> the only difference between a "game" to "play" and a "war" to "fight" is the stakes, so which one is life https://t.co/M1rQbRlvhN

now silly luxurious humans take life too seriously, where they could go hours every day in air-conditioned internet-connected friend-supported leisure but waste their entire lives taking them too seriously not enough wisdom, not using the gift given https://t.co/czPlPa760q
