  My 5th grade teacher specifically said she wouldn’t allow them in the class. She told parents she wanted us to have a plain blue binder (the one that was covered in blue fabric), some dividers and paper. She then proceeded to teach us something no there before or after spent time on: how to properly organize our work. You were awesome, Dr. Cross!

  I laughed way more at this than I think it deserved. But damn, it is funny.

  Exactly. Humans are wasteful and expensive. One day, capitalists will realize if they don’t hire any humans, nobody but the capitalists will have money to buy anything.

  I read all the Jack Reacher books a couple years ago, and one of the fascinating things about the character is his aversion to owning things. In some of the books, he talks about it a little and it’s an interesting insight to that worldview. I think they kind of stopped talking about it in newer books, and the character has gotten kind of less interesting because of it. At one point, he inherits a house, and that seems to become a minor trauma for him!
