Satisfying the borrow checker.

Great oral exercise.

Well, no one got raped and murdered to produce the bread.

if “feeling valued” is a human emotion, it’s not one I’m familiar with

If you think you were making a joke up there, you might not actually have a sense of humour.

don’t forget yachts and cruise ships

Mass times velocity squared, that’s why the huge difference in outcome for small changes in speed

like saying you’d rather have weasels down your pants than badgers

I still think that you are being overly literal for an argument (“There is no such thing as a free market”) that doesn’t actually get you anywhere. If free markets don’t exist, then personal freedom doesn’t exist for the exact same reasons. But to get there, you have to rely on the idea that “you can argue” without examining whether those arguments have any merit. Nobody takes “free” to mean “absolute freedom”. It’s always relative. This is a silly semantic argu… oh. This is silly. Damn it. Why didn’t anyone stop me.

First point doesn’t hold together. You’re relying on the reader conflating senses of “free”.

we get it, you’re rich

Also you, probably: “There are no atheists in foxholes”

I don’t bike unless I have to carry cargo or it’s going to take more than an hour to walk, because of how hostile and aggressive drivers have become. I miss just getting on my bike without a care.

Look, I need to spend my efforts on the toxicity and climate collapse apocalypse. I would WELCOME zombies at this point.

That’s simply not true in the big picture. Biking is a net benefit virtually everywhere; the risks are more than offset by the benefits to your lifespan. Biking is the opposite of dangerous.

Hey, this guy isn’t an ant! Swarm him!!

It’s just not true that no one desires to die. If you want to kill yourself, you’re way more likely to use a car than a bike. But more likely to use a train than a aeroplane…

meanwhile IQ is not linear or log

What special insight are you suggesting Hawking had about the future of the human race? This is exactly the kind of nothing hypothesis I’m talking about, yes.
