Philosophical Questions

Last night I decided think on a philosophical level. I posed multiple questions to myself, with the first one being: if the world is round, how does a leveler work? Deep, I know. But really, what is the science behind a leveler being level if we live on a round earth? I would like someone to explain it to me. Also, if you were to put something into a time capsule fifteen years ago, what would you put in? How do you even decide what would be important enough to put into a time capsule? And why do we value really old things or really new things? Why don’t we find the things in-between old and new to be fascinating enough? And why do we get bored? How is that a thing? What determines whether or not we decide ourselves to be feeling bored? Also, since no one on earth can completely comprehend and understand everything that exists, how can we be comfortable being so ignorant? When was it we passed the specific point from wanting to know, understand, discover, and invent everything to being content at not knowing everything? Or are we not content? And why does human hair absorb so much water? Isn’t that a counterproductive evolutionary trait? What good does absorptive hair do for us? I guess it can clean up the oil spills, but what else?

Sometimes I find myself confusing myself…
