This is not poetry, it’s not even real
So it’s 2024 and the world is all buzzing about the Taylor Swift tour, and as usual I may have something to say about it. This is a phenomenon, the popularity of this woman is incredible, and what an impact her popularity has… But is it the person, the product, or is this thing that Continue reading

Correct, yet stupidly
If you arrive at the same conclusion, but you use reasoning to get there, as someone else who arrives there by prejudice or a ridiculous theory, then your conclusion is more valid, even though it has the same solidity.
