"...no amount of new information will advance you..."
It was the ongoing news and worry that compelled my move from the bankers' fiat to self-custody gold. Then onto Bitcoin.
It was the ongoing news and worry that compelled me from Google Glass to GrapheneOS. From Windows and open texting to Linux and PGP-encrypted messaging.
It was ongoing news and worry that compels me to carefully read all contracts' fine print, no matter how long the ALL CAPS wall of text. To be so defiant as to line out buried clauses, or retype the signed contract with clauses quietly removed after being told I may not make such pen marks to the contract's template.
Oh, ignorance was bliss indeed a long time ago. But ongoing news and worry have metamorphosized me from an open tissued slug to a hardened turtle.
