If you want to better understand a particular subject, argue with yourself about it. Imagining both sides of an argument gives you a more sophisticated understanding of the subject because you’re likely to link more problems and solutions, find more criticisms, and gain a deeper knowledge of both your own views, and opposing ones.

My epiphany

So I've always just assumed that I'm the bad person in every situation ever. I've always been the one that peope have to have a "one on one" with. I've never been able to keep friends because of my constantly changing personality and repetitive reasoning as to why I do the things I do. I lie when I feel like it would benefit the other, and I am more selflessly emotional that a lie because it seems less quarrelsome than a heartbreaking truth. My sister is the same way, she just has to use it more. I have always been in a serious relationship, and done not-so-good things in those times; Most of which caused the dissipation of said relationships. I take full responsibility in my actions and hope that people do not take it as a inspiration, rather than a guideline of what not to do. My sister, however, has diverse events that were taken to the same extent of mine, with harder knockbacks than "This one time..." to get to the point, I am a harmless human being with addictive attitudes and my sister is the same way, so together we make bad choices that make (or break) good stories. As toxic as we can be together because our actions and intentions don't add up, I will never, ever let the stereotypical synopses of a "decent woman" get in between the connection of my sister and I. If we are considered "misguided" or "untamed" then I will do everything I can to show my succession, but if my time with my sister is considered a degression, you are a degression to me.

Mary Somerville is the reason for the word ‘scientist.’ A self-taught mathematician, astronomer, and physicist, she was a master of connecting the physical sciences. In 1834, she’d impressed a historian who found himself unable to publicly praise her because the only common description for that sort of scholar was ‘man of science.’ He then coined the term 'scientist’- but it wasn’t intended to be a gender-neutral noun, it was specifically a reference to Mary Somerville’s expertise. Source Source 2 Source 3
