In this episode Phil suggests that we are all bloopers (and that is OK). Micah and K Sera discuss this and other things.

Show notes:

Bloopers!

 

K Sera's after thoughts:

So, I’m disappointed that we spent so much time talking about appearance, and that bloopers were conflated as being ‘flaws’. It just kills me a little that appearance ranks so high when assigning value to people and consumables. It does factor in, of course, but I wish it wasn’t so heavy of an influence in our lives.

I find value in bloopers. Actual blooper reels at the end of a story or episode of something are often entertaining. I love them. Keep them and share them. They are technically mistakes, but someone found them funny or novel and decided to share that with consumers. They aren’t actually flaws, but curated failures with value stemming from experience.

Life creates bloopers all the time. DNA mutations pop up within species giving useful and highly adaptive traits a chance of being passed down to the next generation. DNA bloopers facilitate evolution. We all come from bloopers.

Also, Micah, let people finish their thoughts. ಠ_ಠ
