[FRIAM] SCOTUS

[Gillian Densmore]

the only thing the fucking  court showed was their a bunch testical
sweats  with the moral compass a of a drunk delisional mornanic
sociopathic dakotaraptor, and probably the brains of a permameciam.
the only good thing it's for now proving to your therapist why you
need  weed and xanax.
I hope everyone now goes around murdering and boning each other
leaving the poor women  without. I hope everyone is miserable then
since that's only thing the country wants is to be more toxic than the
elephants foot and the bathroom of a tacobell combined.
maybie in 200 years will get over it. for now e just want want to be
assholes to each other.

What's the difference between, say, a lab beaker and a lab method? I argue not much, the beaker is simply a very formal [sub]workflow and the method is informal. I guess the trick is when (not if) methods/processes are prematurely (and preemptively) fossilized into technlogy, behaviors into components.

The process[es] that are locked-in have something to do with money and infrastructure we use for individuals to engage with society. Money doesn't seem like the best way to do that, to me ... it feels a bit like a poll tax ... "pay to play" is resoundingly denigrated amongst the younger people I know.
