We're all slaves. Slaves to oxygen. Think about it, look around you with your eyes open wide, maan. If something happens and there isn't any...
And a farmer's crop can die and a hunter/gatherer can break his legs. I have money and farmers can grow crops. Neither of us is worse off than the...
Yes I'm dependent on grocery stores. We all are. Good thing I'll always have money and there will always be food at the grocery store. This...
I didn't like the droning monotone narrative or that there was way too much detail that I didn't care about. I tend to be romantically minded and...
