Pay someone to keep fridge full and house clean. You gain half a life more.

I feel embarassed because people vilified my comment about Boris using this piece of news with a political cover motive. I am sorry, saying this is different than being a negationist. I hope more people get it now that I honestly try to explain myself better. Thanks.

They own your belly and food wish, as if they would grow you for money.

Exactly this: where is that exaggerated sense of entitlement coming from? Who else finds it insane? It is not only caste. It is a sense of superiority.

What are the costs of this fantasy? How much more expensive per tonne, 10 fold?
That gut feeling of looking at something fake...

Same with the Golden Hat discussed here before.

Is the medieval period more prone for attribution of fabrications?
