    You’re talking about a country where “I want a lawyer, dawg” is not sufficient to be provided a lawyer, because the cops can reasonably think that you want a dog that’s a lawyer. The legal system in the US is beyond saving.

        Every part of our collective absurdity permeates all facets of our life. Just look at our ad space and signage. Food requirements or lack thereof. Civil service (one worker, six supervisors). Everything in any system of ours is absurd on levels no one person can truly fathom.

        It’s our strength and weakness.

          “Credo quia absurdum”, translated “I believe because it is absurd”

          After adopting this belief, a peace will descend upon you
