People don't imagine what it was like then. It was wild. Wild in a sort of you're all alone all the time, except when you physically is hanging out or at home, and no one knows what's going on. At all. Some people have theories but they are insane. School teaches you things that are compley useless for living right now.

My family had a full encyclopedia that they bought one book at a time right around when I was born in the 80s. By the time I was 10 it moved into my bedroom and I'd often stay up too late reading random things.

Downside was that it was already out of date geopolitically by the time I started thinking about politics.

Thank all the medical and educational texts that chose blue to identify veins returning to the heart with a blue color and arteries away from the heart as red. A simple color choice to differentiate and somehow someone decided that this was the color of blood.

There was also that one guy who was 3 years older than you but hanged out with your friend group on occasion and told you things like where kids come from.
