Frank Zappa was decades ahead of his time. He said this in 1981:

"Schools train people to be ignorant. They give you the equipment that you need to be a functional ignoramus."

"They prepare you to be a usable victim for a military industrial complex that needs manpower."

"As long as you're just smart enough to do a job, and just dumb enough to swallow what they feed you, you're going to be alright."

"Schools mechanically and very specifically try and breed out any hint of creative thought in the kids that are coming up."

Beautifully dealt with! And an example of how one may deal with one’s own inner critic - the journalist representing that niggling voice that may say ‘is this good enough’?

You got to give lots of credit to Eileen Gu for responding brilliantly back to the reporter with great confidence.

She looked him in the eye said that was a "ridiculous perspective" without any hesitation or fear. 😁

I wouldn't be surprised if Parade was D'Angelo's favorite Prince album. The drum groove for "Africa" was a direct nod to "I Wonder U." Sonically, the vocal shades, the underlying sitar, the rolling bass, and the constrating handclapping in "The Charade" always sounded like it could've been a Parade-era outtake.

Do you ever feel like you don’t have a choice in the matter?

There may be more going on that you realise…

In my latest Substack post I explore the idea of choices, and look at what choices we really have.
