"Dodging Dumbs: Mental Filters for Modern Nonsense" is not a manual for retreating from the world-it's a complete revision toolkit for facing it with patience, poise, and a bit of playful detachment. This isn't about turning yourself into a saint or suppressing your reactions. It's about learning how to respond to nonsense without letting it own you. Because, truth be told, the nonsense out there doesn't have nearly as much power as we sometimes give it.
We live in an age where nonsense travels faster than common sense-and sticks around longer, too. From unsolicited advice to illogical opinions, social media spats to office absurdities, nonsense has evolved into a daily companion. The challenge, however, isn't in eliminating it (good luck with that), but in learning how to deal with it-without losing your composure, clarity, or sanity.
