Hi. I’m a lifelong learner and still hard at it even though I’ve been retired for six years. It’s amazing what you can learn when learning is your focus. I have a wider array of interests that Continues to expand. Two careers.... - Doug Kirk...
I still am amazed and in awe of some of the tiniest new lights exposed to me.
I hope learning never stops, and I appreciate that it hasn’t stopped yet. - [deleted]...

Intro
Vic the Aardvark here. Robert mentioned earlier than he drank from a hose as an 80s kid. About the same time, I had a metaphorical drink from a fire hose [IYKYK].

I am 58 and have never given two fucks about politics because I just always knew it was a joke, a scam, a game being run on the people. But the moves lately have caught my attention. Yet, I do not watch TV at all. for almost 10 years. Because it is an tool used to control perception and thereby behavior. And I like to be free from control. I have some very radical beliefs, but I am always interested in learning how other people feel and think about their life. I know I am intelligent enough to believe I do not know everything and also that every belief I have now has been expanded from something that came before it so all of my beliefs are subject to be expanded. so if you engage with me be prepared to not take anything I say as something I expect you to adapt to. I have strong feelings, radical beliefs, and I would love seeing if anyone else is fed up with the entire system as I am. 🤸🤸🤸🌼byAskAves...
