Wasn't 'too big to fail' meant to refer to how a company cannot be allowed to collapse less it ruins the economy. Is the implication supposed to be that other countries will bail us out or is punditry a fundamentally flawed conxept?

Maybe either the War of 1812 and/or the Civil War. But the former was kickstarted by the US and then turned defensive, and the Civil War was the US defending itself from itself. So yes, with the caveat being the US was the one to start the wars in the first place.

It has baffled me for so long that we don't celebrate the elimination of wild smallpox to me. That was is, in my mind, probably the greatest human achievement so far, and it was only possible due to vaccines.

Reading this makes me think I should be arrested, lat alone be the one to write it.

Yeah, gets even wilder when you live with someone who's job is tied to the policies that are currently being shredded by the government. Haha, wild.

Not necessarily that far off. I was touring apartments recently, and one of the places I checked out was a bit of a more modern or fancy one, and it lacked an oven. Did still have a stovetop at least.

Well, now I want to read it more.

Somewhat relatedly, my own issue with brain upload is with consciousness and how we don't know how it is created. Also, a large part of thinking requires the usage of hormones, and as far as I know, I can't stress my computer with cortisol. I have to do it with hundreds of open tabs instead.

Got to step 3, currently a non-revolutionary communist. We'll see about the gun in the future.

Yeah, you know what else can improve your grammar?

Either just the basic autocorrect that comes with most text software or reading up on the rules of grammar.

Same, I just hate it. Who thought business Facebook was a good idea? (Well, we know who, its the people who find joy in using linkedin and not existential horror)

I presume its because being that high causes one to dehumanize or not to care about others, because how else can you think oneself good, and thus one can start to treat others as playthings or mere nuisances, because they really aren't people now, are they?

Even when I thought like that, my thought was that rewarding that tendency should be done for when someone is actually doing something good, like, I don't know, giving tax breaks to companies that didn't have accidents, paid their workers well. or something. And also make jobs like nursing pay well.
