This isn’t a complete list by any means — but it’s a start.

Now you might be wondering, why am I listing all these subjects?

Why Am I Listing All These Subjects?

Well, I want to create a blog about the study of everything. Sounds cool, right?

The idea is to write about each of these subjects in a simple, easy-to-understand way so that anyone can understand.

Now, you might be thinking that I’m some all-knowing god who has just arrived on Earth to write a blog and share his vast expanse of knowledge with all of humanity.

But no.

I’m not a God. (Shocking, I know.)

And I definitely don’t know everything. I swear. But I do want to write regularly on all these subjects.

And no, this blog has nothing to do with earning money by doing what I always wanted to do.
(Okay, maybe it has everything to do with money. And something to do with keeping my motivation alive in order to achieve this grand goal of learning everything that this world has to offer.)

So how will I do that?

My Plan: Research, Learn, Share

I’ll do what any human does: research. That means Googling things, watching videos on YouTube and maybe reading books (if I can find free PDFs because I’m just another broke college student who hasn’t even started on the assignment that is due tomorrow... and still isn’t starting). 

After doing the research, I’ll write a blog post on the topic or make a video on it or both.

By the way, I got this subject list from ChatGPT — which is another resource I'm going to use for research.

But don’t be fooled into thinking I just copy-pasted it.
I literally tried to sort, count, and remove repeated subjects by writing a Python script.
(I had learned some Python earlier, so I wasn’t going in on this coding side-quest blind.)
The proof is down below.

Why Not Just Pick a Niche Like Everyone Else?

You might be wondering, “Why not just pick one niche and write about things you’re already familiar with?”

Good question.

Let me tell you the backstory.

Backstory: The Physics Phase

There was a time in my life — my teenage years, to be exact — when I believed I could understand the world just by studying Physics.

Why did I think that?
Mostly because of my lack of knowledge and because I spent way too much time watching a channel called Discovery Science on TV.

I learned about Einstein's theory of relativity, the twin paradox (which, fun fact, is actually a misconception), bits of quantum mechanics that I don't even remember now, black holes, wormholes — all that cool stuff.

When I was watching all that as a kid, I thought I was really smart — I thought I understood everything. I genuinely thought I was going to be an awesome physicist, just like Einstein.

But now I know that was probably just the Dunning–Kruger effect.

Still, Physics is the only subject I ever learned a little deeply. And yes — Physics does explain how things work:

• How water boils

• Why lightning falls

• What the universe is made of (and no, it’s not just atoms)

• How massive black holes form

• How refrigerators, electricity, phones, and transistors work

You get the point.

But as I grew up, I realized there’s more to life than just how physical and mechanical things work.

As I grew — physically — so did the pile of questions in my head.

Questions like:

• Why is the world such a mess?

• Why do wars happen?

• Why don’t politicians do what they promise after getting elected? And why don't we do anything about it?

• Why do schools feel like prisons? Why don’t they actually help kids learn?

• Why isn’t all the unpaid work done by women at home recognized? Why isn’t domestic work considered “real” work?

• Why is there so much hatred between men and women?

• Why do people commit rape?

• Why are victims of rape often blamed?

• Why does racism still exist?

• Why are people still dying of hunger when there’s enough food in the world for everyone?

• Why are people struggling so much just to exist in this world?

• Why do we get depressed or anxious?

• Why do natural disasters happen? Can we predict them before they happen? 

And so on.

I realized, to understand this world, Physics just isn't enough. To truly understand the world, I needed to look beyond atoms and equations.

Also, there’s a LOT to learn.

I don’t think anyone can fully understand the world — they might think they do (hello again, Dunning–Kruger) but they actually don't.

But I still want to try. I might never be able to learn everything, but I’m going to die trying.

I’m not trying to get a PhD in everything. That would be insane. I just want basic knowledge of all the fields — enough to know what each teaches us about the world. Then, maybe I’ll dive deeper where it makes sense.

So, What’s the Goal?

I won’t write in-depth academic essays (at least not always). I’ll focus on topics and questions that I find interesting or personally relevant — and write about them in a way that’s clear, simple, and (hopefully) entertaining.

I also want to answer the kind of random questions everyone has but often forgets to ask, like:

• Why do we feel thirsty after eating a salty bowl of ramen?

• Why do our bones get weaker without enough calcium?

• How do computers work when they’re just made of tiny switches  aka transistors?

• Why does lightning fall?

The Real Goal

The goal here is simple: to learn something from all this research and writing — and maybe, just maybe, make enough money to afford a cup of coffee that isn't made from a 2-rupee sachet of Nescafe Classic.

I hope that whoever reads this blog can find something of value in it — or at least walks away a little more curious than before.

So, let’s figure out the world together.

Got a topic you’ve always wondered about? Send it my way — I'm literally on a mission to learn everything, one blog post at a time.
