Saying ‘what kind of an idiot doesn’t know about the Yellowstone supervolcano’ is so much more boring than telling someone about the Yellowstone supervolcano for the first time.



School teaches you that ignorance is shameful, rather than being a person’s default AND ENTIRELY FIXABLE state. Sucks the fun outta learning, if you let it.

Will always reblog.



XKCD is my favorite comic of all time, for this reason. Tumblr could learn a huge lesson, especially from this comic.


if someone doesn’t know something, or says something wrong, do not shame them, teach them.




Xkcd, my client, striking again!

I linked this in a previous post, but it was a little chutes and ladders getting to the actual article.  This is much easier.
