I'm certain you aren't alone in this. You're probably one of the few to openly admit to confusion/mistake. The world needs more of you! 🙂

There'll be a delay because of it but I'm actively in the middle of resolving it with new information, I'll update you in twenty minutes," creates the kind of understanding and trust I want in my world.
This just feels the same.
Also, it really is a fascinating experience to briefly feel a little dizzy as you realize something you've believe is true simply isn't.

Prof. Sam Lawlersundogplanets@mastodon.socialNov 1, 2026, 4:50 PM@grb090423 @401matthall Biology is COMPLICATED and there's so much to learn! Don't feel bad. XKCD even has a comic exactly about learning that you don't know something: https://xkcd.com/1053/
