flip side is that, because it has happened so fast, many of the people who supported it at the time are still in power now. Maybe they pretend they weren't partly responsible for it, maybe they are still unashamed. I don't know which is worse.

''They're allowed to know everything they need to do their jobs, but absolutely nothing else about the world or humanity... so it's kind of like going to Cambridge'' YOU GO GIRL

I wrote a screenplay with a bi protagonist defying Section 28, and didn't realise I myself was bi for another four years. There was some mental gymnastics going on there. Excellent video as always.

This channel is absolutely phenomenal. I just discovered Abigail and her amazing presentations this morning. The production values, the content, and the expertise of the presenter make it a joy to watch and learn in way that is engaging and fun. Bravo!!!

Wow - this was my first video of yours I’ve watched and it was so well done! Time to binge. And I really appreciate how slowly and quietly you speak! It was so easy to follow along and absorb even while I was doing something else. 💕

Whenever an article says "says scientists", my guard goes up. Which scientist? Biologist? Chemist? Anthropologist? Archeologist? Cosmologist? And I think our culture hasn't confronted that, really, in America. We still have the cartoonish collective-image of a chemist blowing shit up in their lab through colorful chemicals in beakers and flasks. I know I see that guy when people say "scientist".

"I only know 3 things about mathematics: 1. I'm not very good at it. B. I'm not very good at it."

I love/appreciate your closed captions!

genuinely an incredible video, one of the platforms must watch channels. I can relate to the end where you talked about meeting a trans person for the first time, our sex ed at school was basically nothing, I didn't know anything about the LGBT community until I moved to a city with more people and met some, I was hanging out with a friend and she asked if I liked anyone, and I thought about it and said I don't like anyone or find anyone attractive in the way other people describe attraction, she asked if I was Asexual, obviously I asked what the hell is that. after a very long conversation where she described it and it perfectly matched how I was experiencing life and realised I was Ace. I didn't know you could just not be attracted to people normally, I didn't know it was ok to not actively pursue any sexual relations, I felt guilty for so long because I wasn't attracted to anyone and people expected me to be, I finnally felt comfortable to not be attracted to people and tell relatives I wasn't looking for a relationship.

"Three of my ex girl friends turned out to be lesbians and I still didn't realize I was trans" So, like, is this a common experience or what? Because the same exact thing happened with me

I was diagnosed as autistic when I was 26, it is the single most liberating and life changing experience I've ever had. I can't understate this enough. I hate when parents don't tell kids about a diagnosis. They think they're protecting their kids but the kids knows. We know we're different we just didn't know why and there is soooooooo much shame and guilt. Getting diagnosed set me free

You have a unique gift of creating "understanding" in a pleasant, intellectual way. Thanks for being there!

I often have these playing while Im drawing and I always appreciate the extra little captions Abigail does when I look up

cannot emphasize enough how much I want to steal the entire library "dark academia" look, what a banger of an outfit

I mean, it's no shirtless Abby in a Devil costume holding a snake, but that Riddler outfit certainly made me Feel Things.

Your videos are always the perfect balance of informative, entertaining, depressing, and uplifting. You are unparalleled in your ability to do all four in just the right amounts. I hope one day I can meet you in person and say exactly how thankful I am for the work that you do.

This is really some of your very best work, probably my favorite video of yours so far!!

like a lot of trans people i actually came out when i was really young, when i told my parents i felt 'like a boy in a girl's body', which they immediately shamed me into ignoring. i hadn't even heard the word 'transgender' before, and wouldn't until i joined tumblr in 2013 something completely unrelated. when i came out the second time, my mom actually tried to talk me out of it by telling me she had a nonbinary phase too, and that she's more into women but doesn't act on it because it didn't make sense to her to do. which makes me wonder how earlier generations would've turned out if growing up they'd had the same kind of access to information as millenials and after.

more hermeneutic violence: me not being informed about the concept of hermeneutic violence until this video, and thus never having gotten the opportunity to realize that "not being told gay people exist" and "never meeting a gay person until i was an adult" was in fact a form of harm (in the form of hermeneutic violence) being done to me as a child and as an adolescent. thanks for the video by the way i cried xoxo

Just found your channel today and watched 3-4 videos, I'm seriously impressed with the whole production, all high quality video, lighting, sound and of course the discussion.

The set design / theme game intensifies! I appreciate you, and your ability to light the veil of ignorance on fire with wit, humour and exquisite delivery 🖤 Only thing I found a little much was the running gag, tho I admit it's a very clever device to allow for people to stumble on their own ignorance. If they choose to :)
