  • I absolutely don’t like working. But I like things. My basic needs are insufficient for me to be comfortable and happy.

    I would choose to work so I could go to the movies, buy video games, eat and drink decadent things, pursue hobbies, travel, etc.

    Enough food, enough shelter, enough mobility, and enough telecommunication ironically isn’t enough for me.

    I’ve been fortunate to never have been only scraping by. I don’t believe many people would choose it and it absolutely baffles me that so many people believe that so many people would.













  • I’m not a scientist, I don’t know one way or the other if there are “cleaner” fossil fuels. But I believe the Exxon CEO when he claims there are.

    Hanlon’s Razor doesn’t apply to CEOs. It’s always 100% conscious malicious choices.

    While it’s easy to believe Exxon would make up “we could have done it cleaner but it cost more than the market would bear” its much more in tune with big oil’s real strategy of “we absolutely knew about it and beyond doing nothing, we actively suppressed action about it and spent a lot of money ensuring no one else would too.”
