It’s hard to imagine a worldview of #magic — flashing-talking boxes (that you must buy), loud flying canisters (that fall, and kill the passengers), unpredictable #human behaviors (that repeat, regularly) — and an inner soundscape filled by inner monologue and autotuned lyrics.

Things just happen. Words appear from nowhere. Autotune means nothing. A surface might be quartz, aluminum, or wool, but you don’t know the difference or whence it came.

Is it a world of a child? But without the #curiosity?

Has it dismayed you as well to hear the stereotypical “weak #female upper torso” argument of “I need a man to open a jar”? When all you need is a flat screwdriver or equivalent to slightly bend the screw-on lid and breach the air seal?

This is a #curiosity and #IQ problem.

Not a brute #force problem, in my opinion. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Oh, and, by the way, the grip force to generate torque required to open most jars can be trained in human females in 4-8 months. YouTube female #climbers and #crossFit athletes for concrete examples. 🙄
