I’ve been chewing on the concept of “knowledge as entertainment” to describe my unease with content that is… seemingly important but ultimately empty and it turns out there’s a Latin word for it: curiositas or the seeking of “distracting knowledge”.
"the menu that each of us is confronted with as we sit down at the buffet of content on any given day presents 1,000 times more food than any of us could possibly eat. So how do we even make decisions about what to consume?"
