an interconnected textbook on everything


When I was younger,
I had a thought
that

Everything is Connected.


I had to share
what I had learned
because
Everything made sense.


I wrote this book
And put it 
online
so that you can read it
in your own time.


Follow your thoughts
as they come to mind.
Ask weird questions
Like 
what even is time?


There is no order,
no beginning or end.
Each section’s an essay
you can read, or listen.


It’s about our existence,
our growth and mistakes.
So enjoy your time reading,
and take plenty of breaks.


It can be tempting
to jump between thoughts.
But go slow, my dear human,
because… It’s a lot!


You have never read a book like this. Each section is self-contained and fairly short and you can read them in any order you want!
You are about to start reading an online, interconnected, textbook about our human experience in our shared world. I have separated it into two parts: the World and the Human that we use to exist here. There are a few overview sections and many more sections on specific topics.
Let your curiosity guide you and take your time!
At any time, feel free to stop reading and reflect on the ideas that you just read. If you want to learn more than what I include here, go online and do your own research. You have all the tools you will ever need right at your fingertips.
This book is meant to provide a framework of existence. Think of it as a “bookshelf of knowledge.” There are plenty of spots on the shelves yet to be filled with future discoveries by you and others. I did not write this book to serve as the entire library, it is only meant to help organize our understanding of this world.
We are a part of this world and we have the power to make a change in ourselves to affect everything around us. All it takes is knowledge and an intention to make a change.
We are not the first people to exist here. Many of the people who came before us wrote down their discoveries and revelations to grant us the ability to accomplish more than they could ever have dreamed.

This textbook is the culmination of several hundred hours of work done by several younger versions of myself.


Originally called Your/The Human Manual, the majority of the research and writing was done as a 22 year old. The audio recordings were made at age 23. A bit of editing happened at age 25 when the distinction of World & Human was added. I have updated the links to bring it back online and left a few preface comments at age 29.


There may be future edits but for now, I will leave the textbook as it is so that you can read/listen to the ideas of younger me.
