🚀 Ah, yet another groundbreaking revelation: humans are different! 🎨 Billions of #doodles, and we still need a study to tell us what a kindergarten child could guess. Next, maybe we'll discover water is wet. 🌊

Early.
I know.
I know!
Do you know?
What I know?
Because if you know and I know…
Maybe everybody else knows too.
And if we all know but nobody says what we know then we don’t know we all know even though we do know…
And that’s exactly how they like it.
Who are they?
You know.
I know.
And maybe everybod…Oh bother!
Never mind here’s your landscape #bee…#commonknowledge

“Common knowledge” is trusted as truth, yet history shows otherwise. From Van Gogh’s ear to the Titanic, and even post‑9/11 fears, repetition often turns myth into fact. This essay challenges the reliability of what we think we know.

In the early 90s, when I was just getting started with fitness, I tried explaining squats to my friend Brad. "Imagine you're sitting back into an invisible chair and back up again."
He looked confused. "What do you mean?"
This confused me as I thought my explanation was clear. So I demonstrated.
My demonstration confused him more. "You get into a chair like *that*?"
Now my boyfriend was confused by his confusion, too. We asked Brad to demonstrate how he sat in chairs. That's when we realized that he flung himself back, lifting his feet as he fell into his seat.
We had never noticed this about him before. We spent the next while trying to teach him how to sit with control.
Imagine making it to adulthood without knowing how to sit on a chair or toilet without flinging yourself onto it. I wonder how many he broke.
