that’s still work: you’re creating something of value for others and/or for society

Honestly I put "NEED to get paid in order to live" but changed it to "I NEED to work" because of this. Even if I just decided to find a forest in the middle of nowhere to claim as my own, build a house, raise animals and farm the land I'm still working.

But since I do enjoy my hobbies of carpentry, metalworking and leatherworking, I don't really consider them work in the same sense. You're 100% correct.

I make stuff for people all the time, but it's on my own schedule when I feel like working on something, and I only accept orders when I feel like it. If I tried to do that full time, it's now not really up to me if I go work on something today. I have to or I get backed up, the customer gets pissed, and I'm losing money. Or the equivalent favors/barter.

I have never, and I mean TRULY NEVER wanted to work.

But I am not stupid, so I know I NEED to work in order to live.

Not wanting to give the majority of my day to a company that makes more in one second than 10,000 minimum wage employees make in a month is not "being lazy".

1/3 is already taken by sleeping, and you fucking want me to just give up another 1/3? For THIS shit pay? Entirely Fuck Off.

Plus it costs me money just to get to work.

That's right up there with calling Epsteins victims "underage women" instead of CHILDREN

Listen, it was a celerity-induced accelerated somatic mutation rate, they're totally fine now. Warp 10 is super safe.

No, they do a 360 into dinos and moonwalk away.

I read them, UN.

So there's at least one more!

There's no FOMO, there's no reward for continuing on when you the people in front of you slow down, or you've been told to turn around.

There's specific mentalities that contribute to crowd crush events and an organized peace march just doesn't have that.

Also not an expert, just hyper fixated on disasters for awhile and crowd crushes and similar "stampede" events were a solid week of videos, papers, and news articles.

People won’t stand up for their neighbors and community when Nazies are rounding the others up

Because it doesn't directly affect them yet.

"Then they came for my coffee", and all that.

Plus, im sure more than a few of the agents involved were salty at being yanked off real jobs to comb through thousands of pages to hide evidence their president is a rapist.

Pinch or 12 of salt and all that, but a coworker's brother WAS in the FBI until June, and apparently a lot of people are actively quitting or bare minimum looking for new jobs specifically due to Trump and his administration

There's one just like that near where I grew up and now that I'm older I want to ask them about heating/cooling, because it's got to be so much cheaper than a regular house.

I doubt they would get away with "almost zero" though since it's basically buried with a small hill rather than dug down or cut into stonea cliff.

I imagine maintaining it can be a bitch though.

Wait till next year and you will see people burning down the White House.

Ooh, are we throwing an apology party for the Canadians?
