Free speech is the right to say stupid shit. Capitalism is the right to buy and sell stupid shit. Tolerance is the right to do stupid shit. Fallibilism is the only idea that can secure these rights.

In 60secs, Stephen Krashen demonstrates how people acquire language. You *get it* instantly without translation. The problem becomes: how to get a constant feed of this type of material until you're fluent... So I built a tool which solves that specific problem @motherstoryco
