I mean, it all goes around in circles.

Scraps of time
It’s funny how we all subscribe to the notion that we all have to work for a living. Why is that? In ancient times, people had their roles within the community, to help it survive.

While we’re dedicating to this notion our entire existence, with scraps of time left for ourselves, they’re undercutting our very existence. This is absurd!!
