late night thoughts: there is absolutely nothing wrong with asking questions.

I think people are conditioned after a certain age to think that asking questions somehow means you're less intelligent than everyone around you.

When in fact, it's those who ask questions that prove to be the most engaged. Go figure.

At some point I realized that trying to look smart in front everyone is actually not smart if I still don't know what the hell is going on.

And guess what? turns out everyone is just as confused as me so we all losing.

Asking too many questions is 10000000x better than asking no questions.

How do you expect to get better/wiser if you assume that you have all the answers? There is always something new to learn. Always.

Anyone who knows me personally or has been part of the Twitter fam for a minute knows that I ask HELLA questions.

Why sit in confusion when a simple hand raise or tweet can clarify reality?

There is no shame in pursuing knowledge and we need to stop shaming people for simply desiring to understand the world around them.

If you're an educator and you shame students for asking questions, you're in the wrong profession. Abort mission.

Young people should always have the full LIBERTY of asking as MANY questions as they'd like. Educators who don't agree with this aren't educators.

Also the assumption that "smart people don't ask questions" is actually rooted in elitism and a bunch of other stuff.

There are simply people whose humanity is never questioned, which allows them unprecedented access and power to just be.

People will say someone is "genius" only to then assume that they didn't ask questions. So tell me, how does one find out the answers to life's questions without asking questions in the first place?

The math is, in fact, not mathing.

On a more personal note, people who don't ask questions make assumptions and assumptions are ~dangerous~.

People avoid hard questions because they want to make easy assumptions about beliefs they already have. Guess what brings clarity? Questions.

Questions literally make the world go round.

So, ask more of them as often as you can. That is all.
